Something Resplendent


I stumbled upon a great house design today. Just the name alone makes this house sound special. the Chatteau Melliant is a luxurious European home that has about anything you could think of. It has almost 6000 square feet and a garage that could hold all of a family's cars. This plan had me hooked as soon as I saw the picture looking at the stairs and balcony in the foyer. The classy curves of this home could keep me intrigued for hours.

The Grand Room has to potential of being the leader of the home. The way the room was decorated in the photograph is only one of many techniques I can think of. Having a coffered ceiling like that and the feature of a fireplace looks exquisite with many other designs. There is so many things that can be done it would be hard to make a wrong decision.

The Kitchen is another area that caught my attention. I loved the island with the step up from the eating bar. The particular colors chosen were not quite what I am looking for. I have aways preferred dark marble and light cabinetry. I found www.marble.com that gave me a good idea of how i would mix the two together. This Kitchen's design is great for people that need storage space but not cabinets that wrap around the whole room. This keeps it broken up with good-sized cabinets in each corner.

The rest of the home was a great design but it these two rooms were what caught my attention. I suggest taking a good look at it and seeing how you would decorate this house if you had the chance.
