It’s Oscar weekend and I will have a bottle of bubbly chilling while I check out the red carpet arrivals and cheer on my favorite Oscar contenders. To heck with Best Actor /Actress or Picture. Here are my picks for Oscar winning rooms from movies for people who like design….
I loved, loved, loved everything about Marie Antoinette. My god it is Versailles already!
Or Brideshead Revisited…
I still gasp a little when I see the winter palace in Dr. Zhivago….
The Great Gatsby… ( Can’t wait to see the sets on DiCaprio’s version)
For some mod inspiration- Love the Doris Day +Rock Hudson movies like Pillow Talk …
Remember the oh- so- chic automated bachelor pad?
Leo Di Caprio looked dashing in this Aviator living room
Didn’t you just love Diane Keaton’s house in the Hamptons in Something’s Gotta Give…
I am carrying around this clipping of the living room in It’s Complicated as inspiration for a my family room redo.
But my all time favorite movie design muse is Rosalind Russell’s Auntie Mame. How many times did they makeover the staircase? This film could be a CEU class in decorative arts!
What movies have tripped your trigger that you would recommend for design pros or design aficionados?
