The "Dexter" Dining room at the Showtime Mansion

Matt Blank is a smart dude.  He hooked up with Metropolitan home, and had the take this great old brownstone, and convert it to a showcase of designers works all inspired on the programming of the Showtime network.  The after party for the Dexter priemere was there, and I was geeking out, taking pictures like a mad man (click here) on all the great art and objects.  My favorite room was by Amy Lau.



Amy Lau's Dexter Dining Room

Amy Lau has captured, tongue-in-cheek, the essence of Dexter, the Miami P.D. blood-splatter expert by day/vigilante serial killer by night. Naturally, the room flows red, illustrating the impact of a single hue added to a neutral setting. Patterns range from blood drops and human vein honeycombs to 3D string art , artfully strung from ceilings to walls, simulating Dexter’s crime scene forensic technique.  A vinyl-wrapped table and ceiling and plastic-sheathed floor recall the protective plastic the character obsessively uses to protect against splatters when killing.
