It’s Wednesday, so it must be “A room I love” time….just a simple hello, from me to you, featuring a Room that I Love.
Nothing says classic like Phoebe Howard. She has such a gift for balance and scale and symmetry, as well as gentle beauty.
I truly admire Phoebe’s work. And of course, I have ditto-ed her beautiful work {check out this ditto post about a stunning dining room of her design, and this ditto post about a timeless foyer of her design}.
So once again, you are catching me, loving another space by Phoebe Howard. This space is uber-traditional. I don’t tend to be drawn to spaces that I would define as “very traditional,” and despite that, I am still drawn to it:
What I love:
- the amazing textured and creamy wallpaper
- the dramatic, layered drapes that match the walls… like icing on a cake.
- masterful and timeless symmetry.
- perfectly balanced furnishings, in presence and height.
- The light colors keep the heavy upholstery presence from becoming, well, too heavy.
- the soothing colors of cream, blue, and green that work beautifully with the riverfront view
- the riverfront view!!
- those awesome brass shelves beside the fireplace.
- lots and lots of {comfy} places to sit!
- tufts. tufts. everywhere.
Do you love it??
