if you've sashayed into claridge's, perused donna karan, bet at the bellagio, or ogled ocean's thirteen, your eyes have feasted on christopher guy furniture. now, the elegant designer opens an eponymous showroom in beverly hills.
known for marrying distinctive elements of contemporary mood with
classic values, guy brings it all together in this 2,400-square-foot
triangle. expect exaggerated flair with a touch of whimsy and heirloom
quality. feel like you're in the middle of a bond movie? his
furnishings glammed up both casino royale and tomorrow never dies.
his latest line, silk cut, kicks it up with statement dining tables and
upholstery pieces, adorned with his sig chris-x legs and lush fabrics.
jazz up your office with an accent chaise lounge featuring a rich,
mahogany scrolled base. or, put your heads together on the canopy
collection's loveseat. the theatrical, high-back, overarching shelter
design with intricately carved mahogany detailing keeps it cozy. need
some space? a sensuous s-shaped tête-à-tête, hand carved from solid
mahogany, keeps you divided. and if you crave some fireworks in the
bedroom, poke around the bird's nest collection for flamboyant, convex
headboards of handcrafted wood and velvet. chairs, stools, banquettes,
ottomans, desks, cabinets, chests, and buffets also capture the drama.
accent them with his eye-catching mirrors and unique chandeliers.
according to this guy, all the world's a stage. christopher guy. 9699 wilshire boulevard. at roxbury. beverly hills. 310.385.7876. www.christopherguy.com |
