Currently creating a Social Club set within the 1940s-50s

The problem is im not sure if the current build seems to fit within the era

Any Advice?

looks kinda modern for a supposedly “1940s-50s” social club set
you could try adding lanterns, making it more “woody” and add alot of extra details

I agree, It is also going to be decorated with 1940s-50s style furniture so that should help, with most the walls coveered in posters.

I also recommend vintage wood/dark wood color, but not too dark.

Well for starters, neon lights were not used way back then.

Neon lights were probably most prominent in that era?


NY during the 50s?

I’ve been doing some research on the era, and it looks like you may need to redesign the interior and make the bar more of a focal point. Jazz/nightclubs back then were quite lavish as well.

Your current theme is very industrial, which is a much older theme that was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.

I checked your profile out, and it looks like your older build matches the theme quite well.

I liked the wood-themed interiors in this article.

I’m currently basing some of the design aspects off of a real modern day jazz club, while trying to implement designs from the 50s into the build, I’m hoping to have it look out onto a street which will have more vintage cars, Hopefully that will help set the theme a little more.

I’m also trying to incorporate more gold within the club.

I’ll take a look at that article now

This looks really good and it does give a 1940s-50s vibe. You could try adding a shelf near the bar with many bottles on it. Also, maybe you could consider adding some hanging lights from the ceiling near the bar, like this:

Good work though!
