MEG BRAFF ~ INTERIOR DESIGN IN PALM BEACH


Interior designer Meg Braff created a calm palette of neutral and beige tones with pops of color in this Palm Beach home.  The client is a mother of three and wanted a livable feel to this home. 

The chinoiserie  wallpaper in the bedrooms and the trellis wallpaper in the dining room bring elegance to the rooms.  The client’s collection of Dodie Thayer Lettuce Ware is displayed in the dining room.  The raw silk sofa in the living room has an added border and the beautiful chairs in the living room are covered in Cowtan & Tout’s Tortola in Multi Fern, bringing pops of color to the home.  ENJOY!

GARDEN IN NANTUCKET

There is nothing I love more than a beautiful garden, filled with beautiful flowers and herbs, statues, fountains and stones.  This garden was built on the beach in Nantucket, presenting problems that are associated with sand and salt water.

Susan and Coleman Burke dug a seven foot deep trench and built a wall to separate the sea and its spray from the lush garden.  The Burkes then filled in the garden with soil and gravel, planting lavatera, butterfly bushes, poppies, roses and Russian sage.   ENJOY!
