Starting Point: She began by upholstering the headboard – custom-made to fit beneath the windows – in Deco Flower, a fabric with a soft red background.

Master Bedroom
From There: A couple of red chairs Richardson had owned for years perked up when paired with a leggy white ottoman clad in a light botanical print, Charlton Floral Vine.

Next: She countered the swirly florals with a few hard-edged lines: a geometric patchwork quilt, a tickingbacked desk chair, and pillows in various stripes. “I love to combine stripes of different widths,” the designer explained.
Then: After selecting the fabrics Richardson realized the room needed a touch more blue. So she painted additional stripes on the floor. “It creates the feeling of walking on water,” she said.

Finally: To cement the master bedroom’s connection with the house beyond, Richardson extended the red into a hallway that leads to the powder room. She took advantage of the wide corridor’s wasted space by installing closets lacquered in Burnt Peanut Red by Benjamin Moore.
