AMIRI AW26/27 Interior Design | Dressed Homes

DRESSED HOMES · ISSUE 02

For the second Dressed Homes story, I chose AMIRI Autumn/Winter 2026–27 and its imagined world of Laurel Canyon.

This hillside neighbourhood in Los Angeles became a gathering place for musicians during the 1960s and ’70s, with residents including Joni Mitchell, Graham Nash and Frank Zappa. Homes were part of that creative life: places to meet, play and write music.

Looking through the collection, I could see why Mike Amiri returned to it. Embroidered jackets sit beside faded denim; soft knitwear meets patterned boots. Some pieces feel intimate, others ready for a stage. I like that tension. It gives a room much more to work with than a single colour palette.

I imagined a house where those different moods could live together. The living room would invite people to stay, the bedroom would carry the most delicate embroidery, and somewhere there had to be a piano.

The timber, records and daylight establish the setting. The clothes decide what happens inside it.

These are AI-generated editorial interiors created under my design direction. The house, custom finishes and textile adaptations are independent concepts, not an AMIRI home collection or collaboration.

01

THE LIVING ROOM

Sunken living room with a curved tobacco leather sofa, dusty-rose armchair, wine rug and handmade tiled fireplace. — A sunken lounge in tobacco, rose and wine.

The sunken living room sets the mood. Tobacco leather, dusty rose and a deep wine rug sit beneath timber beams. I wanted generous seating and materials that become more interesting as you get closer.

Close view of irregular ivory glazed fireplace tiles with mint, burgundy and caramel accents. — Handmade ceramic brings small changes of colour and surface.

The fireplace brings the palette into handmade ceramic. Small mint, caramel and burgundy tiles interrupt the ivory glaze.

Embroidered ivory, muted green, dusty-rose and burgundy cushions on a tobacco leather sofa. — Different fabrics, connected by embroidery and hand-finished edges.

On the sofa, the cushions carry different versions of the collection’s embroidery. Their fabrics change, while the stitching connects them.

Dusty-rose upholstered armchair held inside a dark tubular metal frame beside the sunken lounge. — Soft upholstery inside a visible metal frame.

The dusty-rose armchair adds another texture: soft upholstery held inside a visible metal frame.

Olive velvet ottoman with a tobacco leather strap, visible stitching and a metal buckle. — A leather strap translates the collection’s accessory details.

The velvet ottoman takes its detail from the accessories. One leather strap and a buckle are enough.

02

THE DINING ROOM

Walnut dining table with tobacco and dusty-pink leather chairs, amber glass chandelier and a python-pattern sideboard. — Walnut, leather and a view into the lower living room.

Walnut and leather give the dining room its weight. Dusty-pink end chairs soften the arrangement, while the opening preserves the view down into the living room.

Walnut sideboard with wine-coloured leather and cream-and-brown python-pattern fronts. — Wine-coloured leather beside the footwear-inspired python motif.

The sideboard holds the strongest contrast: wine-coloured leather beside a cream-and-brown python pattern borrowed from the footwear.

Detail of a chandelier with irregular clear and amber textured glass panels suspended from a dark metal frame. — Clear and amber glass, with texture visible in daylight.

Above the table, textured clear and amber glass catches the daylight. Its irregular surface matters as much as its shape.

Close view of a textured pale green and ivory dining rug crossed by a burgundy stripe beneath wood furniture. — A broad burgundy gesture across the quieter rug.

The rug brings the colours together beneath the furniture, with a broad burgundy gesture across its quieter ground.

03

THE KITCHEN

Walnut kitchen with a stainless-steel island, carved botanical end panel, burgundy wall and powder-pink niche. — Woodcarving, stainless steel and a powder-pink recess.

I wanted the kitchen to feel crafted. Walnut cabinetry meets stainless steel, with burgundy around the tall units and a small powder-pink niche.

Botanical woodcarving on the walnut end of a kitchen island beside a stainless-steel worktop. — The embroidered vine becomes a carved wooden surface.

The embroidered vines become carved wood on the island. Here, the pattern has depth and follows the material.

Close view of a long opal kitchen pendant suspended by stitched tobacco leather straps with metal fittings. — Stitched leather suspension and precise metal connections.

Leather straps suspend the long light above it. The stitching and metal connections deserve their own close view.

Side view of a walnut kitchen breakfast counter with cane-backed dark-red stools and a pink display niche. — Cane backs and dark-red frames lighten the breakfast counter.

Cane-backed stools bring a lighter structure to the island. Their dark red frames pick up the surrounding colour.

04

THE BEDROOM

Black upholstered bed with a wide floral-embroidered headboard, white bedding with wine-red piping and an ivory ceiling. — The black jacket and embroidered borders, translated into a bed.

The bedroom began with the black jacket and its embroidered floral borders. I enlarged that detail across the headboard, keeping the bed black and the sheets white.

Dimensional floral embroidery on a black textile headboard beside white cotton bedding edged in wine red. — Raised threads beside a fine wine-red edge on white cotton.

A thin wine-red edge finishes the bedding. Against the raised embroidery, that small line feels especially precise.

Bedroom wall opposite the bed with a dark ribbed-metal cabinet and a denim-blue, ivory and wine textile artwork. — The opposite wall introduces metal and a quieter textile composition.

Across the room, a low cabinet introduces folded metal, while a textile artwork picks up the washed denim of the original outfit.

05

THE DRESSING ROOM

Walk-in dressing room with walnut storage, wine leather accents, mint glass panels and a gathered burgundy chair. — Walnut, wine leather and mint glass in the dressing room.

The dressing room brings together walnut, wine-coloured leather and mint glass. I like the contrast between its ordered storage and the deeply gathered upholstery of the central chair.

06

THE BATHROOM

White rectangular bathtub beneath mint glazed ceramic tiles with shallow paisley relief, beside chocolate cabinetry. — Mint knitwear becomes a ceramic surface around the bath.

The mint cardigan in look 28 gave the bathroom its direction. Its paisley decoration becomes a shallow ceramic relief, paired with chocolate cabinetry and fine vertical lines.

Reverse bathroom view with a chocolate-tiled walk-in shower, mint niche, white floor and dark striped vanity. — Chocolate ceramic and a narrow mint niche continue the palette.

On the opposite wall, the shower continues the chocolate colour. A mint-lined niche makes the connection without covering another wall in pattern.

Close view of shallow paisley and leaf relief molded into mint ceramic tiles with visible grout joints above a white bathtub. — Paisley pressed into ceramic, finished with one mint glaze.

The relief belongs to the tiles themselves. Glaze, shallow shadows and visible joints give the ornament a believable material form.

07

THE HOME MUSIC STUDIO

Home music studio with a black recording workstation, keyboard, ivory leather armchair and coral botanical rug. — A place to compose and listen, within the house.

This room needed to be a home music studio. The collection’s musical references made that feel natural, and the house needed somewhere for the records to become something more than decoration.

Reverse view of the home studio showing a black upright piano, microphone, movable ivory acoustic screen and record library. — The other side of the studio: piano and recording corner.

The opposite wall holds an upright piano and a recording corner. A movable acoustic screen keeps the arrangement flexible.

Ivory leather listening chair beneath raised textile acoustic panels, beside a black table and tubular floor lamp. — Leather, lacquer and raised textiles in the listening corner.

Ivory leather, black wood and raised textile panels give the listening corner its depth.

Close view of a coral-orange wool rug with raised cream botanical scrolls beneath a black piano bench. — Look 37’s botanical pattern, adapted in wool.

The coral-and-cream rug comes from the large botanical pattern of look 37. Different pile heights let the design catch the light.

Black upright piano and bench beside a record library with stepped black wood diffusers and a sunburst guitar. — Records and stepped wood give the room another rhythm.

Beside the piano, records and stepped wooden surfaces bring a quieter rhythm to the room.

08

THE TERRACE

Covered canyon terrace with a tobacco woven sofa, black rope chairs, denim-blue upholstery and patchwork cushions. — The patchwork of look 18 moves outside.

The terrace takes its textile direction from the patchwork jacket in look 18. Tobacco-coloured rope, black woven chairs and denim-blue cushions give the patterned pieces a clear setting.

Tight side view of denim, ochre, ivory and burgundy patchwork cushions with saddle stitches beside a woven sofa arm. — Curved inlays, visible seams and small stitched botanical details.

Close up, the cushion seams become the important part: curved fabric sections, small embroidered patches and different woven surfaces.

09

THE ENTRANCE HALL

Entrance hall with an ivory leather console, silver-coloured mirror, black leather bench and ruby glass vessel. — Light tailoring, black leather and one ruby-red accent.

The entrance returns to the collection’s lighter tailoring. Ivory leather, black upholstery and silver-coloured metal frame one concentrated accent of ruby glass.

Close view of black reptile-embossed bench upholstery, stitched ivory leather console and translucent ruby glass. — Leather grain, stitched edges and translucent glass.

The details explain the room: stitched leather edges, reptile embossing and shallow ceramic lines that recall the construction of a jacket.

ONE COLLECTION, ANOTHER WAY TO LIVE

What stayed with me was the attention given to small things. A seam can change a plain surface. A patterned shoe can suggest an entire cabinet.

That is where I wanted this house to feel like AMIRI.

Wear the room. Live in the collection.
