Old Westbury Neoclassical
View into library/study from grand entry foyer. The floors of this home were stained with a custom blend of walnut and dark oak stain to let the grain of the white oak shine through. The walls have all been paneled and painted a crisp white to set off the stark gray used on the upper part of the walls, above the paneling. An oversized chandelier crown the foyer, with edison filament bulbs, to keep a formal room feeling more casual. A silk light grey rug was used in the library/study to mirror the one in the dining room, which looks directly onto the foyer as well. A large black stained console was used with tall glass buffet lamps and an oversized sculptural mirror set above the wall paneling.
