In a home surrounded by greenery, and structured with nature in mind, Rachel Schwartz takes a minimal approach in highlighting the earthy elements which move from without to within in this environmentally aware property in Gladwyne, PA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Varying stone surface textures ground us in the solid, while woodgrain adds a softer touch that speaks with the leaves outside. Blacks, whites, and neutrals compose a balance of warmth and contrast through furniture which sits harmoniously in its habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
