Adore October 2019

reading and lounging after dinner. Anchored by an 18th century Italian marble top table from Shaun's shop and a second fireplace (both original to the house), the rooms work effortlessly together. KiKi helmed the kitchen renovation. What was once a back porch is now a bistro-inspired adorable kitchen right off of a large family room. The stainless drawers are actually tool chests from Lowe's and the cabinets are repurposed old shutters. A crystal chandelier moved from one of the original front rooms, a dramatic giltwood mirror found

at Dop Antiques and a thick slab of honed marble on the counter bring loads of patina and bling. But the pièce de résistance? The charming penny tile floor. Whether mixing a pair of Panton white sculptural chairs with a Provençal tablecloth or dressing an antique settee in a strong Pierre Frey graphic print, there is so much to love in this beautifully decorated home. The palette is crisp and warm, the decor layered and uncluttered; it strikes a wonderful balance of comfortable and chic. Happy clients make happy designers.
