Living Large: Grand Living Rooms

The best living rooms— no matter how grand they may be—pay as much attention to comfort and conviviality as to style.

Stephen Harris & Lucien Rees Roberts

A soaring ceiling and simple pine paneling create a sense of airy minimalism in the living area of the upstate New York home of architect Steven Harris and designer Lucien Rees Roberts. The daybed is 19th century, and the club chairs are by Patrick Naggar; Rees Roberts painted the landscape.

Georgette Farkas

A crystal chandelier, pink bergères, and a reproduction Boulle desk add Gallic flair to the living room of Georgette Farkas’s Manhattan apartment. The walls are painted in Benjamin Moore’s Santorini Blue.

Rose Anne de Pampelonne

Designer Rose Anne de Pampelonne combined two rooms of her family’s Beaux Arts mansion in Paris to create an opulent living area. Custom-made bookcases are topped with porcelain urns, and a Han Dynasty horse is displayed above a 17th-century marble mantel. Sumptuous details include a pair of chairs in a silk-damask brocatelle, ebonized side chairs in a zebra stripe, and silk-taffeta curtains.
