Did the client share a vision or did you have carte blanche?
We were asked to design a timeless living room space for a young professional couple. The concept was a simple, clean, classic design with emphasis on custom finishes and vintage accessories.
Did you incorporate any current trends into the design? If so, what are they?
Starting with Sherwin Williams Natural Choice paint for the walls, the room was layered with silk sateen curtains on polished nickel rods. The upholstered furnishings have clean lines with subtle details, and casegood pieces ground the room with formality. Finishing touches include a hammered-base Bradley Hughes cocktail table with a mirrored top, a vintage Hollywood Regency mercury glass lamp, artwork by Mary Long-Postal, a collection of shagreen boxes, and Venini glass purchased while traveling abroad. The bar cart is a nod to the past, holding a collection of the homeowners’ crystal decanters and other objets d’art. The overall design is a thoughtfully arranged collection of furnishings, art and accessories that create a dramatic, yet serene atmosphere.
TOP TIPS
1. We always recommend that you buy the best you can afford. It’s oftentimes best to wait for the perfect piece than to settle for something of less value.
2. Collections that evolve over time create layers that make your space interesting.
