Rafael de Cárdenas attempted a staggering feat when he agreed to design illustrious model Jessica Stam's glamourous apartment New York City's East Village. Read highlights from the Elle Decor article below:
"For Cárdenas to reach his desired glamour quotient meant starting from scratch in the new apartment, a masculine, distress-finished, ethnic-accented number that looked, as he describes it, "like Indiana Jones had designed a Marriott." According to Stam, "We basically kept nothing." Or almost nothing: Of her previous decor, only a taxidermy rattlesnake, coiled and ready to strike, made the cut thanks to its sentimental value (it was a birthday gift). Spared in the new space were a former owner's massive Moroccan doors leading to the bedroom, the only major earth-tone element the decorator okayed.
Instead he opted for a jewel-like palette of purples and pinks, along with splashes of metallic gold and silver, to lend an elegant backdrop to furnishings that evoke several modes of stylishness -- specifically, those of 1940s Hollywood, '60s Italy, and '70s America. Though Cárdenas is an unabashed fan of modernism and filled Stam's space with an array of striking 20th-century furniture -- a Vistosi-style chandelier, white-lacquer Milo Baughman sideboard, and Dorothy Draper floor lamp -- he is also a firm believer in more old-fashioned notions of originality and connoisseurship. So he proceeded to troll eBay and scour Manhattan, Los Angeles, and Miami -- some of his favorite stomping grounds -- for unique treasures (no ubiquitous Eames or Saarinen pieces here) like the living area's anonymous long, low '50s sofa he discovered online."
