Timeless Colors

Strong or subtle, these shades have one thing

in commonyoull never get tired of them.

triAnon rl4037
rALPH LAUrEn PAInT

This is like that feeting blush of

pink in the sky before the sun
sets. Its not what instantly
comes to mind for a library, but I
wanted to counter the rooms
inherent masculinity. Pink is
warm and atmospheric, and it
makes dark antique furniture
look ravishingly beautiful. Its not
an assertive color. Its demure,
which gives it longevity.

Antique White 14-31

PrATT & LAmBErT

Use this if you have to paint

a room quickly and dont
know what to do. Its a
home-run colora dirty
celadon that has been in
the line forever. My mother,
who was also a decorator,
loved it. It works for any
environmentmodern or
traditional, no problem
and with any colorblue,
red, yellow, tangerine.
AthAlie Derse

CAribbeAn Azure
2059-20
BEnjAmIn mOOrE

If you swept this color up

from the deep sea into your
favorite room, youd join the
rest of the world, who have
used it in Chinese porcelain,
Dutch delfware, and Portuguese tiles. I just came
back from Lisbons famous
tile museum, and on the
same trip, I saw a kitchen in
Paris painted this color. Try
it with glossy black trim and
a pearl-gray ceiling.

White sMoke 26-2

PrATT & LAmBErT

This steel gray, with a hint

of blue, has a kind of
strength and calm that feels
very architectural, almost as
if it were a material integral
to the room rather than a
paint color. When youre
surrounded by it, the efect
is like an updated version
of a traditional paneled
roombut a lot less expensive. I would do it in high
gloss so it glistens.

Its one of my all-time

favorite colors, a warm
gray that makes a room
inviting yet still clean and
crisp. It works with almost
any scheme, but I like to
use it with either gem
tones or neutrals, such as
creams, browns, and dark
grays. I painted my own
living room this color and
afer all this time I still love
it, which means a lot!

Theres something heavenly about this pale blue.

You see it in Renaissance
paintings or an earlymorning sky. It would look
equally great in a contemporary setting with nubby
Belgian linen, or in a more
formal room with sparkling
crystal sconces. Put a
true white next to it and
youll see how wonderful
and subtle it really is.

This classic hunter green feels like a color Ive

known my entire lifein the leaves of a magnolia
tree, a sprig of fresh-cut basil, or my favorite
fannel shirt in the second grade. In a Minnesota
farmhouse kitchen, it has a comforting familiarity that evokes a sense of home. Its a color with
soul, and that never goes out of style.

SHErwIn-wILLIAmS

I tend to prefer more complex, layered tones, and this

fts the bill. Lavender is the
only color thats both warm
and cool, and this particular shade is like quicksilver.
It changes and evolves all
day long. Its cheery in the
morning, restful and calm
in the afernoon, and sexy
in the evenings low light.

Red lipstick, red dresses,

red wallsfabulous! Red
makes you feel alive. It instills
confdence. And theres
another reason people really
like to sit in red rooms
theyre cozy. If youre afraid
to do the whole thing, just
start with one wall. Even one
shot of red will have tremendous impact.

This taupe is efortlessly

chic. It reminds me of a
warm stone color, something youd see on the walls
at the Louvre. Mixed with
crisp Parisian black and
ivory, its truly a timeless
combination. It would look
especially stunning with
gold or brass accents.

This is a rich, dramatic, yet

relaxed dark chocolate that
has a ton of depth. Many
people are concerned
about using dark colors on
walls, but I fnd that they
create such warmth in a
roomsomehow you feel
enveloped in the best way.

Oliver M. Furth

MarCy MastersOn

Im not one for big pops of

paint color, aside from the
occasional bright front door.
I prefer something more
soothing, like this nice, true
gray. Not too dark and not
too light, its classic, clean,
and beautiful. It works
with just about anything
green, blue, yellowand
would look great in any room
of the house.

1.In a stone-foored entry, Alex Papachristidis
deployed a sumptuous paneled covering with rich
fringe to sofen up the space. 2.Alessandra
Branca layered cloths on a bedside table for a crisp

console, Phoebe Howard used a

Serving Up History
Actor Bryan Batt, of Mad Men fame,
celebrates his native New Orleans with
a series of exquisite trays.
When Bryan Batt and his partner opened their beloved boutique,
Hazelnut, on New Orleanss Magazine Street in 2002, it instantly
became a de rigueur stop for shoppers and decorators looking to capture the Crescent Citys inimitable style. Among the wares are an
ever-expanding collection of unique trays, edged in gold leaf and
decoupaged with historic images, which Batt designs exclusively for

the shop. The Tableau tray (above right) is based on a 19th-century

engraving of a Carnival ball Batt bought when he was in seventh
grade (My frst antique, he says). He unearthed the print for Map of
New Orleans (lef) at a vintage shop in the French Quarter. The trays,
all numbered, are food-safe, but theyre also pretty enough to simply
hang on a wall. From $90 each. hazelnutneworleans.com

Meg Braff
on wallpaper

Wallpaper is a great solution to lots

of challenges, says decorator Meg
Braf. Its one of the most useful
tools we designers have in our bag of
tricks. It can bring warmth and
detail to an otherwise drab room and
transform a cavernous space into an
intimate retreat. Its an extra decorative layer. And you dont need to paper
an entire room or limit yourself to
just walls. Put it on the ceiling or
behind the shelves of a bookcase for
an unexpected moment.

In a bedroom with very high

ceilings, a wallpaper with a
Philip Graf pattern in a large
vertical repeat helps
tame the fairly vast space.
Im in love with midcentury patterns,
and I have been reviving designs from the
archives of the Philip Graf wallpaper
company. The small scale of Armenoville
Sidewall [top] makes it incredibly versatile.
Blenheim is a modern take on damask.
Patterned
wallpaper
can even out
awkward
angles in a
room and
make a quirky
space feel
more cohesive.

Could you have a

type of Chronic
Dry Eye disease?
If you use artifcial tears often, ask
your eye doctor to screen you for
Chronic Dry Eye caused by reduced
tear production due to infammation.

For Chronic Dry Eye disease caused

by reduced tear production due to
infammation, you can use artifcial tears
for temporary relief, but they cannot help
you make more of your own tears. Only
continued use of RESTASIS (Cyclosporine
Ophthalmic Emulsion) 0.05% twice a day,
every day, can help you make your own
tears. Individual results may vary.
Approved Use
RESTASIS Ophthalmic Emulsion helps
increase your eyes natural ability to
produce tears, which may be reduced
by infammation due to Chronic Dry Eye.
RESTASIS did not increase tear production
in patients using anti-infammatory eye
drops or tear duct plugs.
Important Safety Information
Do not use RESTASIS Ophthalmic
Emulsion if you are allergic to any of
the ingredients. To help avoid eye injury

and contamination, do not touch the

vial tip to your eye or other surfaces.
RESTASIS should not be used while
wearing contact lenses. If contact lenses
are worn, they should be removed
prior to use of RESTASIS and may be
reinserted after 15 minutes.
The most common side effect is a
temporary burning sensation. Other side
effects include eye redness, discharge,
watery eyes, eye pain, foreign body
sensation, itching, stinging, and
blurred vision.
You are encouraged to report negative
side effects of prescription drugs to the
FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch,
or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Summary of the full Product Information.

RESTASIS (Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion) 0.05%

BRIEF SUMMARYPLEASE SEE THE RESTASIS PACKAGE INSERT FOR
FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion is indicated to increase tear production in patients whose
tear production is presumed to be suppressed due to ocular infammation associated with
keratoconjunctivitis sicca. Increased tear production was not seen in patients currently taking topical
anti-infammatory drugs or using punctal plugs.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
RESTASIS is contraindicated in patients with known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the
ingredients in the formulation.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Potential for Eye Injury and Contamination
To avoid the potential for eye injury and contamination, be careful not to touch the vial tip to your eye
or other surfaces.
Use with Contact Lenses
RESTASIS should not be administered while wearing contact lenses. Patients with decreased
tear production typically should not wear contact lenses. If contact lenses are worn, they should be
removed prior to the administration of the emulsion. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes following
administration of RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates
observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of
another drug and may not refect the rates observed in practice.
In clinical trials, the most common adverse reaction following the use of RESTASIS was ocular
burning (17%).
Other reactions reported in 1% to 5% of patients included conjunctival hyperemia, discharge,
epiphora, eye pain, foreign body sensation, pruritus, stinging, and visual disturbance (most
often blurring).
Post-marketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identifed during post approval use of RESTASIS. Because
these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to
reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Reported reactions have included: hypersensitivity (including eye swelling, urticaria, rare cases
of severe angioedema, face swelling, tongue swelling, pharyngeal edema, and dyspnea); and
superfcial injury of the eye (from the vial tip touching the eye during administration).
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy
Teratogenic Effects: Pregnancy Category C
Adverse effects were seen in reproduction studies in rats and rabbits only at dose levels toxic
to dams. At toxic doses (rats at 30 mg/kg/day and rabbits at 100 mg/kg/day), cyclosporine oral
solution, USP, was embryo- and fetotoxic as indicated by increased pre- and postnatal mortality and
reduced fetal weight together with related skeletal retardations. These doses are 5,000 and 32,000
times greater (normalized to body surface area), respectively, than the daily human dose of one drop
(approximately 28 mcL) of 0.05% RESTASIS twice daily into each eye of a 60 kg person (0.001
mg/kg/day), assuming that the entire dose is absorbed. No evidence of embryofetal toxicity was
observed in rats or rabbits receiving cyclosporine at oral doses up to 17 mg/kg/day or 30 mg/kg/day,
respectively, during organogenesis. These doses in rats and rabbits are approximately 3,000 and
10,000 times greater (normalized to body surface area), respectively, than the daily human dose.
Offspring of rats receiving a 45 mg/kg/day oral dose of cyclosporine from Day 15 of pregnancy until
Day 21 postpartum, a maternally toxic level, exhibited an increase in postnatal mortality; this dose is
7,000 times greater than the daily human topical dose (0.001 mg/kg/day) normalized to body surface
area assuming that the entire dose is absorbed. No adverse events were observed at oral doses up
to 15 mg/kg/day (2,000 times greater than the daily human dose).
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of RESTASIS in pregnant women. RESTASIS
should be administered to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

Nursing Mothers
Cyclosporine is known to be excreted in human milk following systemic administration, but excretion
in human milk after topical treatment has not been investigated. Although blood concentrations are
undetectable after topical administration of RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion, caution should be
exercised when RESTASIS is administered to a nursing woman.
Pediatric Use
The safety and effcacy of RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion have not been established in pediatric
patients below the age of 16.
Geriatric Use
No overall difference in safety or effectiveness has been observed between elderly and
younger patients.
NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenesis: Systemic carcinogenicity studies were carried out in male and female mice and
rats. In the 78-week oral (diet) mouse study, at doses of 1, 4, and 16 mg/kg/day, evidence of a
statistically signifcant trend was found for lymphocytic lymphomas in females, and the incidence of
hepatocellular carcinomas in mid-dose males signifcantly exceeded the control value.
In the 24-month oral (diet) rat study, conducted at 0.5, 2, and 8 mg/kg/day, pancreatic islet
cell adenomas signifcantly exceeded the control rate in the low dose level. The hepatocellular
carcinomas and pancreatic islet cell adenomas were not dose related. The low doses in mice and
rats are approximately 80 times greater (normalized to body surface area) than the daily human
dose of one drop (approximately 28 mcL) of 0.05% RESTASIS twice daily into each eye of a 60 kg
person (0.001 mg/kg/day), assuming that the entire dose is absorbed.
Mutagenesis: Cyclosporine has not been found to be mutagenic/genotoxic in the Ames Test, the V79HGPRT Test, the micronucleus test in mice and Chinese hamsters, the chromosome-aberration tests
in Chinese hamster bone-marrow, the mouse dominant lethal assay, and the DNA-repair test in sperm
from treated mice. A study analyzing sister chromatid exchange (SCE) induction by cyclosporine using
human lymphocytes in vitro gave indication of a positive effect (i.e., induction of SCE).
Impairment of Fertility: No impairment in fertility was demonstrated in studies in male and female rats
receiving oral doses of cyclosporine up to 15 mg/kg/day (approximately 2,000 times the human daily
dose of 0.001 mg/kg/day normalized to body surface area) for 9 weeks (male) and 2 weeks (female)
prior to mating.
PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION
Handling the Container
Advise patients to not allow the tip of the vial to touch the eye or any surface, as this may
contaminate the emulsion. To avoid the potential for injury to the eye, advise patients to not touch the
vial tip to their eye.
Use with Contact Lenses
RESTASIS should not be administered while wearing contact lenses. Patients with decreased tear
production typically should not wear contact lenses. Advise patients that if contact lenses are worn,
they should be removed prior to the administration of the emulsion. Lenses may be reinserted 15
minutes following administration of RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion.
Administration
Advise patients that the emulsion from one individual single-use vial is to be used immediately after
opening for administration to one or both eyes, and the remaining contents should be discarded
immediately after administration.

you sleep. Create a stylish and functional

space thats a haven any time of day!
1. unify windows of varying HEigHts
Some rooms with vaulted ceilings have windows that difer
dramatically in size on the same wall, which can make hanging
window treatments tricky. But its OK to hang each drape at
a diferent height! Give them a cohesive look by doing a bold
color-blocked border of the same width across all the bottoms.
2. CrEatE a sEnsE of airinEss
If the frame of a window awkwardly abuts an adjacent wall, you
dont have to hang a panel in that corner. Not only can that feel
crowded, youll lose natural light and part of the view. And when a
panel is pulled open, let it stack over the window trim instead of
the actual glass. This gives the illusion that your windows are
larger than they are, as if theres more window behind the fabric.

A small sofa at the foot of your bed is great if your kids love to pile

| FebRuaRy 2015

W H e t H e r i t s t H e s oB e r i n g winter

weather, which leads us to cozy up indoors,

or simply the beginning of a new year, now is a
great timeperhaps the perfect timeto take
a clear-eyed, critical look at how youre living in
the quarters you call home. as americans, we
inherently believe in the power of a fresh start;
a good fashion or beauty makeover can work
wonders when the mood strikes. Why, then, are
so many people making do with less than their
best when it comes to their home? the feel of
a fabric, the glow of a lamp, an inviting chair,
myriad colors and patternsthe range of
resources for dressing up houses is greater and
more accessible than ever, at every price point.
While interior decorating may not seem like the
most pressing matter at hand, home is where so
much of life is lived. its where we wake up to face
the world, where all sorts of dramas unfold, and
where we return at the end of the day seeking rest
and renewal. for 118 years, House Beautiful has
believed that the way the inside of a house looks
matters, in every aspect of life, because there is
undeniable joy in the experience of a beautiful
room. the good news for 2015 is that its never too
lateor too earlyto start feathering your nest.

Youre fearless. such

bold wallpaperand not
onlY on the walls but
also the ceilings!

Do you know
why this is such a
good room?
Because its filled
with things the
homeowners love.
Thats what gives
a room soul.

PhiliP Gorrivan: I love color. I love pattern.

And ceilings represent a lot of unused
space in a house. When you put wallpaper
up there, it draws your eye and you get
the full impact of the pattern, without art
or mirrors or anything else on top. People
are afraid it will make the ceiling feel lower,
but I think it accentuates the height.
Wallpaper also tells a story.
Exactly, and narrative is really important
to me. I believe that rooms should tell a
visual story, and wallpaper is one layer,
along with furniture and art. The house
is a 1920s Colonial, and the client was very
open to trying new things to freshen it up.
She collects Scandinavian furniture and
already had those creamy white Gustavian
chairs in the dining room. I found that
Fornasetti leaf paper and had this vision
of dining in a snowy forestand the antler
chandelier just adds to the atmosphere.
how does it feel to be in that bedroom
papered in gray clouds?
As if a storm is coming and the clouds are
rushing past. Thats got to be my favorite
wallpaper in the house. Its very dramatic,
with a lot of motion, and you have to have
it on the ceiling to get the full efect.
all the shades of gray remind me of grisaille.
Youre right. Its like a contemporary version of one of those hand-painted grisaille

murals in a French chteau. This is the

older sons room. Hes away at school, so it
also serves as the guest room.
its magicalare you indoors or out?
A lot of the papers have that indoor-outdoor
quality, to bring you closer to nature
and remind you that youre in the country.
Why did you paint the living room brown?
Because it feels incredibly cozy on a snowy
day with the freplace blazing. I knew
this would be a winter room, because most
of their entertaining is done outdoors
during the summer. The brown is very rich
and then the trim is all white, so you get
the power of contrast.
The sofa adds more contrast, covered in that
green-and-white print.
Thats a Josef Frank fabric. I love it because
its bright and verdant. Its the ultimate
country fabric. Two of the throw pillows
are covered in another Josef Frank fabric.
It doesnt bother me to see two strong patterns togetherthey almost neutralize
each other. Then you have that whole wall
of pictures above.
Where did you start, in hanging that?
With those three pieces in the middle.
Then we worked out from there. A lot of
switching went on. We spent the better
part of a day with it all spread out on the
foor, like a puzzle.
its a very interesting assortmentjust like
the furniture in this room.
The furniture was another puzzletaking
the things she owned and ftting them into
this house. Do you know why this is such a
good room? Because its flled with things
the homeowners love and have collected
over the years. The African masks were
bought on their travels. The grandfather
clock is English and belonged to her greatgrandfather. Thats what gives a room soul,
and its hard to create that from scratch.
is there any rhyme or reason to the mix?
I suppose you could say it all balances out.
From the 18th-century Danish chair to the
Biedermeier sofa to the Mies van der Rohe
daybed, youre spanning hundreds of years
of decorative arts. I ofen like to put a
modern piece next to an antique, because
the contrast makes both stand out.
Every room in this house is so diferent.
I like having options. A house can tell many
stories. Its nice to go from one room to the
next and have a diferent experience. Every
room is a destination, and if you get tired of
one, just go into another!

New York decorator RichaRd Keith Langham traNsforms

a humdrum high-rise apartmeNt iN miami iNto a gleamiNg, airY
retreat with a focus oN its eNdless oceaN views.
59

Does this ultrasleek

apartment mark the
beginning of a new
chapter in your
Decorating career?
RichaRd Keith Langham: Afer 30 years as a
traditionalist, I did fnd it exciting to break
out and do something fresh and diferent.
Its such a departure from the more layered,
complicated rooms I usually put together.
Designing a mod, hip, spare interior really
ignited my creativityso maybe I can juggle both from now on!
in one snazzy space, youve encapsulated
the spirit of miami Beach.
It does speak to the energy and beat here,
bringing together the citys glitzy, groovy
vibe. I wouldnt have done anything like
this anywhere else, but its what was called
for. The apartment is in the Setai, a contemporary glass tower in the heart of South
Beach, and white, airy, and streamlined
is what my clients, Blaine Trump and Steve
Simon, wanted.
there are so many glossy surfacesthe
walls, foor, mirrors, and metal.
Yes, theyre very much of-the-moment
Miami. They refect the dazzling light, and
the mirrors also refect the view. The lacquered walls and ceiling and the porcelain
foor tiles echo the white sand on the beach
and impart simplicity to that big, open
living space. Furnishings are spare, which
further emphasizes a lightness. This
sparkling white background fatters
everything we put in the room. Each piece
becomes a sculptural presence. And everything just seems to foat in spacethe
shell is like a white cloud. It has an ethereal quality thats anchored by sporadic
splashes of color. A lot of people gasp when
they step through the front door.
What was your reaction the frst time you
stepped through?
Im sure I gasped too, but for a diferent
reason! And when Blaine and Steve frst
looked at the space, they thought, This will
never work, lets not even bother.
Why the reversal?
Mostly because of the view. Its astonishing. The apartment wraps around a corner on a high fooryou see the clear aqua
ocean for miles, and you see the Miami
skyline, which is magical at night. Blaine
called and asked me to come down and take

60

a look. She said, Now dont get nervous, but

I have to warn youits a train wreck.
Really? that bad?
The atmosphere was sort of weighty,
almost brooding. The whole place was a muddle of dirty, earthy colorsdark browns,
taupe, dull beigeand a jumble of stuf,
like heavy carved-teak furniture, potted
trees, and big Buddha heads. All the foors
were teak, and there were two teak-clad
columns cutting up the living room. There
was a border of black river rocks around
the perimeter, a dropped ceiling with canister lights, and a bedroom and bath that
interrupted the panoramic vista.
this couldnt be a more dramatic about-face.
It was a sweeping gut job. We took down
walls, eliminating that bedroom and bath
to open up the choppy foor plan and the
view, and enlarged the master bedroom.
We heightened the ceilings for more airiness and added moldings that related to
Art Deco style. The teak fooring was
replaced with acres of porcelain tile. The
tiles are huge, three feet square, so you
dont have many grout linesyou get a
beautiful, shiny expanse of white that looks
like marble. That alone became a whole new
foundation for creating these sleek, simple rooms. Except for one discreet white cotton rug to anchor the main seating area, we
lef the foor bare, because we wanted as
much of that refective surface as we could
get, and also because the tile is so cool underfoot. And I should add that white, in its way,
has a cooling efect too. Its a good color
for hot, sunny Miami and especially for this
apartment, with all the light pouring in.
But then you jazzed it up with these vibrant
color splashes.
Theyre luscious tropical colors that are
indigenous to South Floridaturquoise,
aqua, coral, kiwi green. Plus, they relate
to these divine artworks by Howard Hodgkin, Anish Kapoor, and Damien Hirst. We
went sofer in the master bedroom, using
gray blues that are like the sky on a misty
day. Its very dreamy and restful.
the apartment that would never work
worked afer all.
Theres a happy, leave-your-cares-behind
mood about it that embraces the vitality and easygoing attitude of Miami. Its
glamorous, romantic, and, most of all,
uplifing. Blaine told me that every time
she walks in, her shoulders drop and she
breaks into a smile.

A high-gloss nAvy blue

dining room: whAt
possessed you? its so
stArtling And seductive
At the sAme time.
CElERiE KEmblE: Yes, this is where the luminous, dark, and deep coexist. Because the
greatest challenge in here was lack of light,
every surface is refective. The walls are
wrapped in a lacquered stri thats as shiny
as nail polish; the ceiling, chandelier, and
table are silver-leaf; and the big Venetian
mirror above the console refects the chandelier, doubling its twinkle. At night,
the room glistens like moonlight on a lake.
The living room, by contrast, has an inviting
natural glow.
CK: Its flled with elements from the natural worldpen shell on the cofee table,
bone mirrors, snakeskin-patterned leather
on the ottomans, parchment accessories,
a cowhide rug. And the silk wallcovering
has a lovely, sof luster. We started with
the gilt-flecked painting that suggests
wild leaves, which to us seemed glamorously lighthearted. We wanted the room
to be pretty and glittery, but also to feel
friendly and easy. All the fabrics are luxe
but durable, and the furniture begs you to
put your feet up, have a chat, and be merry.
What was the frst order of business when
you renovated?
CAROlinE iRVin: Tackling the layout of the
apartment. It was very strange, a tunnellike series of rooms with transom doors
that felt estranged from one another.
We needed to open it so that the rooms
fowed into each other. The worst aspect
was a huge hallway that fed of the foyer,
consuming an unnecessary amount of
square footage. It ran along the front wall
of a dreary space that had an L-shaped
kitchenette bordering two tiny bedrooms
and a bathroom.
How did you deal with it?
Ci: We took down that long wall, appropriated the hallway, and turned it into the
heart of the housea spacious kitchen that
also serves as a family room. The largescale trellis pattern on the foor really
helped revitalize and unify the space. And
we widened the entry to the living room.
That allowed the light from the window to
pour into the kitchen.
CK: We also widened the dining room

70

entry. So many people never use their dining rooms, and seeing directly into this
one from the foyer made it feel like a vital
part of the apartment, a destination. These
changes made the apartment feel bigger
and much more welcoming. Openness,
inclusiveness, and playfulness were the
mission and guiding forces for our clients.
Why were those things so important to them?
CK: Theyre in their 30s with two young
children, and what they wanted most was
for every area to be a family zone, with
nothing of-limits to their kids. We mostly
worked with the wife. Her husband wasnt
concerned with the detailsall he wanted
was for her to have the home of her dreams,
and the apartment very much refects her
open-armed, efervescent energy.
He had no particular requests?
Ci: Just one: The sofa across from the TV in
the living room had to be comfy and big
enough for the whole family. There isnt a
single piece of furniture that came with
them from their previous life, and we had a
hard time prying him away from a huge
sectional that he loved. His eyes misted up
at the thought of losing it.
Has he gotten over the loss?
CK: He never looked back. Theyre all thrilled
with how quickly they nestled into a place
where everything was new to them. This
apartment feels like themalthough I
could easily and happily live here myself!

Right: Glazed French pottery gleams

in the light of a leaded-glass window
in the breakfast area. OppOsite: When
not on display in the kitchen hutch,
which still features its original milk
paint, Peixinhos 18th- and 19thcentury Canton and nanking export
porcelain gets regular use at meals.

How did a former tHird-grade

teacHernow newports goldstar decoratorcome to live
in a little red scHoolHouse?
John Peixinho: What really attracted me was the
wonderful location in Middletown, with a brook, old
stone walls, and two beaches nearby. Its like this
other part of Newport that wasnt associated with
Beaux Arts mansionsthe small summer houses
out in the country.
Did you worry that moving into an early American icon
might feel like camping out at old Sturbridge Village?
This was not a curatorial restoration. The schoolhouse was built in 1794 and Victorian-ized around
1880, but its one-room charm was erased in 1929,
when private owners converted it into a summer
place. A second foor was inserted under the eaves
in the 1980s, and some objectionable features got
added, like stained-glass windows and dark beams
screwed into the living room ceiling. I took them
out and tried to get things as close to the original as
possible, without re-creating an unlivable past.
So you transformed a no-nonsense classroom for
fdgety kids into an easygoing hangout for grown-ups?
I let three spots within the living room dictate
smaller groupings, where people can relax and chat.
Theres the area around the freplace, the weird
angle at the foot of the stairs, and the alcove for the
schoolmarms deskcentered between the girls
and boys entranceswhich has become a window
seat. In simple spaces that dont have tremendous
architectural integrity, symmetry helps to create
order. My whole living room really revolves around
those two windows fanking the freplace. And Ive
always been a fan of pairing table lamps on each
side of a mantel. They give of a cozy glow, even when
theres no fre burning.
And youve balanced classic vase-lamp bases with a
quirky little Colonial Revival sconce here and there.
Like that captains-wheel light by the stairs? Its just
the kind of thing Henry Sleeper might have used at
Beauport, in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in the 20s. I
love how kitschy but in good tastewell, for the most
partthat place is. It really has had an impact on my
appreciation of Americana.
Did your choice of traditional red siding afect your
indoor palette?
When I go home, I need to get away from a lot of color
and pattern. The burlap on the living room walls
is neutral, but it also reminds me of school bulletin
boards. The frst commission I ever did was a room

for Oatsie Charles, whose previous decorator, Tom

Hagerman, had covered the walls in burlap. That lef
its mark on me. Burlap gives texture, warmth, and
depth without making a huge statement that you cant
undo or work around easily. The same goes for the
woven straw in my dining room. It spans the range
from casual to formal.
Plus its a terrifc backdrop for your salon-style hanging
of ink paintings. Who is the artist?
Van Day Truex, whos much better known, of course,
as a designer. Houses all over Newport have at least
one painting by him, because 50 years ago, Truex was
friends with everybodys grandmother or aunt. Ive
admired him ever since I saw a house he did for himself in the South of Francebamboo furniture covered in rough cotton and bottles that had been turned
into lamps. It was smart, inviting, and cozy, but
totally clean and pure.
What links that modern aesthetic to antiques like your
Chippendale-era chairs?
Those are 18th-century Newport pieces. The cabinetmakers here were mostly Quakers, so the proportions and scale have an unembellished strength that
speaks to you in a diferent way than a fancy New
York side chair would.
And also speaks to the Yankee simplicity of your bedroom upstairs. Do you ever pull the rope in the belfry?
Yes, usually I do it for company. First-time guests
cant believe that the original bell is still there, and
that it sounds so good.

Above: Pupils entered the landmark Peabody School through separate doors
for girls and boys. The exterior appears much as it did in the early 20th century,
Peixinho says. He removed faux-Victorian gingerbread added about 20 years
ago and tweaked the 1980s paint color. The red had been too blue. He opted
instead for Benjamin Moores Country Redwood. below: Outside his barn, the
designer sets the table on the porch he assembled from new tree-trunk columns

didnt feel cold, so we opted
for warmth and light, says
designer Karin Edwards.
Cabinets were removed

John Beshs Kitchen

Welcome,
John!

The Louisiana native

kicks of his House
Beautiful column with
some thoughts on
entertaining and a
cherished family recipe.
With 10 restaurants,
three cookbooks, and several
national TV shows under his
belt, the James Beard Award
winning chef is busy. But he
always makes time to cook at
home for family and friends.
Theres something so soulful about cooking for the people you love and who are closest
to you, Besh says. My wife,
Jenifer, and I have four sons,
and one of the things I want
most for them to know is who
they are through the food and
people around them.
Folks get intimidated by
entertaining, which is why
I keep things simple. Sometimes Ill cook one of the dishes
I grew up on. Sometimes Ill
go out on a limb and try something new. But I always prep as
much in advance as possible
it cuts down on stress and lets
me focus on whats ultimately
most important: creating
a great atmosphere for all my
guests to enjoy.
I love bringing together
people who might not usually
cross paths. Theres so much
we can learn from one another
around the table. Communing
and literally breaking bread
builds connections and pulls
down boundaries. Home is a
refuge, a sanctuary, and food
is a part of that.

Coat the chicken

frying.

My Grandmothers
Fried Chicken
Its the classic buttermilk batter that
gives this fried chicken its crunchy texture.
The batter should just barely adhere to
the chicken, so make sure you give each piece
a little shake to let some extra drop of before
frying. My grandmother would put the lid
on her pot afer the chicken went in the hot
oil, and a kind of pressure-cooker thing
would begin to happen, meaning the meat
inside got to cook through while leaving the
outside crispy.

Yield: 6 servings
1 free-range organic
chicken, cut into 8
pieces
Salt
Freshly ground black
pepper
1 quart buttermilk
3 cups four
Canola oil
1. Season the chicken

pieces generously with

salt and pepper. In a
large bowl, soak the

chicken in the buttermilk

for at least 15 minutes.
The idea is that the
lactic acid tenderizes
the chicken. Sometimes
my grandmother
would even soak the
chicken overnight in
the fridge.
2. Season the four with

salt and pepper and

spread on a plate or in a
wide bowl. Dredge each
chicken piece in the seasoned four to coat well.

3. Heat about 1 inch of

the canola oil in a castiron Dutch oven until it

reads 350F on a candy
thermometer. In small
batches, place a few
pieces of the chicken in the
oil at a time and fry for 6 to
8 minutes. Using a slotted
spoon, carefully turn over
each piece, then cover the
pot and cook for an additional 6 minutes. Drain
the fried chicken on paper
towels and salt well.

Pure
Calm
Belgian style, with its enveloping neutrals accented by
rustic woods, was the inspiration for the new bathroom
in Susan Bednar Longs 1800
Connecticut country house.
She chose honed limestone
for the counter, the shower
stall, and the foor because it
reminded her of creamy sand
and had a velvety touch. Its
porous, and maintenance can
be an issue, but its sealed so
that helps, she explains. I
have a silver tray on the vanity,
and thats where I put my cofee
cup so it doesnt leave a ring.
The limestone tiles in
the shower measure 12 by
24 inches, rather than the
more common 12 by 12, so they
resemble slabs of stone. On
the foor, they alternate with
bands of Heartwood Natural
porcelain tile by Walker Zanger,
which looks remarkably like
limed wood but can stand up
to water. I love the rhythm and
the crispness of stripes, and
the bold foor is a surprise,
Long says. It makes the room
feel modern.
That creates a nice counterpoint to the old-fashioned fxtures, the Jacobean-style chair,
and the drop-leaf table, topped
with a lamp. Lamplight is very
cozy and adds to the warmth as
soon as you walk in, she says.
I like to use real furniture in
a bathroom. It sofens all
the hard surfaces. Too many
built-ins turn me of. I want to
be unique and diferent.

Six designers share

their secrets for tackling
projects with perfect
precision.

Wood-finish markers
are great for patching up
scrapes and scratches,
and they come in a range of
stains, from cherry to oak.

I pull out my folding ruler for

everything, from figuring
out wainscoting heights to crown
molding thicknesses. I can bend
it and prop it against a wall to
simulate a three-dimensional piece
of furniture. You cant
do that with a tape measure!
Brian J. McCarthy

I always carry a stash of felt

protectors to put beneath
furniture on wood floors, or to
wedge under tables as shims.

My Leatherman Surge is
actually 21 tools in one. There
are scissors, screwdrivers, and
even a bottle opener, for when
you get thirsty on the job.
