Design Book Preview

If you’ve heard Peggy and other D Home staff members bragging around town about this year’s D Design Book, then you know what’s in store for you. One of our features includes what looks good to designers and what they never want to see again. Summer being summer, not all designers were able to respond by the deadline. Here’s what James McInroe said:What looks good to me now?
-1960s, 1970s, and 1980s furniture
-Lucite, stainless steel, lacquered goatskin, lacquered exotic leather, highly polished exotic woods
-French Empire, Biedermeier, and Louis XVI furniture
-Art pottery
-Jet set interiors of the 1970s revisited.

2) What so I never want to see again?
-Rooms in multiple tones of vanilla
-Rooms full of 1940s French furniture
-Safe good taste
