THOMAS JAYNE ~ DESIGN IN PHILADELPHIA

Interior designer Thomas Jayne renovated and decorated this beautiful four-story, 11,000 square-foot townhouse. The Greek Revival home needed some work, and the client wanted rooms moved in order to make room for a garage.

This Philadelphia home is absolutely stunning with furnishings from the client’s former home and some of those from the former owner. The dining table was mauve and now dons a fresh coat of blue lacquer.

You owe it to yourself to read the entire story.  ENJOY!
