"Deco Deluxe\nExotic woods, geometric motifs, and high-gloss finishes distinguish the first-rate furnishings that predominate in AD's roundup of Art Deco\u2013inspired rooms\nArt Deco styling \"seemed to be the best way to achieve a stately, timeless result,\" Paris-based architect Jean-Louis Deniot says of his design for a family's three-story house in New Delhi. In the elegantly sleek master bedroom, clean lines and strong verticals offset the luxe golden fabrics that fill the space. The table lamp is from 1stdibs.com, and the shade fabric is by Leli\u00E8vre. (August 2010)\nIn Geoffrey Bradfield's Art Deco\u2013inspired living room on Park Avenue in Manhattan, he mixed ancient artifacts and modern art, including a second-century Roman head and a Tam Ochiai painting. \"I love unapologetic glamour\u2014the world of Hollywood movies from the 1930s\u2014those shimmering mirages of penthouse high life. My aim here was to create the same kind of all-out seduction in miniature,\" he says. The carpet, his own design, is from Stark. The settee is from Christie's, and chairs are covered in a Clarence House fabric. (September 2008)\nNaomi Leff designed the Manhattan duplex of Nancy and Elliot Wolk, who have amassed a formidable art collection, including modern and contemporary masters (everything from Paul C\u00E9zanne to Jean-Michel Basquiat), as well as Asian, African, and pre-Columbian pieces. \"Modern with Art Deco and Asian influences creates a visually dynamic setting for their art,\" Leff says. Willem de Kooning's Untitled VI, 1985, dominates the living room. At right is an Edgar Degas bronze. (July 2002)\nJames Marzo decorated a residence in San Francisco for a client who was determined to blend her museum-quality art collection with salvaged industrial objects of humble provenance. The designer gave the breakfast room a dramatic tuxedo effect, painting the walls black and the trim cream. A Murano-glass chandelier hangs over a circa-1940 French parchment-covered dining table. A colorful collection of Clarice Cliff pottery, circa 1920\u201340, lends vibrance to the room. (April 2008)\nThomas Britt gutted a client's 15th-floor apartment in Manhattan to create a polished home in the sky. For the media room, he thought to \"keep it simple and classic\u2014the way Jean-Michel Frank would have done it.\" The Frankophile designer proceeded to have the whole room, including cabinetry, floor-to-ceiling paneling, and a wall of bookcases, built of finely grained rift oak with a bleached and pickled finish. The 1972 oil painting is by John McLaughlin. The barrel-back-chair upholstery is from Glant, and the shades are from Window Modes. (February 2005)\nMusic executive Clive Davis was after an Art Deco flavor when he merged his New York penthouse with the apartment below: \"Its theatrical quality and its verve have always appealed to me.\" To help realize his vision, Davis hired Harry Schnaper, who also believes that nothing beats Art Deco for infusing a prewar Manhattan apartment with a distinctive drama and elegance. Pictured: A stairwell links the two levels. Curved walls paneled in Macassar ebony are pierced with portholes to evoke a Streamline Moderne ship; the stair risers and treads are constructed out of Macassar ebony and black granite. (May 1998)\nInterior designer Charles Allem collaborated with client Colin Cowie, the celebrity party planner, to renovate and transform two New York City apartments into a residence and office. For the decor, Cowie wanted to evoke the feeling of the Deco period not only through furniture but also in terms of mood. Pictured: Rich textures and colors unify the master bedroom. The 1940s mirrored screen is French; the tufted olive-green velvet headboard wall conceals a window. (November 2000)\nIn the heart of Georgetown, Washington D.C.\u2013based decorator Thomas Pheasant renovated the gatehouse of a 1921 mansion for himself. He designed most of the furnishings, which reflect his style of refinement without preciousness, luxury without ostentation, and boldness without aggression. His living room sofas pay homage to Art Deco; Melville Price's Minotaur, 1962, provides a strong burst of color in an otherwise neutral room. (September 2003)\nCandy &amp;amp; Candy's head designer, Martin Kemp, created a 17,500-square-foot penthouse in La Belle Epoque, a building that overlooks Monte Carlo. The port suite features Helmut Newton photographs displayed against walls paneled in cashmere. (November 2009)\nTo create a polished interior for a client's Manhattan pied-\u00E0-terre, Scott Snyder combined a muted palette with key Moderne furnishings. Snyder says he prefers when Art Deco is \"used in a certain way\u2014if, for example, every piece of upholstery is not of the period.\" Pictured: In the living room, the designer arranged multiple seating areas around a central black-lacquer table. To tone down the period atmosphere, he chose Art Deco styles for the wood-frame armchairs but classic English styles for the fully upholstered pieces. A 1990 work by Joel Shapiro, right, adds color to the room. (March 2004)\n\"She's a sailor, and the entire house is about the great ocean liners of the 1930s,\" says Naomi Leff of Joan Lappin's Manhattan townhouse, which Leff designed. Anigre paneling and Art Deco furnishings embellish the theme. A Cubist work by Jeanne Rij-Rousseau hangs in the living area flanked by a pair of Macassar-ebony armchairs and a curvaceous '30s U table. (October 1997)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
