The Perfect Bath

'Recently, I went to a wonderful 1920′s Tudor style house situated on a golf course in Westchester County, NY. The rooms had gracious proportions, the interior details original and the condition perfect. That is, except for the bathrooms. They too were original and untouched but certainly not attractive. It was hard to imagine a time when a lilac colored floor and mint green walls would have been considered pretty.

However, I do like how the modern plasterwork meets the ancient architectural features like the timber lintel and masonry details. [In truth, I think it''s the Gascogne jardin just outside the door that''s calling my name this afternoon.
