Working from the existing home’s deficits, we designed a bright and classic home well-suited to today’s living. Instead of a dark tunnel-like entry, we have a skylight custom curving stair that no one can believe is not original. Instead of a maze of rooms to reach the gorgeous park-like backyard, we have a clear central axis, allowing a sightline right through from the top of the stairs. Instead of three bedrooms scattered all over the house, we have zoned them to the second floor, each well-proportioned with a true master suite. Painted wood paneling, face-frame cabinets, box-beam beilings and Calacatta counters express the classic grandeur of the home.

The bohemian flair continues into the kitchen with a multitude of patterned pillows adorning the built-in banquet for a welcoming and cozy effect. The contemporary work of original art plays along perfectly and keeps things exciting.

We dressed their indoor space with light and sheer fabrics to provide privacy in each room without sparing any of the view. In the master bath and kitchen, Hunter Douglas Nantucket™ Sheer Shades with PowerView not only complement the airy space, but also offer easy privacy with just the push of a button. Roman Shade valances and panels are elegant touches that raise the eye to the full height of each window and frame the view.

The light, airy sheers with delicate floral embroidery afford privacy on the lower portion of the window; a soft balloon valance with gentle folds in the main fabric pattern help to conceal window darkening shades. The valance arches echo the rhythm of the arched window. A curtain in pink ticking is tied back with a bow that matches the valance; all of these fabrics are taken from the bed. This multi-faceted window treatment dresses this important focal point without interfering with the beauty of the striking window arch, which allows the outdoors to come in and maximizes ambient daylight in the room.
