Antiques Dealer and Designer, Richard Shapiro,
has struck a beautiful balance in his residence in Malibu.
Pieces from around the globe ... old and new, ornate and primitive...
all coexist peacefully.
all coexist peacefully.
I am especially impressed by Mr. Shapiro's light hand with the antiques and decorative objects he used – with access to so many pieces, he could have easily filled every nook and cranny. Instead, he wisely chose to leave much negative space throughout giving a relaxed, unpretentious air to the home.
— Beautifully curated.
P.S. I shared the living room of this home last year if you missed that
– or would like to visit it again, see link below (I'm still coveting the fireplace):
