The goal behind this Historical Adaptation design was to create a bold, dramatic, and luxurious space that reflects the style of the Hollywood Regency era. The intention was to use neutral colors to create a backdrop for a complimentary hue. There are luscious  textiles and sophisticated furnishings to give the space a calm, relaxing vibe. The space designed is a relaxation spot located in a basement.
