EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a sitting room in 1933, designed by Granville Conway. The image showcases an innovative scheme of decoration that aimed to counterbalance the room's disproportionate height, length, and narrowness by emphasizing horizontal lines throughout. The carefully chosen curtains and fabrics, expertly crafted by Allan Walton, add a touch of elegance to the space. Every element within this interior exudes art deco charm, reflecting the prevailing design trends of the era. Published in Decorative Art 1933 - Year-Book of The Studio and edited by C. G. Holme, this photograph stands as a testament to Geoffrey Holme's keen eye for capturing timeless beauty through his lens. It transports us back to a time when attention was paid not only to functionality but also to creating visually pleasing spaces. As we gaze upon this monochrome print from The Print Collector archives, we are reminded of how interior design can transform any living space into an oasis of style and comfort. This sitting room serves as an inspiration for those seeking retro aesthetics with its tasteful furniture choices and meticulous attention to proportion. While the original purpose or location remains unknown, one thing is certain: this photograph encapsulates an era where interior decoration was elevated into an art form itself.
