The stunning home that you are about to witness is so astonishing that we ran out of words. It’s located in New Jersey’s horse country on open incredible land. The house looks like it’s been there for almost a thousand years and yet is filled with all the modern amenities. This European-style house has been designed with such interiors that are elegant without ostentation. You can find fine large contemporary art that eches classical themes, piles of fabrics, and rugs that are suit the atmosphere, also layers of Venetian plaster and hand-applied gold foil in the living room, followed by a hand-sanding so that the gold would properly melt into the plaster.
Let’s talk about the antique Indian rug that has been added in gold, rose, and oxblood, and the discreetly patterned upholstered armchairs. These interior details make the room both whispers and glow.
One of the traditional rules of one of the owners that had to be respected was a paneled library, a pair of 19th-century French terra-cotta figures. In the foyer, there are artistic postmodern photographs but they were created over images of classical sculptures which brings perfect balance in the room.
The female dressing room is pink velvet, but far from blinding. There are custom poufs in silk velvet, Art Deco desk, wonderful and stylish pendants, and a fitting chair.
This house has been constructed for four years, so you can imagine how the move-in has been anticipating. The authenticity and flexibility are hard to be escaped most of it because this ambitious project requires a very specific kind of collaboration – equal talent at all levels.
We take you to a house tour now! Enjoy every bit of it:
