where the furniture justifies the endeavor. Here it is success¬ 
ful, for the old English furniture gave the keynote for the 
dining-room and breakfast alcove. Simplicity and dignity 
have been preserved in the architectural background

The foyer or small hallway is always a 
problem. Since it is a place to pass 
through, the furniture should not ob¬ 
struct the passing, yet it should be so 
arranged as to bespeak the hospitality of 
the house. Above the antique oak coffer 
hangs a tooled leather panel. The carved 
oak console is surmounted by a marble 
slab and a Florentine bust

A balanced living-room grouping of 
great dignity and charm has been set 
against fawn-colored paneled walls. The 
davenport is upholstered in velvet icith 
black tapestry pillows. The end tables 
are of oak. The lamps are in gold 
antiqued with shades of fawn-colored 
silk corresponding with the walls
