Cozy paneled rooms...

     This is the time of year when we are all looking to find a place to curl up, read a book and enjoy the warmth of a cozy space. More and more I've been loving the look of paneled rooms. There is something incredibly classic and timeless about them. You see them painted in an assortment of rich blues, greens, reds, and even blacks along with the traditional stains. I was in Chicago over the weekend looking for just such a place to have a late lunch and get out from the windy cold city streets. I remembered having eaten at the Ralph Lauren Restaurant right off Michigan Ave a couple of years ago during the heat of the summer and thinking it was exactly that kind of space. I decided to go to the bar to catch a bite and glass of wine, and it was much more than your typical restaurant bar. It was the type of space that made you want to linger for a while.
More like a fab library than a bar!
Love the photographs on the bookcase...
 I love these painted paneled spaces; the colors are so rich looking. What a great butler's pantry, the blue is perfection...
