Frankly,I thought Fraser had nicer digs,save for his dad's Duct taped barcolounger.To me,the Madmen furniture is okay at best.All on beige wall to wall carpeting and deco elements thrown in?-meh.The painting is hung way too high above the sofa,for one.Anyhow,sorry to sound like a heretic,but it just doesn't do it for me.Your thoughts?

I don't think they were going...
I don't think they were going for impressive, more like accuracy.

Seems to me
the lamps are the primary goof. But this is a "warm modern" design, so maybe they fit under that definition. . .

the nomenclature may attract mcm buyers?
I notice a number MCM listings have "Mad Men" in the heading.Possibly to attract prospective buyers? Even the art gets attention. Anyhow,I was wondering if they actually had killer pieces,but nothing I see is a wow.
