The dining room and sitting room of a six-bedroom, seven-bathroom home in Paramus get a fresh new look. A statement-making update was in order for this 10,800-square-foot house, which made a record as having been sold for the highest price ever in Paramus. Outfitting the formal dining room and transforming a nearby sitting room into a Champagne room was the project of Britney Glass, who was hired to bring in trappings appropriate to this $2.5 million custom-built residence. "The floor plan is open layout, and the client really wanted these rooms to make a bold statement, as they are the first rooms you see upon entering their home," says Glass whose company, The Glass Touch Interiors, specializes in bringing together the opulent furnishings and accessories preferred by her affluent clients. "When I first started with the dining room, it was very traditional," she said. "Their style is very different from traditional." She worked on the rooms with the wife, whose tastes she described as high-end and glamorous. Where the previous owners had an Asian lacquered dining table and matching furnishings with hand-painted scenes, Glass went for "moody and luxurious," selecting embroidered fabrics, formal woods and metallic finishes. In furnishing the dining room, which has large marble columns at its entrance, Glass focused on elegance with appealing textures and controlled shimmer from top to bottom. The furnishings have a golden touch. Two tall display cabinets are trimmed in gold-leaf. On the opposite side of the room, the buffet cabinet has gilded wooden crossbar accents over antique mirrored glass on its sides and doors. The wooden dining table's cabriole legs are accented with detailing the color of aged gold. Glass frequently incorporates mirrored and metallic elements in her projects. "It brings more light into the space," she says. "Light bounces off the metallics and reflects the light from anywhere in the room." This effect not only makes a room brighter, but can make it feel more open and spacious as well, she says. She had gold foil wallpaper applied to the ceiling where it softly enhances the light from two crystal chandeliers. To accent a series of seven tall casement windows at the back of the room, she used gold-tone satin window treatments with an overlay of sheer gray mesh. The decorative draperies hang in four panels, two at either side of the row of windows and two more flanking the three center windows. "The satin gives them a color that matches the gold tones in the room, and the mesh over it tones the color down," Glass explained. "Since the drapery isn't functional, I wanted to make sure it was really interesting. It softens the windows as well." Another feature of the room that Glass wanted to shine is the embroidered fabric on each of the eight chair backs surrounding the dining table. To add softness underfoot, she used an iridescent silver rug with a textural damask pattern. "I wanted it to be muted. I didn't want it to overshadow anything else in the room," she said of the rug. "It's a neutral rug but with a lot of texture." In the Champagne room, the floor is a work of art. Glass commissioned a decorative painter to create a solid layer on top of the wooden floor and then faux finish it to resemble chocolate-colored marble with silver and mocha veining. "It's a whole process," she said. Instead of the slab pieces she would have gotten with real marble, the floor is solid and seamless with a reflective high-gloss finish. The room's floral print wallpaper picks up on the floor's coloring as well as the white and silver elements Glass selected. The subtle metallics pick up on the silver veining within the floor. An arm chair has the fluffy touch of Tibetan fur on its seat, with solid-color linen upholstery above it and a back featuring cowhide with the silver stripes of a metallic zebra print. The intricate fretwork on a white chest of drawers has the mirrored effect of silvered eglomise peaking out from beneath. The room is slightly recessed, a step down from the main floor. It had the challenge of slightly rounded walls. "The rooms are not symmetrical," Glass said of the house, built in 2005. "Nothing is a straight wall. Additionally, the window in the sitting room is off center. Glass created a floor plan where the furnishings are arranged to give the room balance. She dressed the windows in brown silk. While the room brings in traditional elements in the cabriole legs of its furnishings and a shapely tufted sofa with heavy bullion fringe, the overall styling is modern and contemporary, Glass says. "When you look at it you don't think, oh, that's an old-world room," she says. What they renovated The dining room and sitting room of a custom-built six-bedroom, seven-bathroom home in Paramus.
