It is interesting and proves the power of color in a room where everything is just so, in perfect harmony-the color makes it a symphony-No wonder it attracted you so.Have I missed the Darlington Hall in a post? Seems there is a snippet or two, must investigate.

Too many fall short.

Too many people purchase historic homes and then subject them to modern renovations which result in anachronistic disasters.
