192 INSPIRED INTERIORS
ABOVE: Keeping with the home's Hollywood Regency style, the entry includes 18th-century mirrors that reflect the large Baccarat chandelier. Double ottomans balance
the space by lending a soft texture to the surrounding hard surfaces and coordinate with the ottomans in the nearby living room. The lamps we chose to utilize here were
too short, so I added custom-carved gilded wood and Lucite bases along with custom shades to achieve the proper height.
FACING PAGE: The formal entry leads into the essential gathering space: the dining room. Deep emerald green components catch the eye, including the silk damask
fabric on the chairs and the luxurious wallcovering. The room is a curated blend of old and new, resulting in a space that is timeless, elegant, and fun. A dark chest opens
to reveal shocking pink-lined drawers, and sits beneath a treasure of carefully chosen accessories. Soft pink accents are found throughout the home and convey the overall
whimsy and grace of the property.
