How’s it Hangin’
Art elevates a room and expresses its own unique identity. I love the look of an oversized abstract painting surrounded by an eclectic mix of smalls including old landscapes, charcoal nudes, and black and white photography. alexiswalter.com

A marble-top console makes a cool alternative to a bar cart, particularly one with a drawer or two for storing cocktail napkins, bar tools and assorted accoutrements. Top it with a large tray to corral silver, crystal and Bakelite barware for order and cohesion. chairish.com
