Classic details marry with contemporary profiles to create a space outside of an era. Timefull materials, intended to age, lend ease and authenticity to the design. Unlacquered brass, hand troweled plaster, honed Pietra Gris, and ebonized oak walk the line between grandeur and everyday living. Pairings: wild rice, rainy afternoons, Crémant d’Alsace.
This is home of Victoria Sass of Minneapolis-based Prospect Refuge. It is everything I love about design and more. Respecting the history of a home (NOT painting the original woodwork!), adding lots of vintage touches and mixing it with more contemporary furnishings which are often what gets you the level of comfort we have come to expect. I adore every little bit each space. Photos: Chris Mottalini.
