Identical, custom-built slipper chairs, upholstered in grey and white on the front side, and midnight linen on the black. From the living room, the pattern on the chairs adds visual intrigue to the space.Barry Calhoun

Bird statue on the coffee table. A cast concrete fireplace facade with a simple profile achieves a delicate balance: The material's weight echoes the home's substance while its finish accentuates the muted elegance of the room's furnishings.Barry Calhoun
