EACH DESIGN ELEMENT has been thoughtfully chosen with the park environment in mind. Hand-rubbed metal finishes, hardwood floors, granite counters, hand-crafted ceramics, polished stonework, hand-forged ironwork, and matte patina finishes with slight variations create a subtle richness of textures that is timeless, like the park that inspires such choices. Together with high ceilings, tall baseboards, and spacious screened porches, the effect created is a refined, organic elegance that becomes more beautiful with time.
