SERENE COMPOSITION
1A vintage Verner Panton floor lamp and the owner’s cello are lovely focal points in this Sydney living room, which was stripped back and painted in a receding neutral to draw attention to the high ceiling and period details. Framed top and bottom by the striking pendant light and rug, depth comes from the black-stained timber floor and fireplace surround in honed black granite. “I love the Federation features of the room,” says the owner. “The lighter palette has modernised the house and given it a lovely atmosphere.”
