Casual Glamour Designer Becky Erdel of I.O. Metro infuses this issue’s Designer’s Palette with exquisite furniture, accessories and fabrics that urge us to scream, “Fabulosity!”

“Old Hollywood was my inspiration,” says I.O. Metro interior designer Becky Erdel for I.O. Metro. Indeed, her astute eye for glamour evokes an air of elegance reminiscent of the golden days and their renowned screen legends. “Everyone should have a dose of glamour in their lives. Incorporating a dash of old-school inspiration is a great way to achieve that in interior décor. 36 | august/september 2011

“Luxury is not about the price tag; it is about personality. I am always on the lookout for beautiful accent pieces that have a twist of luxury and glamour that will not break the bank: exquisite lighting fixtures, plushy upholstered furnishings and exciting fabrics. Décor should reflect a unique style that represents the individuality of the person living in that space. To me that is the ultimate glamour touch.”
