Rose Anne de Pampelonne

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Going through my files I came across <a href="http://www.roseannedepampelonne.com/">Rose Anne de Pampelonne</a> Parisian limestone mansion built in 1900's and redesigned by the designer who is also a baroness. The multi floor mansion that she shares with her bank-president and baron husband Bruno, was featured in Elle Decor a little while ago and has since been in my files because of its eclecticism and use of different hues. Asian antiques and porcelain, indigenous fabrics, sculptural antique fishing baskets hung as art, African mask, velvet and brocade fabric are gracefully combined in harmony layering this sumptuous home.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT73Pl73XM8TEWn-sTIHTDgPhtHJkA_GL48vyaunDrOKKeklCKSI3UvfeoDNtLZWphhfAyx8r2lngULi1OROfCiKkyvm7JKYUpBnobaiD4w7XdIPDVcjhS8yY3ivCJUN8uFt7vKzX-7so/s1600-h/ED0408_pampelonne_07.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447576019981495442" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT73Pl73XM8TEWn-sTIHTDgPhtHJkA_GL48vyaunDrOKKeklCKSI3UvfeoDNtLZWphhfAyx8r2lngULi1OROfCiKkyvm7JKYUpBnobaiD4w7XdIPDVcjhS8yY3ivCJUN8uFt7vKzX-7so/s400/ED0408_pampelonne_07.jpg" style="height: 530px; width: 450px;" width="420" /></a><br />Above and below images of the gorgeous stunning dinning room</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG7X0OT1adYqx_gvhaJug1QC8DIKzI83LlhaYCBYQOuEx368K-gzaz05EZy6NFKOHfQUgBiYTv4jk5Bn2WPsspMAQwChtoucXNJaQm0o1m2PKU47oO_vY2zSgEKI88wf7YTuCgqRmw-So/s1600-h/ED0408_pampelonne_08.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447576021467448866" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG7X0OT1adYqx_gvhaJug1QC8DIKzI83LlhaYCBYQOuEx368K-gzaz05EZy6NFKOHfQUgBiYTv4jk5Bn2WPsspMAQwChtoucXNJaQm0o1m2PKU47oO_vY2zSgEKI88wf7YTuCgqRmw-So/s400/ED0408_pampelonne_08.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 530px; width: 450px;" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3UvtxzPo-d9NtKdccHxYyftYXa719QxtIWfLcUpBvPmxXbu77OTKdGAB4Te9QlIf5psoH_2d2dlYK2J9vcTxbrcq3VLNmyy52hUnqFZ20SHZtkbto90kMC1KTE0CubHD1aTxSQ-u1hBQ/s1600-h/ED0408_pampelonne_12.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447575912875287666" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3UvtxzPo-d9NtKdccHxYyftYXa719QxtIWfLcUpBvPmxXbu77OTKdGAB4Te9QlIf5psoH_2d2dlYK2J9vcTxbrcq3VLNmyy52hUnqFZ20SHZtkbto90kMC1KTE0CubHD1aTxSQ-u1hBQ/s400/ED0408_pampelonne_12.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 530px; width: 450px;" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSj0AsiWva5rT5zdM7PsmM_czVprN0Y9HLXdj_zm4et8e038g7AaniEm9mgWPlgBVj-PqZy2s80Rdi778swu7w7dNqaGlIenLcj63xVV2O_xamHmXJQXFU3Mse0HAltg2mwl0PMWFy36E/s1600-h/ED0408_pampelonne_06.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447575911483530098" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSj0AsiWva5rT5zdM7PsmM_czVprN0Y9HLXdj_zm4et8e038g7AaniEm9mgWPlgBVj-PqZy2s80Rdi778swu7w7dNqaGlIenLcj63xVV2O_xamHmXJQXFU3Mse0HAltg2mwl0PMWFy36E/s400/ED0408_pampelonne_06.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 530px; width: 450px;" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1OOht7Tz3oXAeMwO79ZoRBKcH6RuRUNc8HuiGh8Cv0cTMrfNjW4ZDQiDMR72OpR-EUOCew8FxZmBpRsiUNqjR92XvjuYlHrwzh0DHuPiCLgKPF_7fiG34vUImG5GZMfRbCwZd3A2XKd4/s1600-h/ED0408_pampelonne_01.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447575897030846834" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1OOht7Tz3oXAeMwO79ZoRBKcH6RuRUNc8HuiGh8Cv0cTMrfNjW4ZDQiDMR72OpR-EUOCew8FxZmBpRsiUNqjR92XvjuYlHrwzh0DHuPiCLgKPF_7fiG34vUImG5GZMfRbCwZd3A2XKd4/s400/ED0408_pampelonne_01.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 530px; width: 450px;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Rose Anne de Pampelonne placed an elegant 1940s relic bed with leafy silvered legs and a neo-Baroque headboard upholstered in silk velvet and brocade in her living room.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">For a long, long time American Design has been influenced in great amount by the English, but lately I've been happily enjoying the growing influence of French design and architecture. From a stunning historical Houston, Texas house that has been transformed into a breathtaking French Chateau look-a-like (see the article in <a href="http://www.housebeautiful.com/">House Beautiful</a> "Blue as a Titian." If I hadn't read the article I would've sworn this house was a remodeled chateau in the southern France)-to more sleek interpretations of pied-à-terres in the City. This sophisticated influence distends itself from the more Provencal style with an <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jacques-Grange-Interiors-Pierre-Passebon/dp/2080301128">a-la-Jacques-Grange</a> approach. In this month's <a href="http://www.pointclickhome.com/elle_decor">Elle Decor</a> issue the house of Interior Designer <a href="http://www.anguscaravelli.com/">Paula Caravelli</a> also frames a very French continental influence.
