FALL FOLIAGE PANORAMIC MURAL
Inspired by the panoramic landscapes of the early 1800's, the murals were designed for a 360 degree visual experience.
The existing wood paneling serves as a transitory viewing element, similar to a garden architecture frame of a gazebo or pergola, to the landscape beyond. A fall color palette and concept was developed with Laura Gills Interior Design to coincide with her new interior furnishings plan.
Inspired by the grounds of the estate, sentimental elements from the client were incorporated into the menagerie including her three German shepherds, horses, duck pond, cardinals, and Japanese-inspired bridge.
The paneled ceiling was given proper prominence with a delicate Fleur-de-Lis-inspired edge pattern and textural old world finish.
The overall experience is an all-encompassing panoramic of fall beauty integrated into the interiors.
