"Hollywood Regency" has become a label much used by the design industry, but few seem to know exactly what it means. Design historian Emily Evans Eerdmans will discuss the historical Regency style and how it was restyled by Hollywood's art directors in the twentieth century to create bold and glamorous settings - often on a dime.
