Auntie Mame
An amazing example of set decoration and its ability to tell the story is the movie Auntie Mame.
Mame is such a great character. A true bohemian in spirit and lifestyle. She lived in a wonderful Sutton Place apartment in New York City.
As the whims of Mame's interest changed so did her apartment. She would redecorate it as often as she changed her wardrobe. For Mame, her surroundings had to reflect who she was.
Whether it was 20's flapper, 30's elegance, a fascination with India or the new technology of modern design Mame's apartment was done to enhance her latest passion.
The apartment always showcased her free spirit and love of life.
