Palace Wallpaper?

Rei Kawakubo. 

This is an old project (circa 2006 for Comme des Garcons).

Photos of grand palaces were blown up to life size images and papered onto the walls. The rooms are linked by irregular shaped openings through which one can see other images. Waaaahhhh!

The 1920's inspired atmosphere is just luxurious in detail.

Clift Hotel, San Francisco

Was recently at the Clift Hotel designed by Phillipe Starck in San Francisco.
I was fascinated by the glass details and wood panels. It reminded me of my grandparents crystal glasses. Chic!

To go along with my retail obsession and the surreal....

I love the design shops that as you walk outside through the windows you already get the element of surprise. It doesn't matter what they are selling at first you just HAVE to get inside and check it out. Packaging is key. Interior Design is like packaging for the product but in a larger sense. Make a good packaging, you can pretty much sell anything.

Simple and creative. Like.
