Ivory plaster walls atop a rich taupe tongue and groove wainscot envelope this traditional mountain home’s light-filled living room. A two-tiered bronze chandelier hangs from the ceiling, and dark exposed beams coordinate with the walnut-stained window trim, stair rail and hardwood floors. The focal point is an expansive cast stone fireplace topped with a bucolic landscape painting in hues of blue, green, gold and brown. Ornate candlesticks provide glimmers of gold while a crackled vase alongside them finishes the mantel. Offering the perfect fireside perch is a pair of velvet benches in aqua with rich, ebony legs. An elegant seating group is anchored by an Oushak rug in tones of vanilla, beige and Tiffany blue. Two Chesterfield sofas covered in cream chenille are accented with bronze nails. Sage green paisley throw pillows are boxed in the same velvet that covers the benches. A pop of color comes via a pair of light turquoise pottery lamps that rest on charcoal grey side tables with turned legs and pie-crust edges. French lounge chairs are upholstered with a diamond geometric fabric in heather and ecru, and warm white matelassé throw pillows are trimmed in seafoam green. An oak sofa table in wire-brushed taupe holds wheat leather-bound books and glass hurricane candleholders that reflect the light washing in from the South Carolina sky. Linen draperies in an aqua and eggshell leaf stripe pattern frame a generously sized window, showcasing the mountain views beyond the porch.

This Covered Porch is located right off the Great Room and Breakfast Area, and it serves as another gathering space in the home. We started out with an outdoor friendly slipcover sofa and two wicker swivel rockers to ground the Seating Area. We repurposed the homeowner’s old coffee table of glass, stone and metal. We used interesting and colorful garden stools for our side tables, and then had a blast with the accessories. Most of the items the homeowner already had – we just pulled from other places. The pillows in the pink tones were the perfect inspiration pieces. The homeowner found this mirror which is the perfect scale for the pitched ceiling. I love that every corner has something interesting and that the overall effect is one of texture, pattern, and pops of wonderful greens and pinks. We have more outdoor spaces coming in this series, but in the meantime, Enjoy this and that!

Before the transformation this home was heavy traditional with a prolific use of European antiques. The furniture and art in the ample living room were under-scaled and lacking in cohesion. Clean lines and a neutral palette were introduced. Obelisk Home outfitted the entire living room with large comfortable furnishings in soothing grays, creams and reclaimed woods. A large library cabinet balanced the fireplace and was filled with antique books and the client’s aviary collectibles. A long reclaimed pine console was placed in front of a bank of windows drawing attention to the beautiful patio. The client’s antique breakfast table used as an end table was the pivot point between the two styles. Original art with pastoral themes breathed much needed color and energy into the space.

It has all the features of an award-winning home—a grand estate exquisitely restored to its historic New Mexico Territorial-style beauty, yet with 21st-century amenities and energy efficiency. And, for a Washington, D.C.-based couple who vacationed with their children in Santa Fe for decades, the 6,000-square-foot hilltop home has the added benefit of being the perfect gathering spot for family and friends from both coasts.
