New Canaan Renovation
An interior precedent featuring a warm timber dining set and cantilevered cane chairs anchored under a large paper globe pendant in an open multi-level residence.
- What we like about this project
- The large spherical paper lantern floats directly above the flower centerpiece, creating a soft focal point in the middle of the open volume.
