Family/Media Room
TWO BY TWO
“I love to design with pairs—it gives the space symmetry and balance, which makes my heart happy.” Megan selected matching Universal Furniture sectionals and ottomans and then hung two oversize rattan chandeliers from Currey & Company overhead. “They were actually so large they had to come in through the windows rather than the door!”
THINK PINK
“I initially thought the ceiling would be solid green, as we wanted a moody media room. When a colleague suggested we paint the 30-inch-wide pink stripes, I embraced the idea because it’s one of my signature colors. It became the perfect touch, adding the ‘tent’ to our jungle.”
GAME ON
“Kelly Wearstler is one of my style icons, and I upholstered chairs from Universal with her fabric for Lee Jofa.” The tulip-style table provides a chic surface to play games. The painting above the table is by Meredith Pardue through Ann Connelly Fine Art.
Indoor Jungle
“I call this room the ‘Jungle Tent.’ When I spotted the wallpaper from Cole & Son, I had to have it—it’s bold with the tropical feel I wanted, and it pulled the color palette together.”
CHIC CONTRAST
The prickly texture of the porcupine-quill mirror from Ngala Trading contrasts with the contemporary profile of the reeded chest in a matte-white finish.
MAKING AN ENTRANCE
“I draped a curtain at the door so you would feel as if you’re walking into the tent. It’s tied back with a rattan chain we often use as an accessory arranged over a bowl or book.”
FLORAL SPOTLIGHT
Emily Eberwine of Pick-a-Petal Floral Design matched the jungle energy of the room with a bursting composition of purple delphinium and a smaller bouquet of cascading amaranthus with fatsia leaves in white vases. The scale of the delphinium complements the dramatic elements of the room, but keeping it a single flower arrangement helps the flowers harmonize with the space instead of compete with it.
