As much as I love a Palm Beach inspired home, it was refreshing to open up the May House Beautiful and find an elegantly masculine home oozing with soul and personality. Not only was I drooling over each of the spaces, Stan Topol is a charming interior design veteran with smart quips and great advice...
"I don't like Sheetrock, and white walls are sterile. This black patent wallpaper is glamorous and makes the walls disappear." says Stan. Glamorous they certainly are, they also provide a stunning backdrop for the white matted photographs, as well trinkets on the shelves.
Stan's office is truly one of the gems of the house. The light stone floors against the glossy wallpaper and antique furniture really lends itself to a feeling of ease and comfort.
Seemingly a master at accessorizing, Mr. Topol says "My coffee table may look cluttered. But, if you look down on it, you'll see theres plenty of space for your coffee or tea." And- its true. His surfaces are well adorned with things that have defined his life, yet still have great functionality.
