Great Gatsby Polyvore-2


For my second mood board, I was focusing a lot on the details from Get the Look: Great Gatsby style.  There were lots of ideas of different accessories, and furniture options to create my second board.  This website had 7 different piece of 1920's styled decor that I chose to put on my mood board.  I incorporated Mirrored Furniture which was not rare to see in high society homes.  They added a stylish and elegant look to the interior of the home.  Geometric shapes were also a cool factor I chose to put on my board (blue wall with chair.) Geometric shapes were very popular in this style era, and were usually added to a powder room, or accent wall.  Silky fabrics which give any room a touch of Hollywood glam.  Lacquered furniture was another, and the appearance of this high gloss furniture was very glamorous.  Polished metals create a look of masculine chic decor, and so do the glamorous lighting options.  Lastly the glass accessories, which are one of my personal favorites, also add elegance and glamour to the room, depending on the piece. 
Taking a look at Architectural Digest they touch on the look of Deco-inflected Furnishings, Contemporary art, and formal gardens.  I think the piece of art I chose (on the top left) really adds a pop of color, and a cool feel to the room. I think the deco inflected furnishings found in the two photos of different rooms I chose (top) are also very interesting. 
There were many different elegant, yet glamorous styles that were portrayed in the 1920's era.  Although those are basically opposites, when combined they can create a magnificent feel and appearance to any room.
