The niches, flanking the
fireplace, were originally
spec’d by the architect to
be bookcases.  We
decided to turn them into
intimate little
conversation spots.
Custom banquets were
designed and built to fit
perfectly inside the
niches.  The walls were
papered in a stripe and
the ceilings in a trompe l’
oeil coffered ceiling
wallpaper.  Each space
received a pair of crystal
sconces, a crystal
chandelier and an over-
scaled gilded mirror, and
then, secluded with
woven sheer portiere’s.
