Meg Ryan's elegantly understated style needs no introduction. Throughout her career, she has renovated at least nine homes, each one more stunning than the last. Her signature look is pared-back in terms of color, with a focus on impressive finishes and silhouettes. The dining room in her Mercer Street apartment is the ultimate testament to this.
Collaborating with the esteemed interior designer Monique Gibson in 2016, Meg transformed the SoHo apartment into a cinematic wonder. Though Meg sold the home in 2017, we're still thinking about it.

If you are hoping to tap into Meg's look, experts say integrating a touch of brushed gold will be a huge interior design trend for this year.
Mike Manders, designer at Haddon explains: 'Brushed gold brassware has become a defining finish in luxury design. Unlike high-shine metals, the soft, textured surface of brushed gold offers a subdued elegance that complements a variety of interiors, from classic to modern. This finish pairs beautifully with natural materials like stone and wood, enhancing a bathroom’s sense of warmth and depth. For those looking to introduce a touch of refined glamour while maintaining a timeless appeal, brushed gold taps offer the perfect balance.'
In Meg's space, this comes through in the antique-style lighting, but the finish also works well as an accent on furniture or as a decorative piece.
Meg Ryan's mixed metal dining room shows that silver and gold together is not such a sin as we once thought. When finishes are combined with care and precision, the result always pays off.
