Glossy, glamorous and unafraid of mirror and gold.

Hollywood Regency

Hollywood Regency is old-Hollywood glamour brought home: lacquer, mirror, brass, bold color and plush fabrics, arranged with confident symmetry. It is dressier than Art Deco and more playful. It suits bedrooms, dressing rooms and living rooms meant for entertaining.
