the architectural beauty of a tall sofa

the gorgeous pair of high back and high arm sofas from yesterday’s post inspired me to write a themed post today…I’m passionate for this cocoon like form…many of my favorite designers either create their own version or incorporate this sofa style in their interiors…I hope you enjoy this closer look at the architectural beauty of a tall sofa…makes me want to curl up in the corner with a great book!

sag harbor gem ~ heiberg cummings design

Today’s post features a Sag Harbor gem designed by homeowners William Cummings and Bernt Heiberg…founders of Heiberg Cummings Design, “they wanted to create a modern oasis for entertaining informally in understated luxury”

Pillowcases made from antique flour sacks, fresh cut flowers and natural linens mingle with tactile found objects and carefully chosen luxury items…the result, a one of a kind weekend home alive with a roaring fire, candlelight and piles of pillows just perfect for a summer snooze…my favorite detail, the French textile chosen for the living room blinds…a beautiful and unexpected texture that plays perfectly with the rooms neutral palette…brilliant!
