And the Oscar Goes To...

... Madeline Stuart and Architectural Digest for the lovely art deco inspired Green Room design. 

 
 
Even though the The Academy Awards are still 2 days away, Architectural Digest has revealed the final Green Room design a bit earlier than I expected (making design freaks like us very happy!).  As we know, the goal of the design was to celebrate the famous 1930s art director and set director, Cedric Gibbons.  Not only was Gibbons a founding member of the Academy, but the man designed the Oscar statue himself!  Fun stuff.  To read the AD article and see the slideshow, click here.

So, what do you guys think?   I'm liking it.  The room is a bit flashier than I expected (although, this is Hollywood we're talking about), but I still think that the art deco inspiration rings true.  The black and gold entry doors ALONE are worth talking about (gorgeous!).











 
 
Happy Weekend!
