I was honored to participate in this years Bucks County Designer House. I worked along with my friends, Jayne Rosen of JR Design Coordinates, and Sally Dunn and Noreen Dunn Gottfried of Dunn Design Partners, to decorate "the gathering room". The house is absolutely beautiful and the grounds are amazing.
The gathering room is a large addition to the original stone farmhouse. It has a spectacular wall of windows overlooking the grounds and pond. We chose a large scale floral fabric from Thibaut for the draperies in order to echo the beautiful view outside. The spiced pumpkin walls provide a warm contrast to all of the green outside, The greens, golds, yellows and rusts in the fabrics reflect the colors in the gardens. The tailored, box pleated panels, and coordinating roman shades, harmonize well with the clean architectural of the room.
Our design strategy was to create a room that would function well for today's more casual lifestyle. The room has a cozy seating area for conversation or television viewing. On the other side of the room, a large round table serves as a game table, or as a spot for casual dining. A custom wall unit, built by the artisans at Superior Woodcraft, houses a microwave, beverage coolers, and cabinets for serving pieces.
The Gathering Room is a fun and functional space where the whole family can truly live.
