This dining room has been a great client project realized. Heather Heider and her husband Scott have been super fun flexible clients to work with. This dining room was formerly a formal living room space which was not being utilized. Heather & Scott are highly social people who entertain on a constant basis and lead busy professional lives. From the start, Heather had a a vision of a chic but comfortable dining space that could accommodate intimate or large social gatherings. Grown up, not stuffy and incorporating her life long passion of Fox Hunting, all things equestrian and family effects. We started with paint in a chic pewter and grey large stripe. Moved to window treatment designs, fabric selection and color schemes From there the vibe and energy came alive. The settee is a family heirloom from her Grandmother. The gilt spider web design dining chairs were a fabulous local find. The beautiful 19th century Italian carved wood arbor was a prized possession of Heather's Mom. Scott pieced it back together and we mounted it. Moving a mirror from another room below it. The paintings above the side board, fondly called the drunk Germans are a family tradition. Chartreuse panels paired with custom window treatments "popped" against the chic pewter/gray large striped walls. Paint colors were by Ralph Lauren. Mixing gold and silver with chocolate and black accents.
Great fun! We are on to the family room.
Client and friend, Tahsin's dining room. Bronze and Gold Stripe with a pewter sheen paired with leopard wall paper below chair rail. The husband was not so sure but once complete he was glad he listened to us! Very elegant with Tahsin's amazing treasures from India and Europe. Meeeooow!
