Design Features
- Floor-to-ceiling windows do a lot of the work here. Soft daylight spills through the sheer drapery and the whole back wall ends up as one of the room's quiet focal points - not just a pass-through space.
- A glass chandelier hangs at the centre of a coffered ceiling and the layered petal shape softens a formal and symmetrical room.
- Two antique gold folding screens stand behind the main sofa. The paint panels add an unexpected touch of Chinoiserie against a clean and contemporary backdrop.
- Olive green velvet armchairs with fringed hems break up the ivory palette and give seating arrangement some depth without pulling focus from the view outside.
- And underfoot a black-white checkerboard marble floor stretches the length of the room - a crisp, graphic contrast against all that soft drapery and upholstery up above.
