THE HOME OF 
MEREDITH HARE 
HUNTINGTON, L. I. 
From the living room one can 
look through a massive archi¬ 
tectural door to the upper level 
of the drawing room. Here the 
walls are paneled in gum wood, 
which is a tobacco brown. 
Against this background are spots 
of color given by the bookbind¬ 
ings, paintings, bibelots and up¬ 
holstered chairs. The room has a 
dignity that, is compatible with 
comfort 
Its proportions and simplicity in 
its wall finish and furnishing 
make the dining room a dignified 
place. The paneled walls are 
painted in neutral tones with 
white trim. An antique carved 
wood mantel is surmounted by a 
marble bas-relief. The furniture 
is antique and of the simplest 
character. The screen of old 
prints and the pedestal add 
interest
