All the textures of the moment - the crusty stone of old statuary, the rigor of iron, the satin finish of gilt - were woven through this summer living room design by Darryl Savage and Anthony Awkard for the 1995 Talbot County Historical Society Show House in Easton, Maryland. Most of the pieces hinted at history, like Awkard's coffee table, forged from two newel posts with curving rails, and a round table sliced from a fluted column. Holding it all together: celadon walls, white piqué slipcovers (inspired by an Isaac Mizrahi tennis skirt), and a river of sea grass underfoot.
| "We're not afraid to reinvent antiques. We had an elaborately gilded French table that we painted the color of stone. It really brought out the delicacy of the piece." |  |
