There was no playing it safe this year

Holiday House 2012 NYC  brought dramatic flair:

  Geoffrey designs a line of textiles and wall coverings,


 you definitely get the feeling you've been invited to an exclusive party, a throw back to another era when entering this elegant room which is just off the entry way of the home
Father's Day is an over the top tribute to a special space just for a guy's guy. What man wouldn't love a cozy get-away where he can participate in all his decadent activities, from drinking brandy to reading and thinking about race car driving
 this is a high voltage testosterone-infused space 
finished off with a large, antique gun gracing the mantel. 
 fur throws, lavish purple fabric, and a missile sculpture all help outfit the space
 The Art Deco furniture, and a well-stocked bar finish the paneled library well.
