As an interior designer, Gambrel is known for his ability to simultaneously infuse modernity and tradition into any space, from country houses to uptown duplexes.
Inspired by: 19th-century houses in Virginia.
Signatures: Easels for art and objects, drum shades, trays on large ottomans, featherbeds over mattresses.
Styling tricks: Propping books vertically between book ends on coffee tables, and displaying collections of similar objects, like amber glass in different shapes.
