Editor's Note

This Tuscan-inspired design works perfectly in large foyers or open-concept transition spaces. Pair the heavy architectural elements like the stone arch with delicate wrought iron lighting and warm walnut-toned furniture. Balance the height of the wood-beamed ceilings by placing a low-profile patterned rug and a central floral arrangement to draw the eye downward. The combination of rough masonry and polished wood creates a sophisticated Old World texture. To keep the space inviting, ensure the warm ochre walls are complemented by soft ambient lighting from tiered chandeliers. Regularly dust the intricate carvings of the frames carefully.
