Graceful in Green

This New York home seems far away from the maddening crowds thanks to the quiet decorating touches that take their cues from nature.

All are welcomed into this serene home that's warmed by light and quieted by a one-color-plus-neutral palette. Luscious greens as soft as moss fill the house with gentle color. From the deepest jewel tones to the palest sage, green gracefully weaves its way from room to room.

At the center of the living room, a tall fir brushes the ceiling. Green Christmas balls in satin and reflective finishes graduate in size from small to large, following the shape of the tree. Hundreds of glass icicles and yard after yard of gold package cord add sparkle to the tree while keeping the look simple and sophisticated.
