The white house with a red roof is well-known in Memphis. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. An attractive house is even more lovely when the owners are delightful; that is certainly the case here. Located near an intersection of prominent residential streets in an established neighborhood, the house was built in 1994 in the far reaches of the deep garden of a stately home on the corner. To those who do not know the homeowners, it is known as the white house with a red roof. An exterior view of the entrance. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. A few years ago, The Devoted Classicist was fortunate to meet the homeowners, Dr. Randy and Linda Kay McCloy. The McCloys bought the house mid-construction, being built on speculation by Hank Hill using a set of plans by Looney Ricks Kiss, a firm known for its successful series of house plans sold through Southern Living magazine. They were able to personalize the house by making a few changes and specifying some custom detailing with the help of J. Carson Looney. The original landscaping was designed by long-time friend Ben Page of the Nashville firm now called Page Duke. The Entrance Hall looking back towards the front door. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. Linda Kay McCloy has owned a retail antiques and home furnishings store (as well as an interior design practice that is still active), and has travelled to England for the past twenty-five years on buying trips. She had become enthralled with the decorating style of John Fowler, the designer whose work was the hallmark of the English country house style, but also Sister Parish, whose work epitomized the comfortable American version of the style. The Living Room. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. The colors of the decorating schemes were inspired by the gardens, both front and back. Balancing strongly colored rooms against others pastel colored, patterns and textures of the fabrics are mixed with furnishings of various styles and pedigrees to create a casual elegance. It is the mix that makes it all such a success. The Dining Room. Swedish Rococo chairs are now used for seating. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. The decorative painting was done by Richard Martin, an artist whose work is often featured in Mrs. McCloy's decorating jobs. Martin paints furniture as well as walls and trim. The chimneypiece in the Living Room features a portrait he painted of the house. The painted wood valances in the Dining Room were presented as a house-warming gift. Across from the entrance to the Dining Room, a small painted folding screen is placed above the sideboard. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. Following Sister Parish's fondness for the hand-crafted, quilts and afghans are liberally dispersed among both slip-covered and serious furniture. A colorful and cozy Study is located just off the Entrance Hall. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. And reflecting John Fowler's taste for mixing "high" and "low", such as lavish curtains contrasting with simple furnishings, eccentric colors contribute to the "humble elegance" like Fowler created for himself. Another view of the Study. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda. Here, the designer has interpreted the style with an excellent curator's eye, displaying unique objects of porcelain, needlework, and tole.

Since this time, there have been some refinements to make the interior even more charming. The Master Bedroom. Photo by David Schilling for Veranda.

Fui verificar a casa de campo do designer Howard Slatkin para ver se era mais "simples" que o apartamento em New York! Comparando, realmente acho que tem menos objetos, mas o requinte e as minúcias continuam iguais. Ele vive mais nesta casa que fica em New Jersey. Casa linda! Muitos tons de azul no living. Porcelanas azul e branco contrastando com armários vermelhos. Um dos quartos. Piso pintado em branco e verde. Quarto de hóspedes. Banheiro com muitos detalhes. Banheiro mais sóbrio. Detalhes de maçaneta e entrada de chave com desenho do proprietário e porta pintada com stencil. Dobradiça também com desenho de Howard . Detalhe do termostato. Louças lindas. Louças azul e branco em uma escrivaninha. Louças e vela NEST, a preferida do decorador. Topiarias feitas no Natal. Fotos: Howard Latkin, Cote de Texas, Little Augury, Quinte Essence.

Generally speaking, commentaries written about society rarely age well, but one that has is The Beautiful People. Written in 1967 by former New York Times journalist Marylin Bender, the book is, to quote the front of the dust jacket, "a candid examination of a cultural phenomenon- the marriage of Fashion and Society in the 60's". The Sixties was a turbulent decade in which upheaval was the norm rather than the exception, and Fashion and Society were not immune to that era's seismic changes. The 1960s saw fashion designers achieve newfound social status, while many socialites left their lofty perches to become shills for the fashion companies, ultimately becoming what we now refer to as brand ambassadors. Sound familiar? So many of Bender's observations remain relevant today, especially this one: "American fashion is flower-printed sheets and towels by Porthault, fine French 18th-century furniture, English silver, baby pillows, silver-framed photographs and a clutter of small objects all over the place." The same could be said of today's American fashion, although French furniture and English silver may not be quite as popular as they once were. (I still have an appreciation for both, and I'm sure many of you do, too. On the whole, though, younger sophisticates don't quite have the passion for either one.) Porthault remains a favorite among the cognoscenti, as do silver-framed photographs, baby pillows, and clusters of small objects. Take a look at sophisticated homes from the past and today, and you'll see that although things have changed greatly over the decades, there are some elements of fashion (and good taste, for that matter) that have thankfully remained the same.

I adore flowers, not to mention porcelain. And I'm particularly keen on porcelain flowers, especially those so delicately crafted by Pamela Tidwell of Vieuxtemps Porcelain. (I awake to her sublime grape hyacinth every morning.) But the little porcelain flowers that I'm featuring today lack pots. In fact, most of them lack stems, too. They beg to be cradled in one's hand, don't they? And they seem to cry out for company, too, if the Christie's website is any indication. Over the years, most of the 18th and 19th century flowers that they have auctioned off seem to be parts of great collections. It's easy to understand how one ceramic floral bloom might lead to another, and another, and another. While some of the most prominent examples of these stemless porcelain flowers were made by Sèvres (favorites of both Louis XV and Madame de Pompadour), others were made by Meissen, Chantilly, and other European porcelain makers. Even if porcelain isn't your thing, you have to admit that a profusion of these delicate flowers make for some really striking photos. They make for really striking bouquets, too.

While I was in Greensboro, North Carolina a few weeks ago, I visited The Pink Door, a charming antiques and home accessories shop. There was a lot there that caught my eye, but what really struck my fancy were the rather elaborate and, yes, traditional curtains that hung from each window. One room had curtains that were made of oyster-colored silk which had been fashioned into swags, tails, bows, rosettes, and ruffles. (You can see one of the curtains above.) While I realize that for many people, this type of curtain has gone with the wind, I find it utterly charming. These curtains were different from what we typically see today, something which probably heightened their allure for me. They were proper, dressy, and a little fancy- basically, the antithesis of what people seem to want these days. But more than anything, these curtains represent a bygone era in design that I miss terribly. They spoke of the good old days of decorating. Now, I don't think that this blog post is going to cause anyone to run out and ditch their plain curtain panels for swags and tails, but I do wish that people would start to reconsider certain elements of formal, traditional curtains. Tailored swags, rosettes, pinked edges, and a few bows here and there don't have to look terribly fussy, especially when crafted of solid-colored fabrics. Deeda Blair had swagged and bow-bedecked curtains in her home in Washington D.C. And who can forget those magnificent curtains that John Fowler designed for the Bruces' set at Albany? In fact, The Pink Door curtains kind of remind me of the Bruces' curtains, though on a much smaller scale. Well, even if this blog post falls on deaf ears, I say kudos to The Pink Door for being such a stylish, chic shop, all within the confines of some very swish curtains. Deeda Blair's curtains, which are so feminine and elegant. The famous John Fowler curtains in the Bruces' drawing room, Albany. A John Fowler curtain sketch.
