Traditional Ethnic Refuge, Full Home Design
This library melds traditional and ethnic elements, incorporating African items from the client’s travels. Serving as a library and music room, this space has a neutral and off white palette framed by dark wood moldings and trim and stained wooden shutters and a custom stained bookcase. The draperies are made of hand-painted taupe velvet, and the hardware is painted metallic silver with glass finials.
The room’s sisal rug is accented at its center with a chinoiserie cocktail table atop a zebra skin. Oak stained dark walnut hardwood flooring sets off a British colonial daybed topped with taupe chenille and throw pillows created from an African textile.
