Behind the Collaboration:Where Versailles Meets Modern Glam

By Oliver Gal Studio – April 2025 – 5 min read

“Art is the jewelry of a room—it’s what makes a space feel curated, intentional, unforgettable.”

That’s how Valerie Darden, renowned interior designer and founder of Brexton Cole Interiors, describes her approach to art—and the vision behind the new Oliver Gal x Brexton Cole Collection, a Versailles-inspired statement art series designed to elevate modern interiors.

A COLLECTOR-WORTHY COLLABORATION ROOTED IN VERSAILLES ELEGANCE

A COLLECTOR-WORTHY COLLABORATION ROOTED IN VERSAILLES ELEGANCE

What happens when the splendor of Versailles meets couture-inspired craftsmanship? You get a luxury art collection that redefines modern opulence—crafted for interior design lovers, art collectors, and tastemakers seeking to transform their spaces with statement wall art.

Born from the creative synergy between Brexton Cole Interiors and Oliver Gal, this sophisticated collection celebrates European grandeur with a contemporary edge.

Each piece is hand-finished with diamond dust, hand-applied gold leaf, and bespoke artisanal techniques, designed to bring a museum-quality glow to any home. “I’ve admired Oliver Gal since before I became a designer,” shares Valerie. “This collaboration is a love letter to historic charm, reimagined through modern artistry.”

The Creative Vision Behind the Oliver Gal x Brexton Cole Collection

We sat down with Valerie Darden and Lola Sanchez, Chief Creative Officer at Oliver Gal, to uncover the inspiration, artistry, and craftsmanship behind this collection:

What inspired this collection? Valerie: It all began during my honeymoon in 2012, wandering through the gilded halls of Versailles. I was captivated by the balance of feminine elegance and unapologetic extravagance. This collection brings that timeless grandeur into today’s elevated interiors.

What makes these pieces collector-worthy? Lola: Each artwork is crafted by hand, with couture-inspired attention to detail—no two pieces are alike. We use diamond dust and 24k gold leaf to ensure every piece radiates modern luxury.

Do you have favorite pieces in the collection? Valerie: I love Running Alice. It evokes a dreamlike scene of a woman in a regal gown running beneath sparkling chandeliers. It’s ethereal, elegant, and fresh. Lola: For me, it’s the Flying Over Gold Surfboard—unexpected, bold, and unapologetically modern. That contrast defines the entire collection.
