@Oznell  Thank you for sharing. The inside and pool are beautiful. Have a good day! 🙂

Do you have more ?? 👍

Good points, @stevieb ,   I agree with them.  I did find the house a little 'overdone' in some aspects, although I admire the skill and some of the handsome effects he achieved.  That designer's "glossiness" I thought was somewhat tempered by his disciplined color schemes.

And agree--  I wonder why the redesigned architecture of the exterior wasn't more felicitous? 

I'm always curious about the choices that designers make for themselves...

You're most welcome, @Mimi 1883 !  There are a few more pics of this specific house on the "Cote de Texas" blog (which is really a fun, detailed decorating blog-- I really recommend it.).   She also shows the archtitect's stunning range of antique collectibles and decor pieces that are being sold at the same time as the house.

I hope to put up pictures of "Part 2",  when "Cote" says she will show a contrasting house that will be a counterpoint to this more 'masculine' residence.  That will be an interesting comparison, I think...

@stevieb , just moved into our home in Al. Can you help with colours rooms are pained. When I chose a sampleolive it had to much olive tonr. Also same with taupe. Do not like yellow. LOVE colors in this house. Can you help? Always use Ben. Moore. HAPPY EASTER. Hopefully the Easter Bunny left you the best !!!

@Oznell  Do you have pictures of other homes? I like classic 🙂and not a fan of modern or even the retro looks. I find a lot of beautiful houses and interiors on Pinterest (love that site) and love looking at them. Thanks so much for posting these!!

If you celebrate, have a Happy Easter 🐣 🌺!

Certainly better than the original. I love the dining room set, those curtains schlepped all over the floor- NO -

It's not a mansion, in order to do that style curtain you need a huge room with very tall ceilings.  Pet peeve of mine.  It's sloppy.

I love most of this beautiful home. Some of the ornate pieces are just too much for me but that's  all I would change....the pool area is perfection.

Too many "decorative" items clutter the rooms.  I'd trip over most of them.

I always picture things covered with dog hair.  Too many dog hair catchers in this house.  Remove those and the rest is fine.

I’m surprised....but I actually LOVE it!

It all looks a bit cluttered to me.  And why don't people put window coverings up?  i.e. curtains, drapes, shades, etc.
