Overview for the Morning Room
Daily moments of peace should be destinations in and of themselves. Whether perched in a club chair with coffee in hand and your dog at your feet, or curled up on the chaise with a good book, this lounge is the sacred place where an evolving family can begin and end the day with joy.
Consisting of two distinct areas united through a transportive essence and rich, comforting palette, every square foot serves a purpose. A nuanced blend of rose, terracotta, and merlot hues is grounded by luminous whites and variations of natural stone, resulting in an atmosphere that transitions seamlessly from day to night. Evoking the ambiance of a boutique hotel, plentiful seating, and tabletops of varying heights meet the day’s ever-changing needs, while floor-to-ceiling sheers drape the room in comfort. Though stylish, every detail was designed to stand the test of time. Perennials fabrics covering the sofa and swivel club chairs repel spills, wipeable Holly Hunt faux vinyl covers the antique breakfast chairs, and wool rugs from Madison Lily and The Rug Store boast spill-friendly patterns and palettes. Inviting you in to share a quiet moment, a casual meal, or a gathering of minds, this luxurious haven is destined to be the most desirable room in the house. — Marcus Mohon Interiors
