The tall, mullioned, and transformed studio window, which has its original diamond-paned leaded lights, provides a backdrop to the composer’s Steinway grand piano, which is the room’s primary focus. Simple stile and rail wainscot paneling and a new chimneypiece take their cue from the English Arts & Crafts architect C.F.A. Voysey. At the same time, the brass chandeliers, which we also designed, were modeled on an original of the period seen in London. We made several minor alterations to the plan. Still, we completely redesigned the internal finishes with the notion that the space would function both as a music studio for the owner and as a venue for salon functions organized by the Derriere Guard.
