Colorful Convival Home

PROJECT

Not your typical family home—this one balances globe-trotting careers, a love of books, and a flair for entertaining. We designed spaces that reflect both him and her, with a soaring stair hall that doubles as a dinner party venue and a family room that skips the living room formality. The showstopper? A cigar-ready two-story library with secret doors and moody tones.

INSPIRATION

A round, two-story library that the client had longed for since childhood was the jumping off point.

THE CLIENT

The husband is quite formal and bold while the wife is more casual and cozy.
