apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Rex Ray-Inspired Home

9-5-08 amy lau 2.jpgIt's no secret that we here at Apartment Therapy are big fans of SF-based artist Rex Ray. His colorful, biomorphic work is captivating and, we've always found, inspiring. It seems we're not the only ones who glean inspiration from his work, as this apartment attests to.

• Check out more pictures and an interview with Lau on the project at Decorati.

I love her work, and the chandelier in the 2nd photo is just amazing! Does anyone know who it is made by and where it might be purchased?

It would help to read the article 1st. It is described as a 1960's Mazzega chandelier.

Honestly,

This is the first interior design concept that I've seen that gets everything, albeit under strict control, perfect. I could move in tomorrow!

Oh it's beautiful. The expressive, but restrained use of color is so mature and elegant.

love the artwork in the top photo...
"The James Lecce artwork that hangs above is formed with poured resin, and, says Lau “evokes the look and feeling of glass in its pre-formed state.”
