A living room that breaks all the rules but breaks them in style. Not a chance your guests will feel stuffy or formal here. Curves dictate most pieces with a few straight lines thrown in for contrast. An antique library table piled with books and an abundance of art means there is always something to pique your interest. The black tissue paper circles turn an Ikea lamp into a Noguchi look alike. Ralph Lauren’s Rhino Tusk provides the glow. Art all by family members young and old. Chaise by Ikea, black woven chair from a thrift store painted black - always look at the shape of the piece - not the color - color can almost always be changed.
