The Chantilly’s interiors are neo-classical. French windows in the living room and dining room give a refreshing view of lush greenery and let in abundant sunlight. The soothing mint color is repeated in the curtains and furniture covers.

The sleek line of the furnishings, which call to mind the stylized, streamlined creations of French ingénue Philippe Starck, are conspicuous in the chair spines and shiny modern appliances and fixtures of the kitchen. Finally, the bedroom itself is one cozy blend of old and new, with a four-poster bed dominating and complementing simple racks and cabinets like a king over his advisers.
