BELOW TOP: In this living room, we wanted to do something a little different than a standard approach of flanking the fireplace with symmetrical bookshelves. Instead
we used the elongated right-hand side of the fireplace for bookshelves and then we installed a large wall mirror on the left-hand side. The wall mirror not only reflects the
natural light coming in f rom the f ront windows, but it also reflects the art collage on the wall opposite.

BELOW BOTTOM LEFT: I love to use a piece of art to inspire a room's décor. The opposite approach, where pieces are selected to match the furnishings, is anathema to me.
For clients who have not started their personal collections, we help them find works that might speak to them, and in many cases we work with their own photography of
meaningful places, events, or people to make something special to anchor the space.

BELOW BOTTOM RIGHT: In this larger-scale great room, the custom-designed wall paneling became the art we incorporated into the tall space.
