Hamptons Designer Showhouse: Ron Foire for Hickory Chair
The enormous master suite at the Hamptons Designer Showhouse was designed by
Ron Fiore for Hickory Chair
. Using many of Hickory Chair's classic pieces, Ron wove together an elegant and airy bedroom with different zones for a hideaway within the house.
I loved the desk beneath a window facing the pool beside the fireplace; those large work areas are so useful for spreading out!
The tablescapes around the room were stunning, whats not to like with this collection of vases?
Although a bit washed out in my photograph, the sitting area looked like the perfect little corner to cozy up into. I love having those 2 lamps side by side in the shelf for reading lights.
A virtual footboard for the bed was created with the backs of these timeless chairs (even Christian Dior would approve!).
If I had to find one fault with the room, and this is personal, I hate the trend to cover books with paper. While I agree it makes the room more serene perhaps, I just love books and hate to see them covered. A bookshelf is so much more interesting when there are titles to survey.
The master bath was completed by
Carole Reed Design
and I loved the layered window treatments. Even I, a sworn shower taker, might be tempted by this tub (and my monogram is even included on that towel!).
