East Meets West in Long Island Home

This large and very beautiful Georgian-style Long Island home was designed by Christopher Maya for a Chinese family moving to America for the first time.

And what a welcome they would receive when stepping into this glorious chinoiserie foyer!  It's breathtakingly pretty with the fresh green of de Gournay papered walls.  I wouldn't want to leave the foyer!

The gallery.

I love the honeycomb design on the painted floor of the breakfast room.

Upstairs landing with the chinoiserie wallpaper from the foyer is the perfect spot to 

stop and take a breath and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings.

The trellis overlays are painted in Benjamin Moore's 'Summer Shower'

and the ceiling is done in Benjamin Moore's 'Lookout Point'.

The master bedroom was designed for the couple to enjoy music, fireplace, reading spaces and relaxing.

The daughter's room done in beautiful shades of blue.

A Room of Her Own - Charlotte Moss' Sleeping Porch/Study

I thought you might like to see where Charlotte does her collage art that I posted about earlier this week.

As you can see, she has all her magazines and collage supplies nicely tucked away in the bookshelves behind her bed.  There's a divan under the window with lots of light for browsing through her magazines for ideas.  An antique  daybed to stretch out on for a power nap, or as Charlotte says, "a perch for Oscar and Daisy while I work". An architect's desk where she cuts and pastes her collages. And a writing desk.

This is what the sleeping porch looked like before Charlotte re-decorated as seen in the first three images.  Notice the painted floor is the same in all images.
