and leather chairs, the leather woven in strips, which
were designed by Ross Littell in 1968. Together with the
tall 1940���s shagreen lamps, these pieces announce an
assertive modernist note in a house that is otherwise all
Palladian with an interesting amalgamation of Europe
and Asia that reminds me of Lutyens.
The double height living room is the Meade House���s
undoubted tour de force. Its upper and lower sets of
windows are satisfyingly mullioned. The walls are tinted
a delicate, pale stone color using a French plaster
