We chose two different shades of it for those wide, horizontal stripes railroading the length of the space. They really pull you into the apartment. We used a Venetian plaster technique to give the walls texture and substance. They help make the foyer feel like a space you want to be in, not just pass through. If the couple is having a dinner party with an overflow crowd, they could rent two round tables, cover them with pretty tablecloths, and line them up here. Photographer: Lucas Allen
