This Living Room is a perfect example of a design challenge posed by my clients. Their tastes are distinctly traditional, while the architecture of this house is very angular and lends itself to more modern furnishings. They wanted this formal Living Room to look like an elegant hotel lobby. I designed an arched entrance with columns and wrought iron railings, softened the windows with silky sheers and full length panels to frame the fireplace and added several sitting areas. The baby grand, dramatic lighting, and original artwork finish off the space, giving it an inviting & old world elegance.
