New House Near Washington, D.C.

<div class="byline"> <div class="contributors"> Interior designer Thad Hayes spent about nine months detailing and designing the entire interior of this new house near Washington, D.C. Elegant and stately, lots of arches and bay windows and light-infused spaces.<br /><br />Some time ago I featured another house decorated by Thad Hayes which you can see by clicking <a href="http://inspiracionline.blogspot.com/2010/07/tudor-revival-residence-in-texas.html">here</a>.<br /><span class="c"><span></span></span><span class="c"><span><br /></span></span> </div> </div><div color="transparent" style="border: medium none ; overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="featureimg" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2008/12/hayes/arsl01_hayes.jpg" style="width: 600px; height: 497px;" /><br />A soft palette was used throughout the house. A circa 1820 Japanese screen hangs on the living room wall.<br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2008/12/hayes/arsl02_hayes.jpg" style="width: 601px; height: 774px;" /><br />Golden Sunburst mirror above the fireplace. The French bronze fire screen is circa 1930s.<br /><div style="border: medium none ; overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2008/12/hayes/arsl03_hayes.jpg" style="width: 601px; height: 498px;" /><br />Two 1920s Moroccan ottomans share the sitting room with sofas and club chairs designed by Hayes. The lamp is a converted 19th-century English vase.<br /><br /></div><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2008/12/hayes/arsl04_hayes.jpg" style="width: 600px; height: 684px;" /><br />George III shield-back dining chairs.

A banquette runs along a wall of the conservatory.<br /><div style="border: medium none ; overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2008/12/hayes/arsl07_hayes.jpg" style="width: 602px; height: 499px;" /><br />Joan Miró’s <em>Femme Mangeant Une Pomme</em>, 1931, hangs over the master bedroom fireplace.<br /><div style="border: medium none ; overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"><br />Hope you enjoyed this tour.

Tudor Revival Residence in Texas

<p><br /></p> <div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;">Hello, readers! Happy it's Friday? Yes, so am I. We are going all elegant and luxurious today. This brick-and-stone Tudor Revival residence in Austin was built in 1927 and has been restored and furnished by interior designer Thad Hayes. Some of the original rooms were enormous and had to be cut down some sizes. Can you believe the original dining room seated two hundred people? Now, all rooms have at least two exposures, so they have lots of light. Let's tour this house which combines modern and classic lines.<br /></div><br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl01_hayes.jpg" style="width: 551px; height: 726px;" /><br />For the living room, Thad Hayes painted the ceiling boards “to brighten the space and give a sense of the structure,” he says. The large metal chandelier adds “a rugged feeling appropriate for a room in Texas.” A carved stone fireplace dominates one end and casement windows on either side,<div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl02_hayes.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 609px;" /><br />An Imogen Cunningham photograph is by a circa 1940 console.<div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl03_hayes.jpg" style="width: 550px; height: 457px;" /><br /><em>Untitled</em>, 1997, by Adam Fuss is behind a pair of T. H. Robsjohn-Gibbings armchairs, which, like the sofa, are covered in Edelman leather. The living room’s circa 1940 French low table accompanies American floor lamps from the same era.<br /><div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><br /></div><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl04_hayes.jpg" style="width: 550px; height: 456px;" /><br />A set of Samuel Marx chairs, chosen for their “simple and elegant form,” surrounds the Hayes designed dining table. A circa 1935 chandelier from Italy echoes the chairs’ curvilinear shape. Chocolate-brown velvet draperies frame the dining room’s three windows. <div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl05_hayes.jpg" style="width: 550px; height: 457px;" /><br />“The soft, cool colors create a restful atmosphere,” Hayes says of the master bedroom, which features a pair of circa 1950 Piero Fornasetti landscape panels. Flanking the teak bed, which was designed by Hayes, are circa 1940s French lamps<div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><br /></div><br /></div><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl06_hayes.jpg" style="width: 550px; height: 457px;" /><br />The wife’s bath is “the most whimsical room in the house,” says Hayes. “With its black and white marble, reminiscent of a 1940s bath, it has a glamorous, Hollywood quality.” Russel Wright lamps and a 1999 painting by Fuss rest on the vanity. The fish vase is from Steuben.<div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br /><br /></div><img alt="" src="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/images/architects/2001/07/hayes/arsl07_hayes.jpg" style="width: 550px; height: 457px;" /><br />“Every room in the house has two or three exposures, which makes it more open to the landscape than most houses built at that time.” To enhance the connection, he added more French doors.<div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br />Photography by Scott Frances<br /></div>All images and information from <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/">Architectural Digest</a>.<br /></div></div>
