Six fabled designers of traditionalist interiors talk about how their style and approach has responded to the times, while remaining, for the most part, consistent.

Years and years ago, when I still formulating my design aesthetic, I stumbled across a magazine article that featured Balderbrae, the summer home of David Easton and his partner, artist James Steinmeyer. The home was large, but consisted of just a few rooms - a living and dining room, master bedroom, and a study, along with two large porches or loggias.

Treillage: French, from Old French treille, bower supported by trelliswork I love the way trelliswork or lattice makes a room instantly look like an elegant conservatory.Treillage is French for trelliswork although the meaning is more complex.
