Woman's Cave

My “woman’s cave” was inspired by a desire to design a space especially for women: one exuding feminity and luxury. Unlike the proverbial “man cave,” a woman’s cave nurtures its occupant, allowing her to reenergize, recharge and relax. Sparingly sprinkled raspberry tones subtly energize the room’s cream palette to supply an invigorating aura. Plush textural fabrics throughout the space create a feast for the eyes. Significantly, the room’s furnishings reflect the feminine physique, with all upholstered pieces shaped curvaceously and feeling soft to the touch. A woman will rest in the sumptuous ivory wool Chippendale-style sofa, which pays homage to the rich English history of the mansion. Alternatively, two dear friends can enjoy the warmth of a crackling fire relaxing in the tufted wing chair and petite lounge chair. There, they can place their tea cups atop the round ottoman upholstered in a cut velvet damask fabric. Completing the feminine ambience, show-stopping silk-embroidered floral panels with spectacular hues of raspberry and citrus frame the stained glass windows of the woman’s cave.
