Since its premiere in 2007, Mad Men, the critically acclaimed AMC television show, has had a huge influence on American culture, fashion and interior design. We went to our Home Decorators Collection and beyond for some ideas on how to create the Mad Men look in your home.

Top row (from left to right):

A bold, modernist piece of art like Just Because I Canvas by Maxine Price would not have looked out of place on a wall at the offices of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. Online options let you customize the canvas style and size to suit your taste.

The Raindrops Mirror with its gold leaf finish reflects classic 60’s retro influences and doubles as attention-grabbing wall decor.The rich hammered bronze look of the Palma Table Lamp, and the dark, walnut finished Urbane Floor Lamp provide suffused, layered lighting to let you control the mood of the room.

Middle row (from left to right):

The midcentury modern inspired Dorset Sofa with its clean lines and tufted back sits quite well with Mad Men’s design aesthetic. A vintage rolling cocktail cart would be a sweet find at a thrift or antique store.

Bottom row (from left to right):

Tami and Zebra pillows bring hints of signature burnt orange and animal print period accents to stir visual interest. Nothing lends authenticity and authority to a Mad Men inspired space like the iconic midcentury masterpiece that is the Eames Lounge Chair. This molded plywood and leather marvel is still as revolutionary a design concept now as it was in 1956 when it was first issued.

Morocco’s distinctive style is an eclectic brew of African, Arab and European cultures.

To illustrate how you can spice things up at home with this sumptuous style, here’s a look at a few extraordinary Moroccan bedroom design ideas that exemplify the versatility and charm of the Mediterranean.
