    So many interesting ways of displaying art in this home. I love the chairs and table at the end of the bed.

    So fun to look at! Thanks for posting it. There's a few too many nipples and busts/portraits for my personal taste but overall, it's quite liveable. It's also quite toned down from your usual layered room posts. Not so rococo.
    However, my favorite room is the kitchen which is a bit different in style than the other rooms.
    Love the entranceway!

    I appreciate a house that has lots of room for books. Thanks for sharing.

    Beez, that "there's a few too many nipples" comment made me LOL. I actually like the kitchen as well.

    Very nice. It would take me a lifetime to collect that much art.
    I would need to tone down the stuff on the tables/ chairs. I love the layering of the art, window treatments, rugs. But I need the end tables and coffee table clutter free.

    Don't love the plates on the counter in the kitchen.

    Love all the room for books! Also, like the fact that things are so symmetrical. For some reason, I get hung up on that. Gorgeous entrance!

    Even though there is an abundance of vignettes and the rooms are staged to the max, I still get the feeling that someone *lives* there - it's for show but also for the residents. With the exception of the dining room, I'd be a very comfortable guest there.

    I think the portrait in the last photo is one of Corrigan's ancestors.

    I want to move in to that green room. I LOVE it! :) I like the painted island too in the kitchen and the room with the portraits :)

    Even though I don't like green, I love the green room! Looks like it could be the den as the bottom picture looks more like a library.

    I love the entry hall, the pendants over the kitchen island, and that last pic of what I'm assuming is the library. So cozy! Thanks for sharing.

    I thought that last pic was the other end of the bedroom, no? the blinds and wall color seem to be the same.

    I like how the busts on top of the credenza hutch mimic the cameos in the hutch doors.

    Interesting! Also note that the lamp table and lamp etc. at the end of the LR (in the 2 pictures above the green room) have changed - and the green chairs moved?

    I love the home. I think we all get caught up in too much detail. I might have different art, I might have different plates, but overall the house and the way of layering the decor is very handsome.

    Why does that green room make me so happy? I'm not a fan of stained trim or ornate accessories and I would never in a million years pick that color. It's magic.

    Love the green dining room/library. The green kitchen island is exactly the color of my laundry room cabinets, so I like the island. ;)
    The rest has too many too studied and too symmetrical elements for me--like the pillows two-by-two and the aforementioned nipple motif.

    Love it, especially the green room and the kitchen. Thanks for posting.

    I am absolutely mad for the bedroom and the entry hall ad staircase.

    Really lovely. It is always fun to look and this seems more live able somehow than most layered rooms do to me. Thank you for posting.

    I've returned to look at these photos over and over again-what a treat! Thanks!

    I've read that it's much easier to do a layered look in dark colors than light because the dark can absorb a lot more detail without looking cluttered. Whatever, this is done beautifully, and I'm especially in love with the living room with the mirror surrounded by portraits.

    Except for all the nudie pics and statues, it is a beautiful, soothing home. I have Christopher Lowell's book, "Seven Layers of Decorating" and it really is all about the "layers," although this home seems to have about 14 layers! Stunning home.
