Kathy Deve rell~ of Thomasville congratulates Classic Women Susan Cox and Carol Wells-Reed.

Susan lives by these words from Mother Teresa: " We do not have to accomplish great monumental acts in our 1ive~,just small acts with great love."

When Peggy laPorte of Fedenl Way, Washington, saw the effect of homelessness on her cOlllmunity, she gathered girlfnends and III 1993 founded FUSION (Friends United to Shelter tbe Indigent, Oppressed & Needy) to provide transitional hOllsing to women and children until they can acquire their own permanent homes.

"All human beings deserve to live and work within welcoming environmentS," agrees honoree SU&ll1 Fredman , a Chicago designer who founded Designs for Dign ity III 2000 to tnnsforlll nonprofit f.1Cilities that serve those who suffer from poverty, violence, addiction, and discrimination. She ca11s on her contacts in the industry for pro bono expertise and to contribute needed Rooring, furniture, and accessories.

When Debra Jenkins and husband Alan wanted to give back to their c0ll1l1ll111ity, she shamdes~ly borrowed Nike's slog;m, ''JUSt ])0 It!" The couple bought a dilapidated building in H untsville, Alabama, and after massive renov:ttion, transformed it into a performing arts center. Even better, it's home to Dance Your Dreams, a program Debn started for chi ldrcn with physical, mental, and cmotional disabilities.

Decause she herself had been nearly homeless years ago as a single mother, Carol Wells- Reed was llloved when she learned about children in her hometown ofl3onney L,1ke, Washinl:,'ton, who despentely needed clothing and school supplies. Although Carol founded the Lions 4 Kids House clothing bank, she credits the cOll\munity for its success: "While the conductor issues instructiolls, it is the orchestra that makes music."

Please join me in congntulating these six energetic and truly caring womcil for tile beautiful music thcy're making in their communities across the country. Like Marhraret Mead, I ~hall "never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens call change the world."

Darryl Carter for Thomasvi lle set the stage-and Thomasville gave each cause a $1,000 award.

TRADITIONAL HOME

THERE IS SOMETHING HIGHLY SATISFYING ABOUT WATCHING someone do what t hey were born to do. That's t he way it is with these 20 young t raditional designers we're keeping our eye on as the decade turns. From the elegant eccentricity of NYC's Ondine Karady (formerly a set decorator for HBO's Sex and the City) to the neut ral but nuanced urban interiors of Washington. D.C:s Paul Corrie. these vibrant designers are exploring what it means to be traditional in the 21st century. For some, it means saturated colors and lively patterns that buzz with yout hful energy; for some. it means gomg gorgeously green; for some, it means classic architecture rendered eloquent through elegant restraint.

Although their visions are diverse, what unites them is the conviction that honoring the past goes hand in hand with interpreting the present. Pablo Picasso once said. "It takes a long t ime to become young." We look forward to watching these up-and-comers for a long t ime to come.

Making reference to furniture built for travel. his refined interpretations have been used worldwide- from Hamptons cottages to palaces in the Middle East to a yacht on the Med iterranean. "My father had a period Roorkhee chair,"' he explains. "And because he was in the military, we shuffled around a lot . Every time we moved, I had to take the chair apart and reassemble it. I've always associated that furniture with the journey."

Decorators have long been inspired by the sophistication of worldly cl ients- •

A vintage louis Vuitton suitcase calls to mind a more elegant time when the journey was as goo:l as the destination. Luggage lovers revere the lovely. ripe scent of aged, honey-colored leather and a goo:l vintage (pre- 195()). "They shouldn't have that spooky-attic smell or stains inside," cautions Abigail Rutherford of Chicago's Leslie Hindman Auctioneers. Lost keys also depress value. But compared to retai l, LV luggage is a bargain at auction. At Manhattan's Doyle auctions. a mediumsized hard suitcase in LV fabric, bound in leather and brass, went for $813. While Goyard and Asprey also attract col lectors, fashion historian Caroline Milbank says, "Vuitton leads the field." Why? "Marc Jacobs keeps the Vuitton name alive."

Fair March 17 through 23. The pop culture treasures, assembled by collector David Gainsborough Roberts, a retired London investment Danker, aren't for sale. But the show is reason enough to kick-start travel plans.

like many treasure hunters, Roberts is a preservationist, one who cares for 5,000· plus vintage objects. Among his favorites are Marilyn Monroe's red-sequin dress from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, AI Capone's engraved cigarette case, and a Bulova watch worn by Clyde Barrow (of Bonnie and Clyde fame), with the hands stopped at the moment of his death,

"It's all about the stories the objects tell," says the collector in a phone interview from his home in Jersey, England. (He's not yet persu~ded actress Debbie Reynolds to part with Monroe's billowing white halter dress from The Seven Year Itch.)

Coulbom attributed the seven-foot-tall secretaire to the noted 18thcentury English cabinetmaker Giles Grendey.

beautiful books These brilliantly colored repros will warm up your winter

Taschen, an international fine arts book publisher, has just released two tomes that are actually centuries old, in editions that mark the first reprints ever for each. In both Shells: Conchology or the Natural History of Sea, Freshwater, Terrestrial and Fossil Shells and A Chronicle of the Crusades, the artwork is exquisite and the subject matter is educational. And in Crusades, the opportunity to plunge

into history headfirst instead of from the emotionally dry distance of six centuries is sharply exhilarating.

Shells features 216 pages with 80 hand-colored, copperengraved plates of shells. Modern readers won't be disappointed in the splendid magenta, rose, pink, orange, emerald, aqua, turquoise, and amber hues that, after the introduction, brilliantly dance across e>tery other oversized page.

Plan to spend some time with A Chronicle of the Crusades. Appreciation of Volume

One's 277 parchment folios and their 66 fiJ1€1y detailed miniatures can't be absorbed in a single sitting-maybe not even in an entire season of them.

Crusades is not for the fa int of heart. Battles during the Middle Ages were the most gory and gruesome in history, and the book's illustrations tel l all. - candace Manroe ~

-Flowers bring vitality to any environment. - JENNIFER McGARIGLE

"Living with flowers is a commitment to being present and enjoying the moment--all year 'round," Jennifer says. "II doesn't matter if you pick flowers from your own backyard, buy them from the market, or hire a floral designer to fil l your favori te vases-it's about bringing the power of the flower into your life."

Her Floral Art atelier is the bright spot (literally) on Venice's trendy Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Here, spring flowers bloom all yea r, and color saturates every surfaceincluding the eye-catching kelly green facade. Right at home among the au courant coffee ba rs and stunningly chic clothing boutiques, the shop's colorful windows cure even the most winter-weary window-shopper's cabin fever.

"I think there are similarities between our space here and the things we make," Jennifer says. "Overall, the shop is light. spacious, and welcom i ng. ~

JENNIFER'S 10 TIPS FOR DECORATING WITH FLOWERS

o Seasonal centerpiece Fill a clear but simple trough with seasonal papelWhites or amaryllis bulbs embedded within vibrant green moss. It's a balanced blend of traditional and architectural, and will last for weeks. 8 Singular impact The pop of a monochromatic floral arrangement in any room is dramatic and fresh. It draws attention with its simplicity. @) Mirroredcontainers For added sparkle in a traditional space, antique mirrored boxes are great for floral arrangements, plants, and even trees. Semipermanent juniper trees displayed in oversized versions of these mirrored boxes are amazing statement pieces.

floral flourishes "Plum Calla Lily" bench (below). $2,250, ava ilable al floralartla .com . Righi, Jennifer 10 her workshop.

o Extraordinary orchids When decorating with orchids, group the same variety and color together for greater effect. o Accessories with flower power Simple, mooern accessories in neutral tones and materials are best when creating eclectic mixes within a traditional space. I love the Floral Art sepiatoned "Peony Tray" for this. It's classic, has an edge, and brings the beauty of flowers into the space. o Flowers as art Striking, graphic photos of flowers (in color or black and white) offer an artful way to bring blooms into any room.

8 Edible entertaining Fresh nasturtiums or pansies beautifully adorn a salad or an appetizer tray. And they're edible! ~ Vase selection Ensure that you choose the proper vase for each surface. Rectangular and square vases look best on rectangu lar tables. For round tables, either round or square will work. @) Easy and eye-catching For Instant Zen, float white blossoms (orchids work well) in a simple glass bowl filled with water. 11) A lot for a little Get a great vase with a small opening. You won't have to use a lot of flowers, which will save money but still manage to impress.

DO IT RIGHT Etiquette and manners peJVade all aesthetics and occasions. Whether you're young or mature, it's never too late to brush up on dining and social skills. Expert Peggy Post, whose great ·grandmother-in-Iaw. Emily Post. made good behavior fashionable in her book titled Etiquette, confirms the following tips: 1. POWER OFF Talking or te)(ting on a cel l phone is a no-no at the dinner table. That includes the vibrating mode. Turn it off, and gille your companions the attention they deserve. 2. PROPER PASSES SeJVing dishes should be passed around the table counterclockwise. Assist the diner next to you by holdlllg the seJVing dish, in this case a bread basket, while she seJVes herself. 3. CH IVALRY MAnERS A lady is honored by hailing her chair pulled out for her. At formal dinners, a man should pull the seat out for the woman to his right. 4. GET A GRIP If the pur~ of the utensils is confusing, start from the outside and work your way in. Don·t clench, but use your forefingers as guides. If you lealle the table during the meal, place the napkin to the left of your plate until you return . And remember, when you are finished eating, place the handles of your utensils at 4 o'clock on the round plate, pointed toward 10 o'clock.

Tht': brothers do agree that the soft-sounding nmlle "linsey-woolsey" isn't really descriptive of the scratchy yarns used to weave most of America's first handmade bedspreads. The name implied a linen "Iinsey" warp crossed by the wool "woolsey" weft threads, but it turns Out that homespun wool is the most comlllon thread in both directions. This was discovered when textile experts dug below the surf:lce to scrutinize weave structure with the same kind of intensity once reserved for bn Lshstrokes.

But a phone call to Winterthur Museums senior texti le curator Linda Eaton shot that down: "Calimanco is not just a glazed wool. It has a very specific weave structure-a broken twill.

CALIMANCO A stiff and shiny long-staple wool fabric, calimanco was originally used for clothing (mainly skirts and jackets) and shoe uppers. "Each warp goes over four weft yarns and under one [4:11. and there is no obvious diagonal in the weave structure," explains curator Eaton . "Calimanco is a tightly woven broken twill-very similar to a smooth salin ."

offers luxury living while safeguarding the environment. Turner, president of GreenSpur builders, has been focused on sustainable building practices for several years; he found a willing partner in Lowham, a senior vice president of West Group, a largely commercial developer in McLean , Virginia. "As a resident and member of the development commun ity for more than 20 years, I want to pass along to my own child ren thai how and where we bui ld has a direct impact on our planel,~ Lowham says.

The house's Interiors have an equally compelling green story. Lowham recru ited fr iend and designer Ba rry Dixon to lead a group of interior designers in beautifu lly appointing the house, using sustainable and environmentally responsible materials.

"We wanted to show that there is such a thing as luxu rious sustainable living," Barry says. "There is much more to a green house than unbleached linen and drab, neutra l color schemes."

Nineteen designers outfitted 18 rooms with sumptuous and richly colored fabrics, plush rugs, graceful tables, inviting chairs, and glamorous mica-encrusted wa ll coverings- all eco-kind materials.

The 3,800-square-foot house served as a fund-raiser for CharityWorks, an organization helping children and famil ies in the Wash ington, D.C., area . Traditional Home was the national media

The minimal environmental impact of the prOject started with the site in an established neighborhood in McLean, within wa lking distance of retail shops and mass transit. An existing brick rambler on the site was demolished, but that, too, was environmentally responsible. A crew dismanlled the house "shingle by shingle and board by board," and 97 percent of the old house was salvaged and recycled, Turner says.

The house has a geothermal heating and cooling system and in-floor radiant heat. Sola r photovol taic panels generate electricity to heat water for the home.

Turner sided the house with durable wood-look-alike fiber cement boards, which are made with recycled postindustrial waste materia l.

Low-flow water fixtures and energyefficient appliances were installed. The house's energy consumption is prOjected to be 70 to 80 percent less per square foot than for a comparable new home, Turner says. "The project showcases how energy-efficient design

and renewable energy systems come together in a home that is not only seriously environmentally friendly but also a beauti ful place to live,n says Turner.

Landscaping is also designed to conserve energy and water. Native plants are drought tolerant, disease resistant, and require little maintenance. To prevent storm water runoff, Belgard permeable paving stones were laid on the drive and walkways. The pavers are installed with spaces between them and over layers of porous materials to allow water to gradua lly soak into the soil.

While Turner and his team focused on construction, the interior designers searched Web sites and showrooms and talked to manufactu rers to track down sustainable furnishings.

"We wanted to take the sca re fac tor out of going green and show that green interiors can be just as nostalgic, comfortable, and warm as your grandmother's home," Barry says.

For many of the designers, using sustainable materials was a new

what goes around, comes around From the salvaged barn beams and ceiling trusses to the le rrazzo floor, virtually every material in the living room of this eco-friendly house has a green story. Even designer Barry Dixon's choice of motifs is a nod to green. "We played with the circle concept. referencing the circle of life and ideas such as reuse and recYCling," he says.

An east-facing wall of 8-foottall windows and French doors topped with transoms fills the room with sunlight so that less electric lighting is needed during sunny days.

Organic linen curtain panels are embellished on the hems with overlapping appliques of sheer and solid linen circles suggestive of bubbles-"paying homage to the lap pool just beyond the French doors," Barry explains.

Luxurious upholstered seating, includ ing a sofa, daybed, and fireside chairs designed by Barry, is made with sustainable wood frames, soy-based foam cushions, and eco-kind casein-based finishes. Proving good design can co-exist with eco-materials, Barry upholstered his furn iture

with susta inable fibers, such as natu ral linen, colton, bamboo, and even a fabric made of recycled plastic bottles for the banquette in the dining area.

The room is warmed by a cozy EcoSmart Fire, a ventless unit that burns denatured ethanol, a renewable and cleanburning fuel. Barry turned the fireplace into the room's focal point. add ing a classic limestone mantel su rround against a dramatic accent wall fabricated from riveted metal.

Opposite the fi replace is a huge mirror set into a salvaged

factory window. Nearby, an old cheese-packing crate serves as a drum table.

Every corner of the room is designed for function. "There are spaces to cu rl up by the fire and read a book or ta ke a nap with the dog," Barry says. "Irs a room for everyday living."

Amy Ditomasso's "rock-star chic" classification of her home is plenty accurate, bllt requires

an expbnation more elaborate than a three-word bbeL In the Lake Forest, Illinois, home she shares with

her husband . John. and two young children, you won't find posters with concert schedules pinned to the walls. There

is no prized b'uirar propped against a music stand, or a furniture plan that shows a special Spot for an electric keyboard.

What Amy is describing is a sophisticated design direction that dives into traditional elements with a polite touch and an ed!,'Y twist that leaves the expected behind.

"I love classic and elegant things," explains Amy. "But I didn't want our home to appear stodgy. It needed to be yO\lng and fresh with a design that wt"nt out of tbe box."

Enter interior designer Kara Mann. Her Web site, where Amy officially became a fan of Mann's work, exhibits a clear and specific look that is daring yet refined. Or is it refined yet

daring? Either way, Mann, along with design director Kristin Nelson, rocks the design boat with a gutsy approach that stylizes the traditional architecture of the house with a tension of dramatic, moody tones and glamorous, shimmery sur(lces.

"I always want a design that respects classic architecture," explains Mann. "But that friction that exists between classic and modern is what drives l1Ie."

The pakttt" of the Ditomassos' horne indulges in smoky shades that are neutral but a bit gritty. Take the entry and firstfloor hallway, for instance. Covered in laupe, Ihe walls could have easily become a dull moment of visual neutrality, used only as a thread to weave: the other rooms together. But Amy, who wanted everything designed and be:autiful, saw pott"ntial to wow upon entranct". Foyer walls dazzle: with a moire. stri ped wallpaper, and the hallway turns into a tunnel of glamour, with its arched ceiling finished in silver leaf and dotted with diminIItive, sparkling crystal chandeliers.

NYMPHENBURG PORCELAIN Amy Oitomasso collects many objects, but her first love is her collection of Nymphenburg German porcelain that is entirely handcrafted- from the raw materials used to produce it to the ornamentation that is hand-painted and customized for each client. Amy displays her collection throughout her entire home including the dining room, right. where figurines are perched in cage-like structures built especially for them. Amy's dinnerware pattern is from the Flowers of Life collect ion; itleatu res an amethyst-colored motif on white porcelain. "The pattern almost resembles ta ttoos," says Amy.

Although the f.1mily room is where the young Ditomasso f.lmily spends the majority of Its time, Amy's vision for the design remained sophisticated and growll-up. Centered on the stone fireplace, furllishings such as the SOf.1. a pair of armchai rs, and a barrd chair with clean lines reveal modern adaptations of traditioll l l design. A round glass table with a contemporary wood base adds ai ry rdief among the grouping of solid-colored upholstered pieces. " 1 walk past thl! room I t least 20 times a dlY," says Amy.

The lll:lster bedroom is a dreamy haven of ease and serenity, but its architecture offers some challenges.

A YOUNG CALIFORNIA FAMILY EXPECTED THE UNEXPECTED FROM DESIGNER RUTHIE SOMMERS ,




Some clients keep their designers on a short leash to avoid surprises. Then there's Lisa and

I3 rad WeinStOCk. These Los Angeles homeowners confidently snipped the tethers restraining interior

designer Ituthie Sommers and sent her racing into the realm of the unexpected. Their only mandate was a mild,

"Surprise us, please: · l3uilt in 1933, the Weinstocks' Spanish Colonial-style home

in Hancock Park had had only one owner- remarkable, given Southern California's propensity for change. " It had never been altered." says Lisa, a stay-at- home mom with a background in interior design . "It was terrific because the house was in its original state, but we wanted to bri ng it up to the present. We wanted to respect the character and age, but we also wanted a surprise here and there. Some unpredictability."

Not too much to ask of Sommers, who's known for her youthful palette, fresh touch with texture, and knack fo r the uniquely eclectic. "Trust was a big Cl ctor;' notes the designer, who insists that the remodel and decoration were a team effort with both Lis.l and Brad . l real estate and Internet executive, ac tively en6>:lged. "When you have a real collaboration, the results arc better," SOllllllers muses."Things I might have resisted

as a designer-like the two big swivel club chl irs and piano that Brad wanted for the living roorn-cnd up making a lllore livable home, which means a better design."

Livablhry, in Clct, was not negotiable. The Weinsrocks haw three slllall children and one big dog. Every room had to be approachable--f..lmily-friendly any time, all the time. Add to

that Lisa ·s fondness for French design and the standards of elegance implied by that, and the playing field became oppositional. 13m Sommers turned that tension to the design's advantage, elevating Cllllily function l notch 011 the filleness chart, while tamping down French style·s fussy self- importance.

Mainly, she had fUll. No roorn attests to this more than the breakfast area. 13ecause Lisa wanted this to be a 6mily hub, Sommers hit on a sweet conceit, designing a space that suggests an old-Clshioned ice crelm parlor. She convinced Lisa that the walls should be sb thered with thick mocha-and-white stripes. while the ceiling and lower wall belleath the chair rail would be painted pastel pink. Into this lively backdrop, she centered a simple Saarinen table and surrounded it with a rainbow of chairs, each upholstered in a different cupcake-frosting color. SOlllmers found the vintage chairs in Palm 13each. then painted thclll crisp cottagc white.




,

To give Lisa the elegance she appreciates and at the 5.11l1C

time deliver a design durable for children and pets, the designer headed to a clothing f.-!bric store. She purchased l)i yards of linen for each ch:m, with each fabric frOIll a different, intensely saturated dye lot. Then she treated the f.1brics with J matte laminate to give them the function orviny! 5.111S the stigm:! of plastic. Finally, she tufted the tops for a hint of grown-up glam . ., I love til is room:' praises Lisa." With th TCC slllall eh ildren. spills

happen. These chairs can be wiped dean, hut they still hl ve nice linen bene:lth the laminate."

Trying to maintain the original footprint as much as possible while still meeting their family's needs, the Weillstacks gently enlarged the kitchen by ntcnding it to replace a patio. Then they followed the same 11l1es upstai rs, capturing new square foot:lge from an old sleeping porch .

"The origin:ll kitchen was quite small:' reflects Lisa, "and we needed a space that would allow us to see the children w hen they play olltside."They achieved that goal and also improved the kitchen's architecture with a coffered ceiling and symmctriGlI arclil's. "To the right of the fridgl', WI' tore oul what had been a little phonl'-bootll alcove, arched the opening, and added bookshelves," she explains. The new arch mirrors the

original one on the refrigerator's other side, which leads to the original butler's pantry and on to the dining room .

An insouciant attitude is announced upon entering the home. An old bergere (Sommers calls It a "granny chair") morphed from fusty to saucy when re-covered in a bright pink flame stitch and trimmed out in pink welting with nai lhe:lds. "T he inspiration actllally came from a chair Lisa had admired in Tr<ldJtiol/<l1 Home;' SOlllmers acknowledges.

With:l predolllinamly cool and understated palette, forlllal symmetrical babnce, and a sm:lltering of amiques, the living room Ius the feel of a traditional tearoom, which W:lS Lisa 's desire. But like the other roOIllS, it packs a surprise. A collection of funky busts and child-art on the mantel, plus warm, rhythmIC al1lmal prints on the chairs make it snap. "It also has a big, comfortable SO(1 covered in :lll appro:lchable limen I (1bric, and a fairly informal coffee table," points out Sommers.

In comrast to the bold, primary colors of the f..l lllily room, Lisa's home office is soft and pretty, indulging the Francophile with a beautiful green~and-pink toile that covers the furniture and dresses the windows. "The room has its original paneling and stenciled ceiling, but the toile really brings it to life," Lisa says." lt also was my chance to have a more feillinme space." (Lisa was less insistent this go-round that every room be infused with French dt'Sign, having exhausted the style in their last home.)

"Lisa and I3rad are very cool, down-to-earth yet sophisticated people who wanted a fresh eye and innovation in their home without seeming too trendy," Sommers summarizes. She gave them what they wanted. Surprise! !I Interior designer: Ruthie Sommers

Dorothy said it best: There's 110 phce like home. Although, in John and Jill Kohler's case,

that f..11l1 iliar phrase refers not to their beloved home state of Kansas hut to their adopted state of

CalifOTI1IJ. After years on the road- includlllg "tmts in New York CIty, the H alllptons, London, :lI1d, yes, KansJs

the couple felt it was time to put JOWl! roots. Not in their native Midwest but in M anhattan Beach.

And who can blamt: them? With the beach JUSt blocks away, a quiet tre-e-lined strect that feels far removed from the hustleand bustle of nearby Los Angeles, and an idyllic cbpboard home (complete with a white "picket" fence), it's the perfect spot to senk in and raise their two children- Lily, 9, and Charlie, 7.

"Manhattan Deach is a lovely community," &1)'$ JilL "LA. is SO

close, ~t so f.1r away. It's nice to know that it's out there, but honestly, [ raft'ly leave M:mhattln Beach. It has a very small, f.lll1ilm feel. We walk to town, walk to the beach. Thm is unheard of in L.A. , and it's a big draw for us, having lived in big ciOt"> before:'

After many nomadic years shuttling from one city to the next, John and Jill knew exactly what they were looking for in a hOllle. And what they \wren ·t.

"Our first home was Craftsman style. I wanted this to be the antithesis of that;' says Jill. '"I've always wanted a hOl11e that

106 MARCH 2010 traej't'onalhome.com

was white and light. Having moved here from London, [ wanted the house to feel classic, but I also wanted the furnishings to feel less formal. More like a Hamptons-stylc beach house. Classic and sophisticated."

After finding a lot on a street coveted for its towering eucalyptus trees, John and Jill enlisted archneci Douglas Leach, builder Matt Morris, and interior designer Mark Williams to create their London-meets-Hamptons-meets-Southern California dream home. The couple's design direction for the interiors was simple yet stringent: Less is more.

"I asked Mark fo r a very muted palette---s.lnd and sea-but minus the predictabk beachy c1e1l1ents;'recal1sJi ll."No seashells, no cabana stripes, no nautical knickknacks. Just clean lines, relaxing and serene, comfortable yet striking."

On the main level, white woodwork and a muted palette prevail, creating a combination of traditional and contemporary. Midwestern no-nonsense meets California chic. Rooms spill into one anothe~ach opening onto the next through expansive doorways. Layer upon layer of sun-drenched spaces flow effortlessly, aided by the cominuity of wide-plank hickory/pecan floors, hints of subtle sea-glass blue, and crisp linen upholstery.

The palette is straightforward and then some. Williams swathed every room 011 the first floor in the same creamy shade

of white--allowing the architecture and artwork to find their voice without competing with bold color. Patterns and upholstery are kept subtle, with the only hints of beach-inspired hues introduced through the turquoise accessories and grayblue rub';; and textiles. Manteis and shelves are left uncluttered so that beloved items from the [lmily's travels get the attention they deserve. The furniture is architectural---and mostly custom-designed by Williams. A quiet elegance prevails.

" I tried to design furniture with clean lines and warm, traditional woods," says Williams." Each piece had to be simple in design, yet have a point of view. With such great architectural details throughout the house, when it came to the furniture, we stuck with the 'less is more' attitude."

No space heralds this attitude more strongly than the living room, WIth its sparse furnishings and restrained palette.There's one cozy seating area---a taIlored SO[l and a pair oflinen-clad chalrsplus two elegant sculptural t.1bh.'s and a smattering of accessori('S.

Through the dining room, with access to the backyard and kitchen. is the fuss-free f.lmily roOlll. the living roOIll'S slightly less form,ll tr.lternal twin---and the mOSt lived-in room in the house.

Anchoring the monochromatic space is a custom-desl£lled mahogany coffee table, its imricate angles rebelling against the f.lmily room's simplicity. Sandy tonL'S prevail, keeping the room in harmony with the rest of the house,especially the adjoin ing kitchen. "We live in the kitchen and f.1mily room," Jill notcs. "I love that I can sr;md at my kitchen counter and be a part of the action."

Doth Williams and Jill agree th:1t the roomy upholstered benches at the kitchen island arc f.wo rite elements. Ample enough for two and covered in a channing fabric that plays off the island's cool blue, they're the best seats in the house.

"They're unpredictable," Jill explains, ":md totally practical. They are easy to keep straight and always look nice and neat rather than cluttered. like bar stools."

Upstairs. in the master suite, the s.lnd-and-sea-inspired color scheme balances the starched London formality with a hit of 13ridgehampton beach nonchalance. A turned-wood four-poster and English painted camphorwood chest seem restrained under the lofty beadboard ceiling, offset by the room's soft palette.

The Kohlers' take on the fina l result? They may not be in Kansas anymore, hur they COllldn ·t feel more at home. They have the light-filled, welcoming house that they've ahvays dreamed of. A little bit classic, a little bit rolling stone. III Archi tect: Douglas Leach Interior designer: Mark J. Williams

Fresh Ollt of coll¢ge and ready to decor.tte her first apartlllcm on her entry-level earnHlgs

as a (1shioll writer, Lauren McGrath did what came naturally. She turned to her mother. Always reliable for wise: cOllnsel, mom Suzanne GrUJ

M cGrath brought lllQn: to the creative table than a mother's intuition. Slw's an mtenor designer who, between design gigs, s.1ndwiched in 10 years workm£ alongside decanting maven Martha Stewart in TV development. Always up for a staging, Suzanne rolled up her sleeves and steamed ahead at the first whiff of a d.:sign collaboration with her d;ltlghter. And in the easy give-and-take that characterizes this mother-daughter relationship, she happily shared the driver's seat with Lauren.

"We both knew that whcllcver 1 got lily first apartment, we would decomte it together." explains buren. "We actually started collecting thin!:,'S for it while] was still in college."

After gmduating from Bowdoin College with a degree in art history, Lauren moved back home to Rye, New York, for a year. When she landed a job with 'TeCII Vt~IIC. she found her own place in a Brooklyn Heights brownstone. " ] found this tiny apartment and instantly fell in love with its amazing deck. w hich is almost bigger than tho: apartment itself," she laughs.

FINDA NEW BFF

Tall ceilings and extra-long windows give the tiny two-room apartment good bones. But the minuscule square footage means evely inch has to work extra hard. wi th pieces like the living room's heir loom dresser updated with white paint and new hardware and storing both clothing and kitchen items, Pfeceding ~es, Suzanne Grua McGrath and daughter Lauren , . work as a team- not only decorating Lauren's post-college apartment in Brooklyn Heights, but contributing to their blog, goodbonesgreatpieces.com. Another "good bones" piece is the bold yellow lamp, which they found caked in dust at a flea market. .. 1t~ddS the perfect pop of color," Lauren says,

Each furnishmg had to meet at least one of three criteria to give it longevity beyond the first- neSt phase of Lauro:n's life. "First, it had to have some kind off.1111ily history: ' notl's Suzan ne. ·'Second. it had to be easily tmnsforrned o:ithcr in function

seat in classic ticking satisfies one of Suzanne's criteria- potentially, it can last a lifetime. "It's great right now as this small living room's main seat ing, but when lauren gets older and moves, it will have new life in a master bedroom at the foot of the bed, or in a sunroom or breakfast nook," Suzanne forecasts. Beyond the piece's versatile scale, what ensures its last ing attraction? "Comfort," Suzanne assu res. "It's ext ra -deep."

ADOPTA TWIN When money is the object, do what any savvy decorator on a restricted budget does: Hunt down a convincing look-alike at a fraction of the price. "The curtains look remarkably similar to a wonderful Victoria Hagan pattern we both loved: notes Lauren. Unconcerned with impressing her friends and family with labels, lauren was all about getting the look.

INSPIRE ENVY

MAKEA STATEMENT Lauren modernized her greatgrandparents' dresser with fresh while paint and new hardware she found in a sale basket at Anthropologie. "Suddenly it was this great statement piece: observes Suzanne. like everything else in the apartment, the dresser is hardworking. The top three drawers store Lauren's clothing, while lower drawers contain a mishmash of everything from large-scale kitchen platters to linens.

Neither Lauren nor her mom is out to incite envy, but Lauren does confess to loving it when her friends flip for her old canesided chair-one of a pair found on Craigslist for $25, total. Lauren pa inted the "really ugly pink" chair black, upholstered it in inexpensive fabr ic, and trimmed it with scraps of brown velvet. "The brown velvet piping gives it a li ttle luxe look: she says. " It's probably the most inexpensive thing here, but all my friends say, 'Oh my gosh. Where did you get this chair?"




"

GETTHE LOOK An antique Murano mirror wasn't a realistic option for the new college grad. Instead, the mom-daughler team found the next best thing-a new Venetian-style mirror with slight damage that resulted in a "great deal" from Anlhropologie.

Mounted on the wall above the desk, it completes the illusion-and real-life function--of the desk as a vanity. "We just cobbled together pieces for a great look," Suzanne explains, noting that the Victorian brush-and-mirror dresser set and mail-order alabaster lamp lend yet

more charm to the ensemble.




REINVENT

DIY-THEN DISPLAY "Lauren assembled the IKEA bookshelf herself," brags her mom. Because the while American IXlttery's not precious, Lauren took liberties, guilt-free. uShe spray-painted a couple of pieces to look like mercury glass, H notes Suzanne. "There are some incredible spray paints out there."

enough to move from room to room ,0 it could be used in other residences o\'cr Lauren's lifetime." Lauren adds, "We're not

interested in chasing the latest trend. We're all about irwcsting wisely in classic pieces that ! Cln, potentially, own forever."

Take the new smal! love seat in tht: living roOIll. which call

affordable fmds from I KEA. Lauren assembled the bookshelws herself. "She is incredibly capable and dOL'SIl't need a lot;' boasts

her mom. "She has an amazing f.1shion sense, but she liV\:"S and

travels light. My dauglner packs a suitc:..se like no one [ know."

On the bookshelves above the radiator in the breakf."lSt area is

the white ceramic pottery collected by both mother and daughter. "There may be a McCoy or a piece of ironstone in there, but

mainly our collections include nothing of any real value," S.lyS

Suzanne. "T he v:..lue is in the overall look. Fo r us, pieces don't

have to be perfect to be beautiful. We are not purist collectors."

One f.lll1ily pleCe---<ln AmericlI1 d resser handed down from Lauren's great-grandparents-is the apartment's focal point.

"They gave it to me when I married," Suzanne S.lYS, "and I kept

it for Lauren all these years because it was such a great piece."

"The aparnnem is so small, we had to choose furnishillj:,'"S very carefully and make sure they were things [ loved," explams

Lauren. "Our whole thing is about choosing f.1Vo r ite pieces we know we can move with us from home to home: '

The "our whole thing" is the ph ilosophy behind thei r popu

lar rnother/dl ughter blog, goodbonesgreatpieces.com. " It's all

about deSlb'11 and f.lshion and the joy ofliving with both," notes Suzanne. Adds laUten: " It's cross-gener.ltional. My mom's friends

are interested in learning what [ think is fashionable and cool,

and my friends are inten:sted in my mother 's expertise on what

furniture will last and w hat is valuable."

lauren's absolute favorite furnishing is an old desk·turned· vanity that Suzanne found cast out on a Brooklyn street 20 years ago. She appropriated it as a sma ll corner writing table for her living room, then passed it on to lauren for re invention as a vanity. "Paired with an unusual vintage lucite stool, it's rejuvenated," says Suzanne.

Neither one had a doubt about the small Swed

ish occasional tables they spotted at a consignment

store in Connecticllt. Paired, the petite piecL'S are the perfect coffee table for the living room 's love scat. "I

love their S\verlish design,minianlre scale,pn:tty gray

paint, and intricate det:J.illllg;' wuren S.l YS. "When I

move, they call work as side tables for a low bed: '

Lauten, no doubt, was influenced by her

mother. But sometimes Suzanne fears she may have succeeded too weU, "I' m amazed at Lauren's

tenacity. W hen we're blogging together, I'll think it's fine, but she'l1 s.l y,'No, tha t 's not good enough:

" It's probably not worth anything, but it has good bones."

JUST PAINT IT Recycled family furnishings include a pair of old Hitchcock chairs "that were black and so old-fashioned nobody in the family wanted them," recal ls Suzanne. She claimed them from her parents' Cape Cod home for lauren, who refreshed them with white paint.

At E ING. INhen It comes to fil1eSSmg an interior with those accesSOfies that exude personality, Jennifer Flanders knows when something is missing-and when enough is enough. "Much of the process is instlncllve," she says. "The f¥! knows when everything is visually complete and balanced.· The designer offers the following tips for a successfully accessorized space. • Divide and conquer Spread objects such as books, vases, and the like on a large table. Make one pile of "must-haves" and another that includes pieces you are willing to eliminate, • Accept change Keep an open mind when it comes to repurposing a piece or positioning it in an alternate room. After pieces are placed, you'll know where you need to fill in. • Take advantage of bookcases Don't limit bookshelves to books only. This is a great place for an ensemble of pieces-books. family photos, and other objects-that aren't special enough to stand on their own. • Create art tension If your interiors lean toward traditional and classic, cootemporary artwork keeps the mood fresh and youthful.

The proximity of the livmg and dining rooms led to a scheme th:1{ allows e3Ch space to decontively support the other. as neighbors often do. Pieces from the couple's former residence guided much of the deconting strategy, inspiring Flanders to repurpose many of their thinh"S and giving their llew quarters a feeling that IS entirely different.

The old living room rug has now found a home in the dining room; Fbnders pulled different colors from it to establish the rust-and-taupe palette. Furnishings in the dining room, except for the new dining chairs, are also among those from their old home.

The apartment's living room shows an even greater departure from their previous home. The selection of a new Tibetan rug with an oversized medallion pattern in green and peach determined the wall treatment; it features a horizontal strie pattern that evokes the feel of raw silk and is executed in three congruous tones of apricot. "Every \V3ll in the apartment is either papered or decontively painted." expbins Flanders of one of her design hallmarks.

Instead of using the fireplace as the anchor around which the furniture wO\lld cemer. Flanders created two seating arrangements at opposite ends of the room. [n a large living room . this placement trick IS essemial. she expbins, so people do not to have to navigate around furnishings . In front of the

wmdow. a sofa the couple already owned was re-covered in a more forlllal f.1bric for its current iteration. It 's now upholstered in a rust-colored linen vclvet that makes a comfortable spot for the f.1111ily w hen they watch the television, which tucks away in a painted white built-in cabinet. Side tables and matching tufted chairs complete the seating area. A smaller version of the SO(l is used ill the arnngement at the opposite end of the room. Matching chairs, regally upholstered in green-and-ivory cut velvet with their wooden frames finished in gold leaf, complete the fireside grouping.

One of the primary f.1.Ctors that sold Robyn on the apartmellt was the ki tchen, where the f.111l11y spends most of its time. Generous in size, the space was left a clean neutral in color and style, with marble countertops in sea-foam gn:en, white, and brown providing the slightest hint of color. "We live in our
