Well
this one was tough to wrap my head around! The 3rd trend is a lean towards a
Shakespeare inspired attire, definitely Elizabethan in nature with less
stuffiness. Baroque, ornate decor is not usually my cup of tea but I decided to
pour myself a cup anyway and begin my search. I actually found two forces that
can definitely push this trend forward, "Ann Getty", and
"Melissa White".
Ann
Getty has been doing custom interior design worldwide since 1995, and has her
headquarters in San Francisco. She has graced many a magazine, so I am sure you
are familiar with her work and style.
She
is definitely a designer for those with discerning taste and an eye for
collecting. She also started a furniture line in 2003,"The Ann Getty House
Collection", chockfull of amazing reproductions of her most prized
personal pieces that she has collected over her years of traveling the globe!
The
other Shakespeare force is truly amazing! Melissa White along with partner
David Cutmore established Fairlyte Elizabethan in the town of
Hastings, UK. They create and make reproduction fresco panels, and luxurious
hand painted linen cloths. They also design wall treatments that they can also
apply directly to interiors walls. I was amazed at the authentic look and
texture they have achieved, you do feel as if you have been placed in a
Shakespeare play when gazing at the wall treatments!
I
am not sure if this will sway over to 16th century decor but it definitely has
gained my appreciation for the craft!

Ann Getty fabric choices, brocades! |
|
Some of her amazing reproductions, simply stunning. |
|
ANN GETTY INTERIORS, this bedroom really feels like the Shakepeare trend! |
|
A heavier feel but has tones of brocade and tapestry just as one would find in a Shakespeare inspired room. |
|
These gorgeous fresco panels can be single pieces of art for that trendy touch! |
|
Again the fresco, I love it! |
|
Examples of the hand painted fabric. |
|
It is really beautiful and I love the charcoal and cream choice of colors. |
|
A total install of the magic they create. |
|
It looks authentic yet they have created this masterpiece! |
|
The wall they have produced here bring you right back to Shakespeare's time. |
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
