The Art of Georgiana Paraschiv

August 16, 2013 by Kate Leave a Comment

I’ve fallen head over heels in love with the artwork of Georgiana Paraschiv!!! Today we feature her amazing prints, available for purchase through her Society6 shop. From abstract lines and grids to marbleized color scapes, the hues and forms of her work are the perfect counterpart to 1980s decor.

Chic 1980s Furniture Finds

April 15, 2013 by Kate Leave a Comment

This weekend while I was having fun with the Mirror80 Pinterest boards, I couldn’t help but notice one important fact: 1stdibs is an amazing treasure trove for high-end ’80s furniture! If you’re a serious collector, you’re in luck. And if you’re not, you can still probably find some good deals (or at least a splurge or two). Hey, at any rate, you can plan your dream home by making collages out of the amazing images…like we did today! Enjoy! We call it “Golden Girls meets ’80s Modern”…

Lobby Sleek

Who says a little ’80s lobby love isn’t the design fix for your sleek space? New finds in marble, metal and mirror can bring a touch of stately glitz to a living room. Surprisingly modern yet evoking the past, these pieces will bring back that giddy feeling of looking up at the skylights in a vast hotel atrium or seeing your reflection in the walls and floor of a bank lobby. Enjoy!

A still from the 1987 film Less Than Zero

This week at Mirror80 we get into the Holiday spirit by revisiting ’80s seasonal style. Today’s images are brought to you by the 1987 film Less Than Zero, a haunting story of drug abuse and loss based on the book by Brett Easton Ellis. While the movie is far from the beacon of warm fuzzy Holiday fun, its breathtaking interiors provide us with a glimpse of posh ’80s winter decor. If you lived in a California mansion decorated by a cutting edge interior designer in the mid-late ’80s, perhaps your Christmas tree and centerpieces would look like this…

Mirror80 is a blog that celebrates the intersection of modern design and retro style. I'm Kate, and I enjoy exploring the look and feel of the "recent retro", with a focus on the late '70s through the early '90s. Welcome to Mirror80. Read More…
