This is perhaps my favorite design trick picked up during last week's visit to the Elle Decor Modern Life Concept House. Absent a foyer, designer Beth Martin created a makeshift entry for this living room with a custom-built mirror. The glass simply slips into its base providing a freestanding backdrop for a console while unobtrusively separating the living and dining areas. It's like a floating wall. Dare I say genius?

Though primarily a self-taught decorator, Desiré studied at The Art Institute, where she honed a distinct aesthetic largely influenced by the Modern Glamour movement, the theme of her popular design blog, Sukio. Not only is she considered a "closet fashionista," discreetly stashing handbags and shoes whenever possible, but, as an MIT graduate, she’s also an undercover nerd. Fashion, nerdom, and several years as a Washingtonian have combined to shape her unique perspective on interior design.
