Washington Design Center’s “Jewel Tones of Design” DreamHome



“Jewel Tones of Design” is the theme of the Washington Design Center’s 2011 DreamHome, which opens this week. Eight designers partnered with local jewelers and chose a jewelry piece to inspire a room design.
Zoe Feldman of Zoe Feldman Designs, who decorated the master bedroom, says she was “drawn to the modern, understated elegance” of a ring from Shah & Shah. In her room, a subtle and soothing palette of gold, silver and gray is punctuated with yellow textiles and black-painted furniture and artwork.

Another room not to miss: the sculptural courtyard by J.D. Ireland, with hand-painted fabric wall panels and slate herringbone patterned floors.
