The smallest details can make the biggest impressions.
Note the design of the staircase with its exposed wood
treads, white risers and spindles, and the polished
woodwork that leads the eye upwards towards the
open gallery bridge that crosses the foyer.
A strong artistic influence can be seen in the separation
of rooms throughout this home. Note how the marble
flooring with square tile insets in the foyer steps down
to the linear hardwoods in the two-story formal living
room by way of gently curved steps that iterate the
sinuous lines of the rising staircase.
Paneled walls rise to inordinate heights for a dramatic
chiaroscuro effect of increased space and volume in all
living areas at any time of day.

built-in bookcases, a crystal chandelier, paneled walls and ceiling treatment, custom drapery and

large sconces in black wrought iron hold incandescent lightbulbs that cast a beautiful golden glow upon
