Our recent visit to The Breakers and The Elms left me absolutely enchanted by the architectural sophistication of America's Gilded Age. Walking through those magnificent rooms, I found myself captivated by the interplay of classical proportions, rich materials, and that unmistakable sense of refined luxury that defined an era. So naturally, I had to create my own interpretation! This design captures what I loved most about those Newport mansions - the crystal chandeliers that command without overwhelming, the built-in libraries that speak to cultured living, and that perfect balance of grandeur and intimacy. Sometimes the best inspiration comes from experiencing true craftsmanship firsthand. 🏛️
