having those silent moments are very special .”
Most of the artwork in the home is courtesy of Gary ’ s expert eye , but there is one area of the home that is distinctly Wilfredo Emanuel : his closet . Though he and Harlan are known for their wardrobes , the one area Emanuel designed solely to his own tastes houses his fashion secrets .
It wouldn ’ t be home to Naples ’ own go-to tabletop designer without a beautiful , ageless wood table , which Emanuel decorates for Valentine ’ s Day , Christmas and an array of holidays , using that as his showcase .
The exterior of Emanuel and Harlan ’ s home is where they love to pass the time . The stunning outdoor space is very manicured and sophisticated , with a Beverly Hills feel in the black and white striped awnings . Everywhere in and around the house Emanuel has created artful vignettes , just as he is famous for doing for his clients . In each room , each scene has a beginning , middle and end — all tiny productions that tell the tale of its inhabitants .
“ A house can tell a story in a thousand beautiful moments , unique to its owner and in my case , I really enjoy being at home ,” says Emanuel .
