200 INSPIRED INTERIORS
BELOW: After purchasing the classic dining table and white slipcovered chairs, it only felt natural to accent the archway
with Ralph Lauren's pinstriped wallpaper. Though the clients were unsure about the crystal chandelier at first, after they
saw the sparkle they agreed it helped give the black walls depth.
FACING PAGE: I'm not a fan of things being too matchy-matchy, especially with dining room chairs. So whenever I can,
I mix it up by adding a complimentary bench; I like to add that feature.
