This large, wood-paneled living room is both cozy and elegant. Its generous dimensions create several seating areas that are anchored by a jewel-toned, two-sided sofa in velvet. The addition of Vladimir Kagan chairs, a coffee table by Mastercraft, among other high-end vintage furniture and decor, imbue the space with sophisticated comfort.

What little girl wouldn’t love to spend time in this space?

The designer thought through so many details when designing this small children’s bathroom: the practical nature of the tiled wall behind the faucet, the high-gloss wall panel finish that’s easy to clean, the darling cast-iron sink, while new, pays homage to those originally found in this 1900s Colonial house.
