{A stunning country home known as Six Swans, designed by Steven Gambrel}
{A nicely arranged vignette. The distorted reflection on the convex mirror turns the reflection into art.}
{Love how the transom window is painted a different colour. It calls attention to the architectural detail in the hallway.}
{A handsome collection of furniture is grouped around a roaring fireplace. Also worthy of note is the ceiling detail with the intricate trellis moldings.}
{I love the contrast between the weight and monolithic quality of the vanity with the slender mirror.}
[I think those chairs are an odd and quirky choice, but the rush seating material is perfect. These pictures have a perfectly Vermeer-like quality to them because of the use of natural lighting; the effect is as quiet and elegant as the Dutch master’s paintings. I love the simple mullions and the unique light fixture, with the sturdy-looking table.}
{Fresh flowers, a familiar wicker basket, and a banquette that follows the curve of the window seat makes this an inviting space to have tea in the morning.}
{I may have posted this before on my blog… I just love the warmth that the cabinet brings to an otherwise cool space.}
{Perfectly rustic & utilitarian, the lights, metal hood, & even the old-fashioned ice-box hinges add to the authenticity of this country kitchen.}
{Compare this living room with the other one, and you get a perfect formal vs. informal situation. This has a simpler fireplace with simpler pieces of furniture surrounding it.}
{Love the shape of that mirror with the airiness/legginess of this vanity.}
{I believe the thickness of the beams in the ceiling are a bit too heavy in the master bedroom.}
{Love the window-pane detail atop the stairs.}
{A barrel vaulted ceiling recalls the shapes in the collection of shadowboxes containing model ships in this hallway.}
