Natural Textures | Cheryl Tague’s seashell collection, original clay fireplace tiles and the Iranian tribal rug hail from various parts of the world, yet their simple lines and compatible colors forge a tranquil setting for the living room.
Opening with Grace | The polished oak floor creates a welcoming feel that flows uninterrupted from room to room. Lit by the 1940s Italian chandelier, the dining table comes from a Paris flea market.
Spanish Heritage | The stucco exterior and red-tiled roof are appropriate to the circa-1920s Spanish Colonial Revival townhouse. Landscaping by Mariani Gardens, Armonk.
Simplicity Reigns | British artist Tim Woolcock’s Coastal Path hangs above a late 18th-century chest topped by rock crystal candlesticks made from lamps found on London’s King’s Road.
History Lesson | A goatskin-upholstered Soane chair fronts the Louis XV-style desk accessorized with a Khmer pot and Buddha lugged home from Cambodia.
Room for Two | The rug was designed by Cheryl Tague and hand-loomed in Wisconsin. She upgraded her son’s pine trundle bed with paint and glaze, and framed the 18th-century photos of Pompeii in limed oak.
Cozy Elegance | From the antique French bedspread to the tufted English sofa and handwoven rush carpet, the master bedroom is “quintessential Tague.”
