In the living room an elegant white and cream palette provides a calm backdrop to the bolder blue accents of the painted bookshelf wall, geometric silk pillows, and fretwork coffee table. Flanking the fireplace are Louis IV French chairs recovered in a white Schumacher fabric with Oscar de la Renta’s Chevron Ribbon fabric applied to the outer panels. The accent pillows are a geometric cotton silk from the David Hicks Collection. Above the fireplace is the painting Great Spruce Head Island, Large Day by Brita Holmquist.
