Their designer had no trouble convincing them to choose teal-green for living room walls, terra-cotta for the dining room, and pale apricot for the master bedroom and remodeled kitchen. And all the ceilings were repainted in a subtle yet fresh cream tone. With Applewhite’s help, her clients selected new upholstery fabrics and new window treatments. “The house had no oomph,” said one owner. “Now I walk through the door and think I’m really glad to be home.”
The new palette was inspired by musical motifs painted on a custom armoire that holds the owners’ music system. With teal-green and terra-cotta dominant, the piece creates a striking transition between the living and dining rooms. The homeowners started their collection of unusual walking sticks during one of their many visits to London.
An oblong table with a lacquered top is the dining room’s centerpiece. Some of the owners’ glass collection is displayed in the giant hutch. The rug inspired the colors chosen for the nubby seat covers of the pineapple-back chairs.
