This might sound off the wall, but… in your beautiful book, Learning to See, page 92 shows an 18th century French table with an oak storage cube under it at the side of a bed. Could you envision a much longer table in a family room to act as the stand for a flat screen tv with a wider chest or 2 chests underneath it to house the video components? Or the Tv could be on the wall above it. I love that look, but the room needs to be very utilitarian. Thanks for any input. Randi

Randi, I think that what you’re seeing in that bedroom is a concept. One that can be translated into any space. The important thing is a balance of scale and a very exuberant traditional table with a very straight line contemporary piece. You need the ying and yang to make that statement. Whether it is an old Jacobean table with a very modern cube or a very slick modern table with something traditional tucked underneath it. it’s up to you how you want the elements to read in the space. Let me know what your choice is!
