Theres no flash to splash here.

But thats not to say that things arent pretty sumptuous.

Yet for all the internationalism, it all comes back to England for Graf.

I didnt want to have colorful rooms.

I wanted to have something white, something peaceful.

English decor style uses a lot of white with black doors, in ebony or mahogany.

Thats the first thing you think of when you think of English decoration.

Truth is, when it comes to Graffs vision for At Sloane, he thought abouteverything.

Those doors, for instance: Some dont open because he wanted absolute symmetry in the rooms.

Of course, inevitably, the conversation led to which is his favorite room.

Perhaps more surprisingly, he also adores the most minute room.

(Having seen it, I can vouch that it was absolutely charming.)
