This foyer/vestibule area was in the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra Showhouse 2002. The handpainted mural was designed by Eve and her extremely talented painter to create an "English Countryside" feel as you entered the house. The bombay chest, leather carved chair, and artist's iron garden bench give a relaxed formality to the entryway.

This adorable nursery had a cathedral ceiling, so I created a voluminous "corona" over the crib to help cozy up the room. The wonderful achitectural details of the room were enhanced with wallpaper borders in the ceiling creases, on the ceiling where it meets the wall, and along the bumber of the crib creating a chairrail effect around the room . The matching fabric gave a soft crown draping effect from the corona to the floor. The Mom was delighted!

 

This stunning guest bedroom was done in a soft romantic style using matlesse and sheer toile fabric in different shades of mint green. It all started with the client's mother's antique vanity chair. The tone on tone green fabrics were of all different textures with a green damask wallpaper and pale green petit point carpet. All the accessories, including a cheval mirror, were in a soft nickel/pewter finish.

This living room in Chicago was in a new home where the owner wanted a dressy, English garden look. The walls were painted in a deeper tone of beige to "pop" the fantastic moldings. It was a small sitting room and light colors were used on the largest surfaces, sofa, and walls to make the room look as large as possible with punches of color on the plaid taffeta drape and floral chintz of the chair. The oil painting and wall shelves added just the right "manor house" finishing touches.
