the generous proportions of the master bedroom
include 10-foot-high ceilings. The sculptural bed has
stained-walnut and white-lacquer posts. Botanical fabric
for the curtains and Roman shades lends a garden feeling
while Christofi added richness to the scheme with
sponge-glazed walls and a faux walnut-grain finish on the
fireplace. In the entry hallway (facing page), crisp white
paneling draws the eye across the warm oak floors to the
staircase; the dark paneled doors lead to the kitchen.
