The elements are more vertical and just a bit less lean-y. Though the railing is undeniably beautiful, it's the one thing, in the context of the rest of the building, that jars a bit for me....<br /><br />Also, I wish the furniture used in this grand space was en suite. It looks a bit random. Oh, I do seem to be in a fussy mood! ;)Stephiliushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08562830870365561419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28651976363618994.post-68248875649318558732014-05-13T09:30:50.597-04:002014-05-13T09:30:50.597-04:00Columnist, you're right!

Details of furniture misplacement drive me nuts. I'm forever trying to get housekeeping here to put back furniture exactly where it should be after they've been cleaning. It's a losing battle!columnisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764365428633038329noreply@blogger.com
