A still from the video for "Careless Memories" by Duran Duran
After reeling from the shock of discovering a Duran Duran video that I hadn’t yet seen, I was quickly smitten with the ’80s decor showcased in various scenes. From the chrome and glass coffee and dining tables to the white sofa and ’80s Deco lighting, it was all I could do to keep from whitewashing my living room and filling it with musicians in New Romantic blouses. Top it off with a vase of tulips, and I’m in ’80s design heaven.
Though the 1981 single “Careless Memories” did not achieve the success of the band’s prior release “Planet Earth,” we think the video directed by Perry Haines (who went on to co-found i-D magazine) is a hit. Could there be another choice for a piece to top off Mirror80’s “Interior Design Week?” We think not. Enjoy!:
