Room of the Day: Rich Color Provides the Backdrop for a Collected Look (18 photos)

The owner had lived in Africa and traveled a great deal, picking up pieces along the way, including taxidermy and lots of collections. “Her partner is into midcentury design and retro style, so I had to coordinate their tastes,” Knox says. “As soon as I saw all her artwork, I knew straight away that a deep vintage green, with copper and orange as the accents, was going to make everything in this room sing.”

Knox and the owners chose this color during their first consultation. “The dark green brings that warm feeling of age to the space,” Knox says. “It’s like a gentlemen’s club with a dash of taxidermy. That was the theme.”
