Who's Doing the Green Room for the Emmy's This Year?
Architectural Digest chooses
Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, an AD 100 designer with a stellar career which began at the ripe old age of 18....(I know!)! His past clients include the likes of Cher, Sir Elton John, Cheryl Tiegs, Christina Aguillera, Felicity Huffman, Tamara Mellon....the list goes on, let me tell you.
Before we get to the presentation board images for the Emmy Green Room, I thought it would be fun to take a bit of a trip down memory lane. I have chosen some of my favorite Lawrence-Bullard designs which have graced the pages of the leading shelter magazines. Just so you can see how stellar this designer is:
The photos show how adept Mr. Lawrence-Bullard is in any style, from traditional to contemporary. Perhaps the mark of a truly great designer is that one would feel comfortable in any of the environments they create. There is something about every one of these rooms that is very appealing: the mix of objects, the proper scale, the combination of colors.
It is small wonder he was chosen for the
61st Primetime Emmy Green Room design! So here is a sneak peek at the Moroccan oasis Mr. Lawrence-Bullard has created:
The designer acquired many of the antique items from 1st Dibs. The custom area rug is from The Rug Company. Edelman Leather supplied the leather floor tiles. Schumacher supplied many of the fabrics.
Martyn has been blogging about the progress (so cool), so take a look here.
And I love the fact that there is a Mood Board! (I always love to see how other designers present.)
