meet a dado of dark bottle green,
which in turn meets a rug of the
same tone. A bottle-green cornice
stripe runs about the top of the
room, and a barrel chair of mod

green piped with lighter green. The
sofa is black, and white metal Ia
bles with glass tops, one chair with
white frame and white jardinieres
holding growing plants add smart
touches. Mirrored panels set about
the walls add an illusion of light
