Invidia is already a hugely popular interior design trend for 2008. Working well for the oppulent bar or a batchlor pad, it is a bold & daring statement which makes a powerful impact. Black leathers and velvets from the darker side of the spectrum work wonders. Small detailing in gold and bronze works well, and accessories need to be vast or understated. You could use a huge reading lamp in gold, or a small up-lighter in brushed aluminium, or if your feeling really brave, both! Small and large can work wonders together. Take the image on the right, a relatively small metal lamp, and a large, bronze rubbish bin.
