This is the room I imagine when reading the scene in The Great Gatsby where the characters all hang out in a hotel room because one of the dudes is cheating on his wife with a gas station attendant's wife.
this is far too modern to fit the setting of The Great Gatsby.
Gatsby was decades before this style, and they were all incredibly rich, so their surroundings would be fancy beyond belief.
