We're just hours away from tonight's Critics' Choice Awards, where plenty of our favorite stars will gather with excitement and anticipation for the night ahead.

And in case you're curious to see what exactly the space looks like inside, we got the exclusive scoop from the mastermind behind it all.

Gulla Jonsdottir of G+ Design is an accomplished architect and interior designer who has worked on several impressive projects including Hyde Bellagio, Hyde Miami, Red O, Grauman's Chinese Theatre and more, and was asked to transform the 7,000 square foot space at the awards show tonight into something spectacular.

One glance at these interior images of the space and it looks like she did just that!

As for her inspiration, Gulla tells us that she played with light, shadow and movement and was inspired by the Old Hollywood limelights manifested into architectural form.

The creative genius, who was most impressed with the set design of The Great Gatsby this year, worked with black and gold and soft fabrics to achieve the perfect ambiance for the evening.

So stunning!  

We can't wait to see who wins tonight.
