Last week in the office, we huddled around a laptop admiring the interiors (and gardens and surrounding cliffs) of Casa Privata, a restored villa in Praiano, a tiny town between Amalfi and Positano in Italy.
Among the eight guest rooms at the restored fisherman’s ruin is the New York Room, with soulful interiors and floaty, romantic curtains, straight out of a Michelangelo Antonioni film. Here’s how to replicate the look.

Furniture
Above: West Elm’s Simple Upholstered Headboard comes in a variety of fabric options; $499 for the queen size. Above: The Strand Mirrored Open Nightstand is $1,095 at Restoration Hardware. Above: Cisco Brothers’ Donato Chair has the look of an old armchair. Contact Cisco Brothers for pricing and a nearby dealer. Above: The Parsons Desk, shown with a charcoal-stained maple top, is $1,169 at Room & Board. Above: A vintage Bentwood Armchair by Michael Thonet can be sourced on 1st Dibs (this one is $490). An off-the-shelf option is the Thonet Era Armchair in a coffee stain for $345 at Design Within Reach.
Above: To match the look of the romantic curtains at Casa Privata, source the Belgian Sheer Linen Drapery from Restoration Hardware; $129 to $379 per panel. Above: From Swedish company Kinnsand, the Vintage Plain Rug is $2,610 for the six-by-nine-foot size at The Future Perfect. Above: Merci’s Pre-Washed Linen Duvet Cover in Coral is €160. Above: The Classic Core Sheet Set from Brooklinen is a simple queen size flat sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases for $129. For stocking a guest room, we also like their Classic Hardcore Bundle with a duvet cover and extra pillowcases for $210 For more in the way of sheets and bedding, see our post Bedding Disrupters: Luxury Linens for Less, Online Edition.
