Steal This Look: Clyde Common Restaurant in Portland, Oregon

From Julie

Adjacent to the Ace Hotel in Portland, Oregon, Clyde Common is located in a lofty, two-level space and decorated in a low-key, Army/Navy style: we especially like the towering fir-tree branches casually stuck in a glass cylinder vase in lieu of a more traditional floral arrangement. Ace Hotel veterans Jack Barron and Natasha Figueroa conceptualized and designed the interior.

Recreate the laid-back Northwest vibe with the following elements:
