Colonial Reimagined
In the well-used adjoining breakfast room, we added an iconic Serena & Lily marble bistro table and Riviera rattan dining chairs. The open-cage, Diego Giacometti-inspired pendant with four elegant, floral blooms in an antique-burnished brass finish pairs well with the pen and ink botanical prints. The sitting room’s crown jewel is the cloverleaf ottoman upholstered in an unexpected woven-zebra velvet. After showing my client the fabric, I learned it was discontinued at the production mill. Not knowing how long it would take the company to find another mill, I suggested reconsidering the choice. But my smitten client was determined to have it - and it was well worth the wait.
Four classic club chairs nestle the ottoman inviting family conversation; a special point of interest is that there are no televisions in any of the family living spaces.
The “Gem Modern Vine Chandelier” by Hammerton offers an intriguing juxtaposition of organic and geometric design to the vaulted ceiling. The expansive windows were left uncovered to bring in as much natural light as possible while offering a verdant view of the lush backyard.
