The striking mix of contemporary art with the tailored furnishings set the mark for the library. The Dessin Fournir desk and side chairs are flanked on either side by floor to ceiling bookshelves to create a quiet place to work or read. Behind the double pocket doors is an additional work area for the library to double as a home office. The Michelle Williams painting from Area on the back wall is the quite anchor for the room, adding interest as well as ambiance. Photos: Phillip Ennis
