fashion week lounge

kind of cheezy & swarmy lounge at fashion week nyc

from the luxist:

Each year Mercedes-Benz partners with a new designer, and this year they chose an interiors classic, Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams, creators of some of the most innovative and comfortable furniture design in the country. The lounge was influenced by Mercedes-Benz latest ad campaign for their new SLS AMG, a modern reinterpretation of their classic 1954 Gullwing. The ad, taken by groundbreaking photographer Nick Knight features German supermodel Julia Stegner, who wears a Gareth Pugh metal dress inspired by the design of the SLS AMG itself. The futuristic photo set the mood for the forward thinking behind Mercedes in the lounge.

Mitchell Gold stopped by the lounge once complete to talk about his vision behind the decor. "We started with recognizing Mercedes-Benz's new introduction of the great SLS AMG," Gold told Luxist. "We thought it was very cool looking, very sleek, and yet when you're sitting in the cockpit you're enveloped in comfort." The resulting lounge mixed modern and classic elements with a white vinyl tufted bar with silver buttons, white Lucite coffee tables, gunmetal vinyl ottomans, and insanely soft white faux suede loveseats.

battle of the big gay sofas

while douche-de-corno posts yesteryear's stale joke about a lame penis chandelier, gwd being an equal opportunist posts the more on-trend vagina light switch. thanks 2 a loyal reader 4 sending me this fab light switch.
douche-de-corno also posts about big gay sofas, referring to mitchell gold & bob williams who pitched their new book to her.

it's a nice enough book, & i love these guys. i caught them last week on the today show & they r as cute as can b.


but the designing couple i like better is william diamond and anthony baratta who wrote a book called all- american.
they are precious & they rock the decor 2. i kind of get them mixed up with the other 2 - they all look related.


check out this backsplash!
& check out the pierced tin on these doors. let's get out the hammer & screw driver & have at some sheets of tin.

luv the way these guys make country smart & chic.

the print on the couch is pure wit, especially with the horsey sculpture behind it.

luv the dining room 2.
& plaid will never die! just ask alexander mcqueen and vivenne westwood & every catholic girl u know or stripper that rocks a uber mini plaid skirt on the pole.

both books are on amazon.
u can go to pointed leaf press 2 turn the pages of all-american. it can't replace a book & it is annoying, but still u get 2 see this book is worth having.
so which big gay sofa do u like best? be a douche & discuss.
