It’s that ’70s show

Midcentury modern still has legs. So does the hybrid style known as transitional. But interior design’s relationship with fashion and glamour has placed new focus on the 1970s and ’80s.

The look may not seem quite as au courant to those who grew up in the era, but the young and daring will find Jonathan Adler’s new pieces chic and fun. Inspired by Studio 54, the famed ’70s-era New York nightspot, the seating in the Bacharach collection combines velvet upholstery and brushed brass bases. And in Adler’s Ultra collection, mineral-hued velvet or blackand-white printed upholstery dresses up an array of seating that blends Italian modernism and futurism

Another feature of this ’70s style? A palette of happy hues like daffodil, gumball pink, acid green and sky.

You’ll see lots of kicky pop art prints on textiles and wallpaper. Fab’s got One Bella Casa’s Eyelita throw pillow, with a cartoon eye repeated on vivid green. Here too is the trippy, candy-colored geometric print of LiLiPi’s Pop pillow

So here we go, 2018. Some of us are ready to cozy up with Netflix and a faux fur throw in a quiet room wrapped in milk chocolate paint. Others want to enliven our space with a madcap array of fun prints, a gold chandelier and the tunes turned up.

This year, it’s all good.
