William Haines
One of the founders of Hollywood Regency style William Haines redefined the way the stars lived in the 30s. After a career as an actor Haines turned to interior design. Clients were friends such as Joan Crawford, Gloria Swanson, Carole Lombard and Marion Davies. Haines' Hollywood glamour continues today with Lindley Associates who faithfully reproduce his elegant classic furniture.
