Look at the valances! They are beautiful in pumpkin velvet, swagged over iron rods. The walls were faux painted by Chet Baker in a burnt orange. The fireplace "faux" finish of limestone was designed by Robin Stater and painted by Linda Newman, as well as the entry foyer with its dramatic arch. Leather and fabric sofas sit on a Tufenkian carpet, while a square map table centers the room.

A Washington D.C., executive and his charming West coast partner owns this beautiful "Chateau" style home. Their mountain retreat offers them great times: skiing and her passion, "trail running."
