Old Westbury Neoclassical
Traditional Living Room, New York
This large living room setting sits above a custom grey/lavender silk and wool blend rug. Walls were paneled to a height and then a dark grey was carried above the paneling height. Pocket doors were put in to open the formal living room into the kitchen area, thus providing a sense of informality to this room. Symmetry was used to arrange flanking chairs and sofa. All upholstery goods were covered in linen over shades of creams and grays. Chartreuse and soft lavender were used as accent colors. A whitewashed sculptural console is placed behind the larger sofa in the space and invites to explore the room, past the entry foyer. A large reclaimed wood coffee table was used to anchor the room, while two burlap sculptural chairs are used as reading corners, with pivoting wall sconces.
