New Classic Interiors
"American designers have always absorbed and reinterpreted influences from abroad to create a distinctly Yankee sense of style. So what happens when a designer born and raised in one of the most style-conscious countries in the world comes to live, love, and decorate on the plains of the Midwest? When that designer is the Italian-born Alessandra Branca, it means that the glamorous vocabulary of the old world-Italian luxuriousness, English country comforts, French sensuality- gets a healthy dash of new World energy and practicality. (The life-force blonde is not a mother of three for nothing.) Whatever the mix of styles or jolt of colors, Branca-made spaces always rely on classic underpinnings that include custom upholstery with suave antiques, hand-painted wallpaper, hand woven floor coverings (natural abaca fiber is a big favorite), and fine art that is big on charm but low on pomp. There are always touches of eye-opening wit, too, like the surprise of an old-fashioned chandelier encased in a giant transparent lamp shade or walls painted in sassy shade of Schiaparelli pink. The bottom line? Pretty rooms for modern living, 24-7."
