RELIVE THE GLAM

When it comes to monochromatic inspiration, nothing beats the stunning visuals from some of the most well-loved Hollywood black and white classics. We channel their pizazz into gorgeous interiors for some added glitz and sexiness.

When Action Was Louder Than Words

A heart-rending tale of how a tramp (Charlie Chaplin) falls in love with a blind flower girl (Virginia Cherrill), this movie sets the scene for a space filled with cosiness and femininity.

HITCHCOCK FOREVER

It is one of the most iconic film noir flicks to be produced by Alfred Hitchcock; who can forget the signature shower scene and the ear-piercing musical score? Here, we’ve transformed that sheer excitement into a look that’s more muted but just as mysterious and scintillating.

THE NEW OLD

Fashion and film meet in this recent release done in the style of silent black and white movies. We used this French comedy-drama as the influence for this room’s chic and stylish look.

Where Form Meets Functionality

Unlike the protagonists of this film, who travelled to outer space, the space we are creating here is on land, but filled with the boldness and practicality suited for those with the courage to go where no man has gone before.
