Glam, whether in fashion or in interiors, seems like one of those styles reserved for divas, drag queens (who are also divas) and fictional characters like Jay Gatsby.
It’s a challenge to find the perfect balance between ornate and elegance. In fact, most of the time, glam comes across as just plain tacky. But when done right, it is oh, so fun and absolutely stunning, like an old Hollywood movie.
And thanks to KT Design Group, 15 Chartwell Rd. is one of those rare luxury estates that manages to do glam interior design just right.
Its exterior by architect Bill Hicks is your standard nouveau riche look, but inside, it’s all class.
