Egyptian grandeur is captured for the modern home decorator Egypt has captured the limelight! For the first time in history, a collection of glori­ ous treasures unearthed from King Tutankhamun's tomb is on view in American museums. Tut s royal treasures re­ flect the brilliant artistic heri­ tage of Ancient Egypt, and the grand style which has in­ fluenced design through the ages. Even today, Egyptian motifs have inspired new de­ velopments in fashion and home furnishings. You may not be furnishing an interior the majestic size of a pharoah's pyramid or a presidential villa along the Nile, but you can still bring the grandeur of Ancient Egyptian motifs into small- scale living quarters to suit June 9-10-11 We're Experts on Exteriors and Interiors!

Gently pitched arms suggest traditional pyramid shapes, while a loose pillow baek provides up-to-date styling and comfort. Tne Egyptian theme is completed with bronse and terra eotta fabric in the "Basketry" pattern, created by Jim Patterson of Perceptive Con­ cepts in eoncert with the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Boom setting design is by Douglas Sackfield. contemporary decorating needs. Whether you rent or own, living space is becoming more expensive every day and this means every square foot must be used wisely. The convertible sofa pro­ vides one economical solu­ tion for space-savers by being functional as well as decorative. Now you can sleep in the same area where you read, watch TV, or entertain guests, enjoying the luxury of two different rooms for the price of one! Engineering innovations in the new sofabed lines make these pieces even more de­ sirable for contemporary interiors. Gone are the days of bulky, cumbersome con­ vertibles--those constant reminders that you had a mattress hidden in your "liv­ ing" room. Sleek, up-to-date styles are made to enhance, not dominate, interior decor, and to make a fashion statement. Now, an important state­ ment in home furnishings is Egyptian, reflecting the tre­ mendous impact Egyptian art has had on design throughout history. Convertibles manu­ facturers, like the Simmons Company, have designed new frames inspired by Egyptian forms and chosen high-style fabrics expressing complementary motifs. This fashionable "mar­ riage" of fabrics and sofabed frames is an advantage for the kind of small-scale de­ corating that most of us face. A well-designed piece be­ comes the focal point of a room without fil.ling it entirely, and it can integrate all the other decorative ele­ ments to create a total look. If the "Egyptian" look is your style, a convertible sofabed like Simmons' "Tannis" Hide-A-Bed (from the exclusive "Theban" col­ lection0) features a frame which combines the low, lean look of contemporary styling and a traditional motif--gent­ ly pitched arms suggesting pyramid shapes. Offered with a complete line of designer-created Egyptian fabrics, the model creates a compact oasis of elegance. All of this without sacrificing sleeping comfort, since the "Tannis" is availa­ ble with a 58" x 75" queen- sized mattress, or a 65" x 75" super-queen. What better way to end a bedtime story than with a convertible that neatly tucks itself in -- right back into shape as a decorative piece, and a money-saver, which al­ lows you to get the most value and enjoyment from your own living space. • • • • The finest sermons are seen, not heard; they live in the lives of men and women.
