The ugliest room in cinema history?

The Master bedroom decorations are so ugly in this movie, it almost hurts my eyes. There are turquoise doors, green carpet, purple trim and long white fake fur covering the bed. There is multi-colored “mod” wall paper clashing with red patterned curtains. In TRIVA it says the set decorator was let go, I wonder if it was for this room!

Part of the plot is the collected art in this house, but I wonder if it was the director's intent to make the classic home look that garish and cheap with the husband’s art investments. Maybe it is to show how just how rich and bored Jennifer was. The way the home and bedroom looks at the end of the movie is quite a contrast.

I have a Theater degree and Art degree, I don’t know if that gives me a good eye for this, but the paintings just looked like “best attempt” copies of the modern art styles of 1967. The sculptures on set actually look fine, but those “paintings” argh! There is however, what looks like a Warhol print in the entry way, and another large print in the bedroom of a man in a hat, that are the exceptions. The large Warhol of the woman in distress sure seems like foreshadowing-yes?

Further cinema blathering....

Note the tinkling of the mirror wind chimes at key times, and the presence of mirrors in general in the movie.

Note also, the classic black gloves Lisa wears at the end, they are the kind you can just unbutton and slide the fingers into the wrist for easy access to champagne.

I also noticed the juxtaposition of the 2 older woman, there is the oddly dressed, sweet natured lady living next door, who was intent on saving every grocery "green stamp," and the polished Lisa with expensive tastes.
