THE PRIMARY SUITE AND BATH

This lavish PRIMARY SUITE was inspired by a honeymoon trip to a private game reserve at the Kruger National Park in South Africa. Its sumptuous style harmonizes heritage with new-traditional luxury living. Charactered pieces and curated accessories play off of crisp, clean-lined furnishings. Grooved lilac marble, fluted mahogany cabinets, French brass finishes and mischievous monkeys are just a few playful elements that punctuate the palette of mossy greens, pale taupes and African purples.

This innovative design honors the home’s colonial architecture and modernizes the functionality through versatile use of space. It bolsters the belief that bedrooms should be designed as an oasis. THE PRIMARY SUITE re-imagines such a place as whimsical, sophisticated, livable and oh so luxe.

With furnishings and accessories in an eclectic mix of global bohemian style and Art Deco, THE TERRACE is transformed into an island jazz retreat. Inspired by Fitzgerald’s description of Daisy Buchanan’s porch in The Great Gatsby, it re-imagines the “bright with the bought luxury of star-shine” combining Deco opulence with Caribbean Island flare. Fabrics showcase handblocked botanicals and Deco geometrics in a palette of warm grey, white, and island sage. Furnishings in wood and cane mix warm tones with accents in marble and gold. Island influenced lighting in gilded finishes floats above a tablescape and two lounge areas. Finally, a variety of tropical foliage and pampas grasses sprinkle the perimeter creating a verdant backdrop.

Tahitian motifs adorn the ceiling, beckoning us into THE ARTIST’S WUNDERKAMMER, a ‘room of wonder’ honoring the creative passions of the original owner of this year’s Showcase House, Ruth Stewart, and her 1935 nautical voyages through Hawaii and Asia.

Imbued with wood panels and hand-painted wallpaper, the space teems with plants, vases, maps, art and musical instruments. Half-finished poems lay forgotten beneath the glow of a 1930s chandelier. At center, a custom-made artist’s work table echoes the vibrant shape of a dragonfly, a totem of free expression. Bespoke wood cabinets display our traveler’s eclectic collection of souvenirs and natural curiosities. All furniture has been handmade from African sustainable mahogany, built custom for this Showcase House in our restoration design workshop.
