DINING ROOM, Harrison, NY: This dining room design transformed a red-walled and overly ornate space into an elegant space fitted with modern furnishings and luxurious details. The silk blue wallcovering wraps the room to create a beautiful, timeless look. The dentil crown molding nods to the historic nature of the home and it inspired the selection of the striking linear glass lighting pendant, the glass pieces repeating the shape in a modern way. The custom curtains of Holly Hunt silk fabric, have an open textural weave that allows light to filter through specific sections, again connecting to the idea of void vs solid found in the molding. Even the polished nickel curtain rods and rings are rectilinear. The silhouette of the chairs that surround the modern marble-look expanding table look feminine with their slight curves, yet balanced with a gray-blue leather covering that gives a more tailored look. The carved wood front buffet cabinet with lacquered gray sides brings a warm feel, plus the piece contributes to the marriage of classic details and modern style, allowing the dining room to be both formal and fresh.
