Quiet Reflection
In this stately New Jersey home, the study’s original design didn’t provide much inspiration for quiet reflection, or any real reason to linger, except for the warmth of the fire. To create a sense of visual warmth, we opted to forgo the paneled library look in favor of a lighter palette of golds, grays, and camels.
Much as we love a book-filled library, the family had a greater need for closed storage, which we achieved by the creation of custom, tooled-leather cabinet doors. Smart sconces and a clean-lined sunburst mirror provide light and punch, while a gorgeous antique partner’s desk and comfortable fire-side seating blend for the perfect mix of work and relaxation.
