Strong or subtle, these shades have one thing in common—you’ll never get tired of them.

Timeless Colors

Antique White 14-31

PrATT & LAmBErT

“Use this if you have to paint a room quickly and don’t know what to do. It’s a home-run color—a dirty celadon that has been in the line forever. My mother, who was also a decorator, loved it. It works for any environment—modern or traditional, no problem—and with any color—blue, red, yellow, tangerine.” AthAlie Derse

CAribbeAn Azure

2059-20

BEnjAmIn mOOrE

“If you swept this color up from the deep sea into your favorite room, you’d join the rest of the world, who have used it in Chinese porcelain, Dutch delfware, and Por-tuguese tiles. I just came back from Lisbon’s famous tile museum, and on the same trip, I saw a kitchen in Paris painted this color. Try it with glossy black trim and a pearl-gray ceiling.”Whitney steWArt

MonuMent 17-4405

PAnTOnE UnIvErSE

“This steel gray, with a hint of blue, has a kind of strength and calm that feels very architectural, almost as if it were a material integral to the room rather than a paint color. When you’re surrounded by it, the efect is like an updated version of a traditional paneled room—but a lot less expen-sive. I would do it in high gloss so it glistens.”steven GAMbrel

skiMMinG stone 241

FArrOw & BALL

“It’s one of my all-time favorite colors, a warm gray that makes a room inviting yet still clean and crisp. It works with almost any scheme, but I like to use it with either gem tones or neutrals, such as creams, browns, and dark grays. I painted my own living room this color and afer all this time I still love it, which means a lot!”blAir hArris

White sMoke 26-2

PrATT & LAmBErT

“There’s something heav-enly about this pale blue. You see it in Renaissance paintings or an early- morning sky. It would look equally great in a contem-porary setting with nubby Belgian linen, or in a more formal room with sparkling crystal sconces. Put a true white next to it and you’ll see how wonderful and subtle it really is.”PAul sherrill

triAnon rl4037

rALPH LAUrEn PAInT

“This is like that feeting blush of pink in the sky before the sun sets. It’s not what instantly comes to mind for a library, but I wanted to counter the room’s inherent masculinity. Pink is warm and atmospheric, and it makes dark antique furniture look ravishingly beautiful. It’s not an assertive color. It’s demure, which gives it longevity.” Jeffrey bilhuber

DKC-36

DOnALD KAUFmAn COLOr

“I tend to prefer more com-plex, layered tones, and this fts the bill. Lavender is the only color that’s both warm and cool, and this particu-lar shade is like quicksilver. It changes and evolves all day long. It’s cheery in the morning, restful and calm in the afernoon, and sexy in the evening’s low light.” Oliver M. Furth

City ChiC Ci 51

VALSpAr

“This taupe is efortlessly chic. It reminds me of a warm stone color, some-thing you’d see on the walls at the Louvre. Mixed with crisp Parisian black and ivory, it’s truly a timeless combination. It would look especially stunning with gold or brass accents.”erinn valenCiCh

reCtOry reD 217

FArrOw & BALL

“Red lipstick, red dresses, red walls—fabulous! Red makes you feel alive. It instills confdence. And there’s another reason people really like to sit in red rooms—they’re cozy. If you’re afraid to do the whole thing, just start with one wall. Even one shot of red will have tremen-dous impact.”MarCy MastersOn

MahOgany 36

FArrOw & BALL

“This is a rich, dramatic, yet relaxed dark chocolate that has a ton of depth. Many people are concerned about using dark colors on walls, but I fnd that they create such warmth in a room—somehow you feel enveloped in the best way.” annette english

repOse gray sW 7015

SHErwIn-wILLIAmS

“I’m not one for big pops of paint color, aside from the occasional bright front door. I prefer something more soothing, like this nice, true gray. Not too dark and not too light, it’s classic, clean, and beautiful. It works with just about anything—green, blue, yellow—and would look great in any room of the house.”ryan BrOWn

seCret garDen sW 6181

SHErwIn-wILLIAmS

“This classic hunter green feels like a color I’ve known my entire life—in the leaves of a magnolia tree, a sprig of fresh-cut basil, or my favorite fannel shirt in the second grade. In a Minnesota farmhouse kitchen, it has a comforting familiar-ity that evokes a sense of home. It’s a color with soul, and that never goes out of style.”JeFF anDreWs

Skirting the IssueFour top designers display the arresting beauty—and down-to-earth practicality—of the skirted table.

1. In a stone-foored entry, Alex Papachristidis

deployed a sumptuous paneled covering with rich

fringe to “sofen up” the space. 2. Alessandra

Branca layered cloths on a bedside table for a crisp

yet relaxed look. 3. In a twist on the conventional

console, Phoebe Howard used a

rectangular skirted piece in a

back hallway—easy-to-access

boots and dog leashes get stashed

beneath. 4. Benjamin Dhong

turned to a dramatically draped

table to anchor a space and focus

the eye. “It acts like an elegant

pedestal in the room,” he says.

Serving Up HistoryActor Bryan Batt, of Mad Men fame, celebrates his native New Orleans with a series of exquisite trays.

When Bryan Batt and his partner opened their beloved boutique,

Hazelnut, on New Orleans’s Magazine Street in 2002, it instantly

became a de rigueur stop for shoppers and decorators looking to cap-

ture the Crescent City’s inimitable style. Among the wares are an

ever-expanding collection of unique trays, edged in gold leaf and

decoupaged with historic images, which Batt designs exclusively for

the shop. The Tableau tray (above right) is based on a 19th-century

engraving of a Carnival ball Batt bought when he was in seventh

grade (“My frst antique,” he says). He unearthed the print for Map of

New Orleans (lef) at a vintage shop in the French Quarter. The trays,

all numbered, are food-safe, but they’re also pretty enough to simply

hang on a wall. From $90 each. hazelnutneworleans.com

on wallpaper“Wallpaper is a great solution to lots

of challenges,” says decorator Meg

Braf. “It’s one of the most useful

tools we designers have in our bag of

tricks. It can bring warmth and

detail to an otherwise drab room and

transform a cavernous space into an

intimate retreat. It’s an extra decora-

tive layer. And you don’t need to paper

an entire room or limit yourself to

just walls. Put it on the ceiling or

behind the shelves of a bookcase for

an unexpected moment.”

The possibilities with wallpapers are endless. Use your imagination and have fun with them!

“Papers can add visual interest and still be neutral. This one, from Cole & Son, has a subtle pattern that’s great on its own, but you could also hang art on it.”

“A powder room is a great place to make a big wallpaper statement. This one, from Quadrille, has pizzazz and wraps itself around you.”

“I’m in love with midcentury patterns, and I have been reviving designs from the archives of the Philip Graf wallpaper company. The small scale of Armenoville Sidewall [top] makes it incredibly versatile. Blenheim is a modern take on damask.”

“In a bedroom with very high ceilings, a wallpaper with a Philip Graf pattern in a large vertical repeat helps tame the fairly vast space.”

“For a library in a city apartment with bare Sheetrock walls and not that many bookshelves, I chose a dramatic black grass cloth. The texture of the grass cloth warms up the room and creates more depth than painting, glazing, or even lacquering the walls would have.”

“Patterned wallpaper can even out awkward angles in a room and make a quirky space feel more cohesive.” P

Could you have a

type of Chronic

Dry Eye disease?If you use artif cial tears often, ask

your eye doctor to screen you for

Chronic Dry Eye caused by reduced

tear production due to inf ammation.

For Chronic Dry Eye disease caused

by reduced tear production due to

inf ammation, you can use artif cial tears

for temporary relief, but they cannot help

you make more of your own tears. Only

continued use of RESTASIS® (Cyclosporine

Ophthalmic Emulsion) 0.05% twice a day,

every day, can help you make your own

tears. Individual results may vary.

Approved Use

RESTASIS® Ophthalmic Emulsion helps

increase your eyes’ natural ability to

produce tears, which may be reduced

by inf ammation due to Chronic Dry Eye.

RESTASIS® did not increase tear production

in patients using anti-inf ammatory eye

drops or tear duct plugs.

Important Safety Information

Do not use RESTASIS® Ophthalmic

Emulsion if you are allergic to any of

the ingredients. To help avoid eye injury

and contamination, do not touch the

vial tip to your eye or other surfaces.

RESTASIS® should not be used while

wearing contact lenses. If contact lenses

are worn, they should be removed

prior to use of RESTASIS® and may be

reinserted after 15 minutes.

The most common side effect is a

temporary burning sensation. Other side

effects include eye redness, discharge,

watery eyes, eye pain, foreign body

sensation, itching, stinging, and

blurred vision.

You are encouraged to report negative

side effects of prescription drugs to the

FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch,

or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Please see next page for the Brief

Summary of the full Product Information.

RESTASIS® (Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion) 0.05%BRIEF SUMMARY—PLEASE SEE THE RESTASIS® PACKAGE INSERT FOR FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION.INDICATIONS AND USAGERESTASIS® ophthalmic emulsion is indicated to increase tear production in patients whose tear production is presumed to be suppressed due to ocular infammation associated with keratoconjunctivitis sicca. Increased tear production was not seen in patients currently taking topical anti-infammatory drugs or using punctal plugs.CONTRAINDICATIONSRESTASIS® is contraindicated in patients with known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in the formulation.WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSPotential for Eye Injury and ContaminationTo avoid the potential for eye injury and contamination, be careful not to touch the vial tip to your eye or other surfaces.Use with Contact LensesRESTASIS® should not be administered while wearing contact lenses. Patients with decreased tear production typically should not wear contact lenses. If contact lenses are worn, they should be removed prior to the administration of the emulsion. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes following administration of RESTASIS® ophthalmic emulsion.ADVERSE REACTIONSClinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not refect the rates observed in practice.In clinical trials, the most common adverse reaction following the use of RESTASIS® was ocular burning (17%).Other reactions reported in 1% to 5% of patients included conjunctival hyperemia, discharge, epiphora, eye pain, foreign body sensation, pruritus, stinging, and visual disturbance (most often blurring).Post-marketing ExperienceThe following adverse reactions have been identifed during post approval use of RESTASIS®. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Reported reactions have included: hypersensitivity (including eye swelling, urticaria, rare cases of severe angioedema, face swelling, tongue swelling, pharyngeal edema, and dyspnea); and superfcial injury of the eye (from the vial tip touching the eye during administration). USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONSPregnancyTeratogenic Effects: Pregnancy Category CAdverse effects were seen in reproduction studies in rats and rabbits only at dose levels toxic to dams. At toxic doses (rats at 30 mg/kg/day and rabbits at 100 mg/kg/day), cyclosporine oral solution, USP, was embryo- and fetotoxic as indicated by increased pre- and postnatal mortality and reduced fetal weight together with related skeletal retardations. These doses are 5,000 and 32,000 times greater (normalized to body surface area), respectively, than the daily human dose of one drop (approximately 28 mcL) of 0.05% RESTASIS® twice daily into each eye of a 60 kg person (0.001 mg/kg/day), assuming that the entire dose is absorbed. No evidence of embryofetal toxicity was observed in rats or rabbits receiving cyclosporine at oral doses up to 17 mg/kg/day or 30 mg/kg/day, respectively, during organogenesis. These doses in rats and rabbits are approximately 3,000 and 10,000 times greater (normalized to body surface area), respectively, than the daily human dose.Offspring of rats receiving a 45 mg/kg/day oral dose of cyclosporine from Day 15 of pregnancy until Day 21 postpartum, a maternally toxic level, exhibited an increase in postnatal mortality; this dose is 7,000 times greater than the daily human topical dose (0.001 mg/kg/day) normalized to body surface area assuming that the entire dose is absorbed. No adverse events were observed at oral doses up to 15 mg/kg/day (2,000 times greater than the daily human dose).There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of RESTASIS® in pregnant women. RESTASIS®

should be administered to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

Nursing MothersCyclosporine is known to be excreted in human milk following systemic administration, but excretion in human milk after topical treatment has not been investigated. Although blood concentrations are undetectable after topical administration of RESTASIS® ophthalmic emulsion, caution should be exercised when RESTASIS® is administered to a nursing woman.Pediatric UseThe safety and effcacy of RESTASIS® ophthalmic emulsion have not been established in pediatric patients below the age of 16.Geriatric UseNo overall difference in safety or effectiveness has been observed between elderly and younger patients.NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGYCarcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis: Systemic carcinogenicity studies were carried out in male and female mice and rats. In the 78-week oral (diet) mouse study, at doses of 1, 4, and 16 mg/kg/day, evidence of a statistically signifcant trend was found for lymphocytic lymphomas in females, and the incidence of hepatocellular carcinomas in mid-dose males signifcantly exceeded the control value.In the 24-month oral (diet) rat study, conducted at 0.5, 2, and 8 mg/kg/day, pancreatic islet cell adenomas signifcantly exceeded the control rate in the low dose level. The hepatocellular carcinomas and pancreatic islet cell adenomas were not dose related. The low doses in mice and rats are approximately 80 times greater (normalized to body surface area) than the daily human dose of one drop (approximately 28 mcL) of 0.05% RESTASIS® twice daily into each eye of a 60 kg person (0.001 mg/kg/day), assuming that the entire dose is absorbed. Mutagenesis: Cyclosporine has not been found to be mutagenic/genotoxic in the Ames Test, the V79-HGPRT Test, the micronucleus test in mice and Chinese hamsters, the chromosome-aberration tests in Chinese hamster bone-marrow, the mouse dominant lethal assay, and the DNA-repair test in sperm from treated mice. A study analyzing sister chromatid exchange (SCE) induction by cyclosporine using human lymphocytes in vitro gave indication of a positive effect (i.e., induction of SCE).Impairment of Fertility: No impairment in fertility was demonstrated in studies in male and female rats receiving oral doses of cyclosporine up to 15 mg/kg/day (approximately 2,000 times the human daily dose of 0.001 mg/kg/day normalized to body surface area) for 9 weeks (male) and 2 weeks (female) prior to mating.PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATIONHandling the ContainerAdvise patients to not allow the tip of the vial to touch the eye or any surface, as this may contaminate the emulsion. To avoid the potential for injury to the eye, advise patients to not touch the vial tip to their eye.Use with Contact LensesRESTASIS® should not be administered while wearing contact lenses. Patients with decreased tear production typically should not wear contact lenses. Advise patients that if contact lenses are worn, they should be removed prior to the administration of the emulsion. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes following administration of RESTASIS® ophthalmic emulsion.AdministrationAdvise patients that the emulsion from one individual single-use vial is to be used immediately after opening for administration to one or both eyes, and the remaining contents should be discarded immediately after administration.Rx Only

Master BedrooMtHE CHallEngE “It’s more than just where you sleep. Create a stylish and functional space that’s a haven any time of day!”

1. unify windows of varying HEigHts

“Some rooms with vaulted ceilings have windows that difer dramatically in size on the same wall, which can make hanging window treatments tricky. But it’s OK to hang each drape at a diferent height! Give them a cohesive look by doing a bold color-blocked border of the same width across all the bottoms.”

2. CrEatE a sEnsE of airinEss “If the frame of a window awkwardly abuts an adjacent wall, you don’t have to hang a panel in that corner. Not only can that feel crowded, you’ll lose natural light and part of the view. And when a panel is pulled open, let it ‘stack’ over the window trim instead of the actual glass. This gives the illusion that your windows are larger than they are, as if there’s more window behind the fabric.”

3. inCludE an Extra plaCE to Curl up

“A small sofa at the foot of your bed is great if your kids love to pile into your room to watch TV, or if you or your spouse likes to stay up late afer the other one is asleep. It also adds another cozy spot for reading or working on your computer. Leave at least 30 inches in front of it for walk-through space. For an ottoman that can be moved around easily, choose one on casters.” p

W H e t H e r i t ’ s t H e s oBe r i ng winter

weather, which leads us to cozy up indoors,

or simply the beginning of a new year, now is a

great time—perhaps the perfect time—to take

a clear-eyed, critical look at how you’re living in

the quarters you call home. as americans, we

inherently believe in the power of a fresh start;

a good fashion or beauty makeover can work

wonders when the mood strikes. Why, then, are

so many people making do with less than their

best when it comes to their home? the feel of

a fabric, the glow of a lamp, an inviting chair,

myriad colors and patterns—the range of

resources for dressing up houses is greater and

more accessible than ever, at every price point.

While interior decorating may not seem like the

most pressing matter at hand, home is where so

much of life is lived. it’s where we wake up to face

the world, where all sorts of dramas unfold, and

where we return at the end of the day seeking rest

and renewal. for 118 years, House Beautiful has

believed that the way the inside of a house looks

matters, in every aspect of life, because there is

undeniable joy in the experience of a beautiful

room. the good news for 2015 is that it’s never too

late—or too early—to start feathering your nest.

“

PhiliP Gorrivan: I love color. I love pattern.

And ceilings represent a lot of unused

space in a house. When you put wallpaper

up there, it draws your eye and you get

the full impact of the pattern, without art

or mirrors or anything else on top. People

are afraid it will make the ceiling feel lower,

but I think it accentuates the height.

Wallpaper also tells a story.

Exactly, and narrative is really important

to me. I believe that rooms should tell a

visual story, and wallpaper is one layer,

along with furniture and art. The house

is a 1920s Colonial, and the client was very

open to trying new things to freshen it up.

She collects Scandinavian furniture and

already had those creamy white Gustavian

chairs in the dining room. I found that

Fornasetti leaf paper and had this vision

of dining in a snowy forest—and the antler

chandelier just adds to the atmosphere.

how does it feel to be in that bedroom

papered in gray clouds?

As if a storm is coming and the clouds are

rushing past. That’s got to be my favorite

wallpaper in the house. It’s very dramatic,

with a lot of motion, and you have to have

it on the ceiling to get the full efect.

all the shades of gray remind me of grisaille.

You’re right. It’s like a contemporary ver-

sion of one of those hand-painted grisaille

murals in a French château. This is the

older son’s room. He’s away at school, so it

also serves as the guest room.

it’s magical—are you indoors or out?

A lot of the papers have that indoor-outdoor

quality, to bring you closer to nature

and remind you that you’re in the country.

Why did you paint the living room brown?

Because it feels incredibly cozy on a snowy

day with the freplace blazing. I knew

this would be a winter room, because most

of their entertaining is done outdoors

during the summer. The brown is very rich

and then the trim is all white, so you get

the power of contrast.

The sofa adds more contrast, covered in that

green-and-white print.

That’s a Josef Frank fabric. I love it because

it’s bright and verdant. It’s the ultimate

country fabric. Two of the throw pillows

are covered in another Josef Frank fabric.

It doesn’t bother me to see two strong pat-

terns together—they almost neutralize

each other. Then you have that whole wall

of pictures above.

Where did you start, in hanging that?

With those three pieces in the middle.

Then we worked out from there. A lot of

switching went on. We spent the better

part of a day with it all spread out on the

foor, like a puzzle.

it’s a very interesting assortment—just like

the furniture in this room.

The furniture was another puzzle—taking

the things she owned and ftting them into

this house. Do you know why this is such a

good room? Because it’s flled with things

the homeowners love and have collected

over the years. The African masks were

bought on their travels. The grandfather

clock is English and belonged to her great-

grandfather. That’s what gives a room soul,

and it’s hard to create that from scratch.

is there any rhyme or reason to the mix?

I suppose you could say it all balances out.

From the 18th-century Danish chair to the

Biedermeier sofa to the Mies van der Rohe

daybed, you’re spanning hundreds of years

of decorative arts. I ofen like to put a

modern piece next to an antique, because

the contrast makes both stand out.

Every room in this house is so diferent.

I like having options. A house can tell many

stories. It’s nice to go from one room to the

next and have a diferent experience. Every

room is a destination, and if you get tired of

one, just go into another!

Do you know

why this is such a

good room?

Because it’s filled

with things the

homeowners love.

That’s what gives

a room soul.”

You’re fearless. such

RichaRd Keith Langham: Afer 30 years as a

traditionalist, I did fnd it exciting to break

out and do something fresh and diferent.

It’s such a departure from the more layered,

complicated rooms I usually put together.

Designing a mod, hip, spare interior really

ignited my creativity—so maybe I can jug-

gle both from now on!

in one snazzy space, you’ve encapsulated

the spirit of miami Beach.

It does speak to the energy and beat here,

bringing together the city’s glitzy, groovy

vibe. I wouldn’t have done anything like

this anywhere else, but it’s what was called

for. The apartment is in the Setai, a con-

temporary glass tower in the heart of South

Beach, and white, airy, and streamlined

is what my clients, Blaine Trump and Steve

Simon, wanted.

there are so many glossy surfaces—the

walls, foor, mirrors, and metal.

Yes, they’re very much of-the-moment

Miami. They refect the dazzling light, and

the mirrors also refect the view. The lac-

quered walls and ceiling and the porcelain

foor tiles echo the white sand on the beach

and impart simplicity to that big, open

living space. Furnishings are spare, which

further emphasizes a lightness. This

sparkling white background fatters

everything we put in the room. Each piece

becomes a sculptural presence. And every-

thing just seems to foat in space—the

shell is like a white cloud. It has an ethe-

real quality that’s anchored by sporadic

splashes of color. A lot of people gasp when

they step through the front door.

What was your reaction the frst time you

stepped through?

I’m sure I gasped too, but for a diferent

reason! And when Blaine and Steve frst

looked at the space, they thought, This will

never work, let’s not even bother.

Why the reversal?

Mostly because of the view. It’s astonish-

ing. The apartment wraps around a cor-

ner on a high foor—you see the clear aqua

ocean for miles, and you see the Miami

skyline, which is magical at night. Blaine

called and asked me to come down and take

a look. She said, ‘Now don’t get nervous, but

I have to warn you—it’s a train wreck.’

Really? that bad?

The atmosphere was sort of weighty,

almost brooding. The whole place was a mud-

dle of dirty, earthy colors—dark browns,

taupe, dull beige—and a jumble of stuf,

like heavy carved-teak furniture, potted

trees, and big Buddha heads. All the foors

were teak, and there were two teak-clad

columns cutting up the living room. There

was a border of black river rocks around

the perimeter, a dropped ceiling with can-

ister lights, and a bedroom and bath that

interrupted the panoramic vista.

this couldn’t be a more dramatic about-face.

It was a sweeping gut job. We took down

walls, eliminating that bedroom and bath

to open up the choppy foor plan and the

view, and enlarged the master bedroom.

We heightened the ceilings for more airi-

ness and added moldings that related to

Art Deco style. The teak fooring was

replaced with acres of porcelain tile. The

tiles are huge, three feet square, so you

don’t have many grout lines—you get a

beautiful, shiny expanse of white that looks

like marble. That alone became a whole new

foundation for creating these sleek, sim-

ple rooms. Except for one discreet white cot-

ton rug to anchor the main seating area, we

lef the foor bare, because we wanted as

much of that refective surface as we could

get, and also because the tile is so cool under-

foot. And I should add that white, in its way,

has a cooling efect too. It’s a good color

for hot, sunny Miami and especially for this

apartment, with all the light pouring in.

But then you jazzed it up with these vibrant

color splashes.

They’re luscious tropical colors that are

indigenous to South Florida—turquoise,

aqua, coral, kiwi green. Plus, they relate

to these divine artworks by Howard Hodg-

kin, Anish Kapoor, and Damien Hirst. We

went sofer in the master bedroom, using

gray blues that are like the sky on a misty

day. It’s very dreamy and restful.

the apartment that would never work

worked afer all.

There’s a happy, leave-your-cares-behind

mood about it that embraces the vital-

ity and easygoing attitude of Miami. It’s

glamorous, romantic, and, most of all,

uplifing. Blaine told me that every time

she walks in, her shoulders drop and she

breaks into a smile.

Does this ultrasleek

apartment mark the

beginning of a new

chapter in your

Decorating career?

CElERiE KEmblE: Yes, this is where the lumi-

nous, dark, and deep coexist. Because the

greatest challenge in here was lack of light,

every surface is refective. The walls are

wrapped in a lacquered strié that’s as shiny

as nail polish; the ceiling, chandelier, and

table are silver-leaf; and the big Venetian

mirror above the console refects the chan-

delier, doubling its twinkle. At night,

the room glistens like moonlight on a lake.

The living room, by contrast, has an inviting

natural glow.

CK: It’s flled with elements from the natu-

ral world—pen shell on the cofee table,

bone mirrors, snakeskin-patterned leather

on the ottomans, parchment accessories,

a cowhide rug. And the silk wallcovering

has a lovely, sof luster. We started with

the gilt-flecked painting that suggests

wild leaves, which to us seemed glamor-

ously lighthearted. We wanted the room

to be pretty and glittery, but also to feel

friendly and easy. All the fabrics are luxe

but durable, and the furniture begs you to

put your feet up, have a chat, and be merry.

What was the frst order of business when

you renovated?

CAROlinE iRVin: Tackling the layout of the

apartment. It was very strange, a tunnel-

like series of rooms with transom doors

that felt estranged from one another.

We needed to open it so that the rooms

fowed into each other. The worst aspect

was a huge hallway that fed of the foyer,

consuming an unnecessary amount of

square footage. It ran along the front wall

of a dreary space that had an L-shaped

kitchenette bordering two tiny bedrooms

and a bathroom.

How did you deal with it?

Ci: We took down that long wall, appropri-

ated the hallway, and turned it into the

heart of the house—a spacious kitchen that

also serves as a family room. The large-

scale trellis pattern on the foor really

helped revitalize and unify the space. And

we widened the entry to the living room.

That allowed the light from the window to

pour into the kitchen.

CK: We also widened the dining room

entry. So many people never use their din-

ing rooms, and seeing directly into this

one from the foyer made it feel like a vital

part of the apartment, a destination. These

changes made the apartment feel bigger

and much more welcoming. Openness,

inclusiveness, and playfulness were the

mission and guiding forces for our clients.

Why were those things so important to them?

CK: They’re in their 30s with two young

children, and what they wanted most was

for every area to be a family zone, with

nothing of-limits to their kids. We mostly

worked with the wife. Her husband wasn’t

concerned with the details—all he wanted

was for her to have the home of her dreams,

and the apartment very much refects her

open-armed, efervescent energy.

He had no particular requests?

Ci: Just one: The sofa across from the TV in

the living room had to be comfy and big

enough for the whole family. There isn’t a

single piece of furniture that came with

them from their previous life, and we had a

hard time prying him away from a huge

sectional that he loved. His eyes misted up

at the thought of losing it.

Has he gotten over the loss?

CK: He never looked back. They’re all thrilled

with how quickly they nestled into a place

where everything was new to them. This

apartment feels like them—although I

could easily and happily live here myself!

John Peixinho: What really attracted me was the

wonderful location in Middletown, with a brook, old

stone walls, and two beaches nearby. It’s like this

other part of Newport that wasn’t associated with

Beaux Arts mansions—the small summer houses

out in the country.

Did you worry that moving into an early American icon

might feel like camping out at old Sturbridge Village?

This was not a curatorial restoration. The school-

house was built in 1794 and Victorian-ized around

1880, but its one-room charm was erased in 1929,

when private owners converted it into a summer

place. A second foor was inserted under the eaves

in the 1980s, and some objectionable features got

added, like stained-glass windows and dark beams

screwed into the living room ceiling. I took them

out and tried to get things as close to the original as

possible, without re-creating an unlivable past.

So you transformed a no-nonsense classroom for

fdgety kids into an easygoing hangout for grown-ups?

I let three spots within the living room dictate

smaller groupings, where people can relax and chat.

There’s the area around the freplace, the weird

angle at the foot of the stairs, and the alcove for the

schoolmarm’s desk—centered between the girls’

and boys’ entrances—which has become a window

seat. In simple spaces that don’t have tremendous

architectural integrity, symmetry helps to create

order. My whole living room really revolves around

those two windows fanking the freplace. And I’ve

always been a fan of pairing table lamps on each

side of a mantel. They give of a cozy glow, even when

there’s no fre burning.

And you’ve balanced classic vase-lamp bases with a

quirky little Colonial Revival sconce here and there.

Like that captain’s-wheel light by the stairs? It’s just

the kind of thing Henry Sleeper might have used at

Beauport, in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in the ’20s. I

love how kitschy but in good taste—well, for the most

part—that place is. It really has had an impact on my

appreciation of Americana.

Did your choice of traditional red siding afect your

indoor palette?

When I go home, I need to get away from a lot of color

and pattern. The burlap on the living room walls

is neutral, but it also reminds me of school bulletin

boards. The frst commission I ever did was a room

How did a former tHird-grade

teacHer—now newport’s gold-

star decorator—come to live

in a little red scHoolHouse?

for Oatsie Charles, whose previous decorator, Tom

Hagerman, had covered the walls in burlap. That lef

its mark on me. Burlap gives texture, warmth, and

depth without making a huge statement that you can’t

undo or work around easily. The same goes for the

woven straw in my dining room. It spans the range

from casual to formal.

Plus it’s a terrifc backdrop for your salon-style hanging

of ink paintings. Who is the artist?

Van Day Truex, who’s much better known, of course,

as a designer. Houses all over Newport have at least

one painting by him, because 50 years ago, Truex was

friends with everybody’s grandmother or aunt. I’ve

admired him ever since I saw a house he did for him-

self in the South of France—bamboo furniture cov-

ered in rough cotton and bottles that had been turned

into lamps. It was smart, inviting, and cozy, but

totally clean and pure.

What links that modern aesthetic to antiques like your

Chippendale-era chairs?

Those are 18th-century Newport pieces. The cabinet-

makers here were mostly Quakers, so the propor-

tions and scale have an unembellished strength that

speaks to you in a diferent way than a fancy New

York side chair would.

And also speaks to the Yankee simplicity of your bed-

room upstairs. Do you ever pull the rope in the belfry?

Yes, usually I do it for company. First-time guests

can’t believe that the original bell is still there, and

that it sounds so good.

Right: Glazed French pottery gleams

in the light of a leaded-glass window

in the breakfast area. OppOsite: When

which still features its original milk

Above: Pupils entered the landmark Peabody School through separate doors for girls and boys. “The exterior appears much as it did in the early 20th century,” Peixinho says. He removed faux-Victorian gingerbread added about 20 years ago and “tweaked the 1980s paint color. The red had been too blue.” He opted instead for Benjamin Moore’s Country Redwood. below: Outside his barn, the designer sets the table on the porch he assembled from new tree-trunk columns and the roof of a tumbledown chicken coop.

With 10 restaurants,

three cookbooks, and several

national TV shows under his

belt, the James Beard Award–

winning chef is busy. But he

always makes time to cook at

home for family and friends.

“There’s something so soul-

ful about cooking for the peo-

ple you love and who are closest

to you,” Besh says. “My wife,

Jenifer, and I have four sons,

and one of the things I want

most for them to know is who

they are through the food and

people around them.

“Folks get intimidated by

entertaining, which is why

I keep things simple. Some-

times I’ll cook one of the dishes

I grew up on. Sometimes I’ll

go out on a limb and try some-

thing new. But I always prep as

much in advance as possible—

it cuts down on stress and lets

me focus on what’s ultimately

most important: creating

a great atmosphere for all my

guests to enjoy.

“I love bringing together

people who might not usually

cross paths. There’s so much

we can learn from one another

around the table. Communing

and literally breaking bread

builds connections and pulls

down boundaries. Home is a

refuge, a sanctuary, and food

is a part of that.”

Welcome, John!The Louisiana native kicks of his House Beautiful column with some thoughts on entertaining and a cherished family recipe.

Coat the chicken with four before

frying.

93H O U S E B E A U T I F U L

My Grandmother’s Fried Chicken“It’s the classic buttermilk batter that gives this fried chicken its crunchy texture. The batter should just barely adhere to the chicken, so make sure you give each piece a little shake to let some extra drop of before frying. My grandmother would put the lid on her pot afer the chicken went in the hot oil, and a kind of pressure-cooker thing would begin to happen, meaning the meat inside got to cook through while leaving the outside crispy.”

Yield: 6 servings

1 free-range organic chicken, cut into 8 pieces

Salt

Freshly ground black pepper

1 quart buttermilk

3 cups four

Canola oil

1.  Season the chicken

pieces generously with

salt and pepper. In a

large bowl, soak the

chicken in the buttermilk

for at least 15 minutes.

The idea is that the

lactic acid tenderizes

the chicken. Sometimes

my grandmother

would even soak the

chicken overnight in

the fridge.

2.  Season the four with

salt and pepper and

spread on a plate or in a

wide bowl. Dredge each

chicken piece in the sea-

soned four to coat well.

3.  Heat about 1 inch of

the canola oil in a cast-

iron Dutch oven until it

reads 350˚F on a candy

thermometer. In small

batches, place a few

pieces of the chicken in the

oil at a time and fry for 6 to

8 minutes. Using a slotted

spoon, carefully turn over

each piece, then cover the

pot and cook for an addi-

tional 6 minutes. Drain

the fried chicken on paper

towels and salt well.

B a t h o f t h e m o n t h

lifestyle

Belgian style, with its envel-

oping neutrals accented by

rustic woods, was the inspira-

tion for the new bathroom

in Susan Bednar Long’s 1800

Connecticut country house.

She chose honed limestone

for the counter, the shower

stall, and the foor because it

reminded her of creamy sand

and had a velvety touch. “It’s

porous, and maintenance can

be an issue, but it’s sealed so

that helps,” she explains. “I

have a silver tray on the vanity,

and that’s where I put my cofee

cup so it doesn’t leave a ring.”

The limestone tiles in

the shower measure 12 by

24 inches, rather than the

more common 12 by 12, so they

resemble slabs of stone. On

the foor, they alternate with

bands of Heartwood Natural

porcelain tile by Walker Zanger,

which looks remarkably like

limed wood but can stand up

to water. “I love the rhythm and

the crispness of stripes, and

the bold foor is a surprise,”

Long says. “It makes the room

feel modern.”

That creates a nice counter-

point to the old-fashioned fx-

tures, the Jacobean-style chair,

and the drop-leaf table, topped

with a lamp. “Lamplight is very

cozy and adds to the warmth as

soon as you walk in,” she says.

“I like to use real furniture in

a bathroom. It sofens all

the hard surfaces. Too many

built-ins turn me of. I want to

be unique and diferent.”

“I pull out my folding ruler for everything, from figuring

out wainscoting heights to crown molding thicknesses. I can bend

it and prop it against a wall to simulate a three-dimensional piece

of furniture. You can’t do that with a tape measure!”

“OOK picture hooks are the only ones I’ll use.

The thin nail slides easily into plaster

or Sheetrock without damaging walls.”

“I always carry a stash of felt protectors to put beneath

furniture on wood floors, or to wedge under tables as shims.”

“The level in my smartphone’s compass

helps me hang pictures, and I check an

app called LightTrac to figure out the direction

of the sun in relation to a room.”

are scissors, screwdrivers, and even a bottle opener, for when
