A Place to Dwell

While international travel is nowhere on the horizon during these pandemic times, one can always fantasize about where they would go if they could. For me it would be the small village of Surrey in England. Claire Vero’s renovation on her 19th century classic Georgian home is picture perfect. Vero, used London-based interior decorators Mary Graham and Nicole Salvesen of Salvesen Graham for the design work. I love the layering of fabrics and patterns. And can you imagine dining at that table – musical chairs at dessert, and lounging in one of the cozy arm chairs along the wall while others linger at the table. And the master bedroom with the sofa that poses as a footboard for the bed? Just perfection. I’ll take that gorgeous black lab too!
