A lustrous blue bookshelf and inset vermillion-hued sofa add blocks of color. Mirrored walls expand the space ad infinitum. "Every time someone enters the apartment," Rossi reports, "it's the same reaction-wow."

Lights Fantastic
Lighting sculptor Stephen White constructed more than 2,000 works over his six-decade career, at least one a staggering 18 feet tall, yet his meticulous scrapbooks contain scant evidence of public recognition.

CUTTING A RUG
Even during Sweden's famously long and bitter-cold winter, the dining room at Beata Heuman’s 18th-century family farmhouse bursts with life thanks to the hand-painted mural of tulips, lilies, dahlias, and fruit trees—all a nod to flora on the property grounds, much of it planted by her mom.
