A photo album presumably kept by an interior design…er in the 1960s showing off a variety of apartment ideas with an emphasis on the "bachelor apartment." The first section of captioned "Bachelor Apartment E. 36 St. NYC 1960s" and shows 13 photographs of the apartment detailing the furniture, including a helmet and swords displayed over a fully stocked bar cart, and a small piano. Following this is a section of larger photos showing a "Bachelor Apartment Toronto, Canada 1960s." This apartment is styled in green and red velvet with one photo showing a man with a glass in his hand posed on the tufted sofa. The bedroom of this swanky pad is also featured here with w curious double bed combined to create a full sized bed and a wrought iron chandelier hovering above it. Above a page of bedroom furniture a caption reads, "Early Family painted bedroom furniture stained - antique accessories." Another photos shows a busy wallpaper design of repeating roasters used in a galley kitchen, another wallpaper shot shows a stripped pattern with framed illustrations of monkeys hanging in the center. The final design featured here is a "Connecticut Home" from Revonah Wood's Stamford, Connecticut. These photos show a well-to-do couple and friends in their nicely furnished living room with included a purple velvet sofa, bar cart, and numerous wall hangings. The final page is a drawing of a layout for a living room. An interesting look at a designer's work and 1960s aesthetic.
