| When Mclintic got married, donations to a local art gallery were made instead of a registry, and the huge painting over the sofa was bought as a result. With the bold painting, rest of the room is fairly neutral and calm.

| Some bold pattern was infused with a zebra rug to lift the room out of the land of the ordinary. A mix of modern, retro, ethnic and baroque pieces are a result of Mclintic's admitted indecisiveness, but they all work well together. The Louis chair was brought in to add curves and decorative detailing. It will be recovered in turquoise velvet soon.

| The family spends a lot of time in the tiny playroom alcove. Yellow accents in the pillow and Charade poster work well with the neutrals and seem befitting a playroom that needs to transform into an adult space in the evening. The chevron rug brings energy into an otherwise plain space and makes the room look bigger. Private Comment

| The dining room has been evolving steadily. All the millwork was painted white. Belgian Linen drapes from Restoration Hardware dictated a matching shade of Iced Marble from Benjamin Moore. The gourd lamp was picked because it was exactly the same shade as the walls, creating a monochrome scheme. Private Comment

| The round shapes made a huge difference. But the room still felt like an extension to the hallway. Given that the family spent so much time here working, eating, doing arts and crafts, they added shelves to separate the two spaces. Private Comment

| The nursery got a mod vibe with geometric wallpaper. The blue was already in place from when her first son was in this room. She decided to go all out with patterns and chose the gray zebra rug from West Elm. The cute bird decal is calming and can be removed when the baby grows older. By selecting a very simple color scheme, multiple patterns can be combined without the space looking too busy. Private Comment

| This room was originally an office. When baby number two was on his way, the room took on double duty as a guest room, too. A complete redecoration wasn't required, but since the new baby was going to be a boy, Lucy had to get a girly, floral nursery nursery out of her system, and the guest room was the perfect opportunity!

| Lucy created a restful, neutral bedroom with rich textures.The painting above the bed — another wedding gift — determined the gold tones and the few pinky-red accents for the room. Private Comment

| This room's five windows makes it incredibly light. Its five windows can make it boiling in the summer and freezing in winter, so a big challenge was finding window coverings that moderated the heat, looked great in large quantities and were affordable. She settled on silk shades along one wall and draperies in the same fabric, all with heavy linings, on the other wall.
