INTERIORS
For the interior it was decided to salvage as much of the cabinetry as possible since it was so integral to the house . An expansive hallway , two dressing rooms and library shelves were saved and new casework was designed in a contemporary style . Walnut wood veneer added warm touches to the home .
In the kitchen the casework is painted high gloss white contrasted with walnut . I find that contrasting elements create welcome tension and the clashing of these elements creates visual interest . The kitchen probably comes closest to a Mid-Century appointed room . Bertoia bar stools with comfy lambskin on the back and reproduction light fixtures hark to the modern .
The powder room ’ s sconce is made from agate and the shell vase is a family heirloom . The vintage watercolor is by Jean Paul Parent .
