The French Connection

A home that is a wish fulfilled; rooms where reality and creativity embrace, full of Provencal charm. Beautiful fabrics define the fine lines of the furniture. It is American French Country Style, which fuses the spirit of America with the sophistication of France.

Garden views are invited into the rooms. The sun-drenched colors of southern France blend appropriately into this couple's Central Florida lifestyle.

Found in Texas antique dealer showrooms, authentic touches such as carved doors and a wine column, as well as hand-carved inserts and artifacts were selected by the designer as the plans were being developed to be incorporated into the building of the home. The walls are nearly all glazed, polished or tumbled to suggest age along with special lighting and cabinet finishes.

This is a home that reflects the taste, interest, and lifestyle of the owners; comfortable but not complex.
