Editing a decorating magazine, especially one like Veranda, is in many ways the highest kind of education. Its an incomparable perch from which you get to see the best the field has to offer. There are the serene oases in which every yard of linen, every plush seat back, every gracefully placed chalky lamp seems calibrated to take you far, far away. Or the intensely personal tours-de-force that dazzle you with leopard-print needlepoint, chinoiserie pelmets, lacquerwalls so slick that they reflect your face back at you like a mirrorand you can see yourself grinning from ear to ear with the dizzying deliciousness of it all. And then there are the gorgeous and beautiful iterations that fall somewhere in between, homes that split the difference between fireworks and poetry to land on something that reads like a biography and sends you on your way thinking that, yes, maybe you should try marble door casings, or mixing ikat with stripes, or lining your living room in loden green velvet, or hanging curtains with swags, or painting every room white... I could go on and on, but I dont have to, because all those lessons are here on these pages and theyre our gift to you. Happy decorating.

In an Atlanta living room by Melanie Turner a sofa covered in tiger-stripe - photo 33

In an Atlanta living room by Melanie Turner, a sofa covered in tiger-stripe velvet was inspired by one owned by Lee Radziwill and becomes a fittingly stylish and bold focal point.

animal prints

A whos who of tastemakers have sworn by them, including no lesser personages than the Empress Josphine, Elsie de Wolfe, Billy Baldwin, Bill Blass, and Albert Hadley, just to name a very few. Theres a good reason theyre all devotees. When it comes to giving a room a dash of cosmopolitan glamour, nothing does it quite like an animal print. If youre the cautious type, you might want to be judicious in your applicationa leopard seat cushion or throw pillow is the chic equivalent of a quiet purr. But theres nothing wrong with a full-throated embrace of the style: an antelope, zebra, or tiger rug lays a versatile, genre-defying foundation for a statement space thats as gutsy as a roar. Welcome to the jungle.

antiques

There is a noble beauty that comes from an armchair or table that has stood the test of time for centuries. A gracefully aged, lovingly used antique gives a space a sense of history and a lasting soulfulness that no shiny, fresh-off-the-line piece of furniture ever can. An heirloom can be like an old friend who was there when your great-grandmother took tea and is still hanging around the living room to watch you sip your double macchiato. This points to the important thing to remember with inherited (or seemingly inherited) objects: they must adapt. Nobody wants to live in a museum. Period pieces dont have to dictate period rooms. Think of it as a balancing act. Match a Georgian chest of drawers with a vivid work of contemporary art. Pair a walnut claw-and-ball-footed highboy with diaphanous taffeta curtains and pretty painted floors. The gorgeous results will combine a healthy respect for the past with a joyful celebration of the way we live today.
