Indiscreet 1955

A favorite set is for the 1955 movie Indiscreet with Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant. It is stunning. It is also perfect because you know what the owner of the apartment is like before you ever see her. Ingrid plays a chic, sophisticated London stage actress. The set, which is her apartment says it all. The entry to the apartment is designed to look and feel like you are making an entrance on to the stage.

The main element of the room is the perfect arrangement of art. The color palette for the room is in the matting of the art. The color is bright and eye catching but there is nothing random about it. The arrangement is perfectly symmetrical. It is a great combination of stunning color and finite order. Much like the personality of the character played by Ingrid Bergman.
