HOUSE OF DESIGN - North Loggia

The North Loggia serves as a romantic Roman inspired retreat after dinner.

Bronze sconces and chandeliers cast a romantic glow onto the gossamer fabric draping from the ceiling in this intimate and relaxing retreat. A comfortable settee with sumptuous fabric upholstery and luxuriously overstuffed pillows with opulent trim invites long rests or peaceful contemplation of the beautiful gardens beyond the North Loggia.

Various textures of gorgeous Jim Thompson Thai Silk fabrics reflect a classic Roman use of neutral tones with gold and they are combined with paprika accents of the color palette. A classical rug helps define the seating area of the settee, table and pair of Empire arm chairs. Classical urns of tall grasses and smaller urns of flowers create a transition to the gardens beyond.
