| Elle Decor Showhouse Basement by Erin Martin |
What can I say about Erin Martin? Brilliant? Playful with a evil sense of humor? Provocative? She is all of these things, but perhaps most importantly, she is a designer who pushes envelopes and creates spaces that are truly unique. Super talented Erin Martin designed the large basement for the Elle Decor Showhouse, styling it as a party pad that seems to cross 70's groove with a bit of Boho chic,shaking it all up with some 007 Bond coolness.
Erin has pulled together some vintage mid-century pieces and Moroccan accents like the coffee table and area rugs, and added custom light fixtures and Victorian portraits ( with irreverent additions) in a way that made me want to stick around til Happy Hour!
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did....

| A Master at Shelf Display |

| Mid-Century Swivel Chairs, African Coffee Tables and Moroccan Area Rugs. Custom Light Fixture made from what was originally a Table Base...wicked! |

| Metal Mesh Screen Stair Rail. I loved this idea! |

Erin Martin is nothing if not full of gutsy imagination. I hope she never stops.

it is a great space. everything is so unique yet all works well together!
I hope to go this weekend, but in case I don't I've got your great posts to look at! Erin Martin - the woman can do no wrong. I am in awe!
Wow, this is so incredibly louche and cool.
After all, leave it to Erin Martin to create something like this out of the contradiction in terms present in "sexy basement."
I must admit I love the edginess -- the arachnid table-base-cum light fixture is only mildly creeping me out ;)
Cheers and thanks so much for totally delivering this showhouse to those of us who can't pop by in person, Alcira

Pretty funky--love her style. I hope that the party doesn't get too rowdy; the Victorian mirror might have a problem. Have a great week-end.
What a fun, eclectic space! I love all the mirrors and the interesting light fixtures. Thanks for sharing :).
That was one of my favorite rooms too. It feels very different during the day and by night.
Cheers,
