Steve: Classical. That’s the main thing we were going for when we oversaw the decoration of this room, so I told the designer very plainly that I needed there to be lots of swirly bits and… classical stuff that would let people know where Rodger and I stand financially. I told him, “I want there to be… silver things. And swirly things. And satin stuff and tassels. Like in cartoons about people who are rich. Make it like that.”
This is genuine laminate flooring. Please wipe your feet.

What is that oddly oversized plug near the baseboards? Could they have splurged for… a central vacuum system?!
Is this the setting used by the Trinity Broadcast Network (TBN)? Then this must be Benny Henn years earlier.
All hail the King of Opulence! (in all his glory!)
Please tell me they remembered to scotchguard the faux ultraseude.
Well in answer to the queston of the oversized wall plug, I believe that would be the UK version of a wall electrical outlet. Which would put this mixture visuals, colours and textures somewhere across the seas. This would also explain the overgrown garden surrounding what appears to be a pool. I do like how they not only have found a the perfect place for the spray painted silver faux antique chair, they have shown that not only are they into the classics but modern as well with the smoked crome and smoked glass coffee table sitting close by. I also can’t help but wonder if there is a little “Green Acre’s” mixed in here as they have proudly displayed the rolled golden garden hose right next to silver chair. I wonder if Rodger runs around the house in a Blond Beehive and speaks with a heavy accent.
And he bought it all with his inheritance from dear old Dad, who ran a Watney’s Pub not far from this estate.
Busy, charcoal, mock-flock wallpaper; floor-length puce drapes; silver spray-painted hardwood furniture and ass stains.
The Classics. You can’t go wrong, can you?
“Like in cartoons about people who are rich. Make it like that.”
LMAO! precious.
I think the silver leafed chair is covered in a large scale floral damask. You can see a difference in sheen. I think they were going for a “rich, Miami look”.
My guess is that it is an Englishman’s home - somewhere in Spain. Hence the floor to ceiling windows. Outside of the big windows and the view of nature - I agree with Steve - “like in cartoons…..” just do it with cheaper materials, please.
I’d hit that…
For those (like me) who scour the Sources pages of our favorite shelter-porn magazines, I can assure you that chairs of this opulence and quality can be gotten here in the USA. There is a place on Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn that always has a vast selection displayed on the sidewalk for all your demented decorating needs. I am convinced that Eva Peron, Baby Doc Duvailier, Saddam Hussein, and a host of other big-budget authoritarian types with out-sized taste shopped there.
Apparently he keeps his INDOOR hose neatly rolled up as well.
LOL, Lenny W.
That chair is a tragedy.
yeah, i like the hose placement too. most rich people keep the bidet in the WC. but these wild and crazy guys turn that concept on its head.
Queen for a Day.
(love the hardwood floors!)
Take me to the master bath where it looks like Sephora for men. I’m almost out of Angel.
White white white is the color of his arm-chair.
Steve, Your a HOOT ! lol
“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!!!”
Apparently he keeps his INDOOR hose neatly rolled up as well.
“Of course you may view my scrotum–by all means, have a gander! But releasing my penis for public scrutiny would be déclassé. We do, after all, have standards“
At first glance, it’s not SO far off from a feature spread in Elle Decor. It looks like someone tried to do the whole Jonathan Adler-esque revival of Dorothy Draper, but with cheap shit from the local Furniture Row.
The chair is bad, and the silverleaf doesn’t bug me half as much as the overworked Disney-Store proportions of it. However, the tassel on the curtain tieback is just killing me. What is that? A turned steel cuff the size of a Dixie-Cup?
I have a feeling that if we could turn the camera around, we’d bear witness to a whole suite of black lacquered casework–coffee table, end tables, entertainment center–the whole goddamned matching set bought for $599.99.
The plug on the wall looks like a 220 volt plug. I can only speculate why one would need a 220V in that location. They must have one monster of a window air conditioner.
“I simply adore ‘nice’ things and will tolerate nothing but the best”
And not a word written about the cocoa bath mat?
It’s not a British socket outlet, ours are square. Although the woodland outside does look English, the weather and the pool suggest “abroad”.
I think the plug is a centralised vacuum system. Unfortunately judging by the small single handful being concealed in the armchair, it didn’t come with a penis pump attachment.
i would blow him while hes in that chair. :))))))
