Erik Kvalsvik

The Style and Inspiration

Weathered furniture balances more polished accessories, creating a look that Luce dubs “humble elegance.” He says, “I like opposites. I am attracted to earthy, simple things, as well as elegant ones.” He’s just as likely to have a traditional Napoléon III faux-bamboo buffet as he is to bring in French industrial design pieces, such as steel-and-brass dentist cabinets.

Shown here: A 1770 Louis XVI handmade plaster panel is one of a set of four from a château in France. The neoclassical sofa is late 19th-century Swedish.
