Designer's Notes

This room features cypress beams, individually-designed wrought iron lighting, Venetian arches and Moorish-style painting. The fireplace and columns are hand-carved from ancient fossil stone, and the walls are Venetian-plastered. The furnishings are a mixture of pieces, some with light, modern lines and others with a more traditional Mediterranean look.
Design Tip: Lighten up a traditional space by carefully adding touches of modern in the artwork, furnishings or accessories. ©Photo by Stephen Allen Photography.
