Decorator Scrapbook, Dean Farris

DEAN FARRIS INTERIOR DESIGN
When I was designing for Norris, about four years ago, I created this lovely remodel and decoration for a client in Naples, who came through a referral from the office of the late Albert Hadley...the living room (partially shown, above) was featured on the Hickory Chair blog...

The sun room-guest bedroom, faces west towards the gulf- and we used woven wicker chairs and a nice soft wool carpet in a cheery yellow and white plaid...

The small Kitchen- we replaced an old Sub-Zero fridge, and installed a new bamboo floor, new cabinets, honed marble tops, and new glass tile backsplash with a unique embossed fish motif...

Above, we created, with the builder, Tony Felice, a handsome built-in, with false doors, glazed in clear mirror, creating an illusion of more space in the small, 1970's era space- we also recovered an existing Lawson arm Billy Baldwin style sofa in a nubby oyster Ralph Lauren silk tweed...this small sofa faces the terrace and the serene Gulf of Mexico...and is quite comfortable...this small condo also has two bathrooms we also gutted and remodeled, and the master bedroom has been shown in a previous post on DFS...hope you enjoy this glimpse of a pet project of ours- Cheers!
