Photographs by Gillies 
Among the unusual accessories is a star¬ 
shaped lantern suspended over the couch 
and a brilliant carmine glass bowl that 
rests on the table in the bow window. 
The curtains at these windows are of two 
layers of chiffon, one mauve, the other 
green. In the little window is a rack 
of test tubes filled with colored water 
To be understood the color of the room 
must be seen. The walls are covered 
with plain gold paper. Woodwork and 
doors are painted dark green with the 
panels a light green. The floor is red 
tile. - A mixture of Italian and Gothic 
furniture has been used. Multi-colored 
cushions and old brocade add interest
