LIGHT HOUSE

BILLIARD ROOM

“It’s got a Roaring Twenties–like parlor feel,” Annie Kern says. Chairs: Esperance Gallery, in Le Gracieux fabric. Sconces: Visual Comfort & Co. Wallcovering: Mulberry Home.

MUSIC ROOM

A large pendant with a custom shade in Jacques Bouvet et Cie. fabric adds “drama to the barreled ceiling,” Kern says. Paint: Alabaster (ceiling), Sherwin-Williams. Wallcovering: Phillip Jeffries.

IT’S RARE FOR WINDOWS TO INSPIRE a color palette, but in this Kansas City, Missouri, home, they’re equivalent to a Grant Wood painting, complete with stained glass motifs that summon wheat sheafs. Reportedly custom made by Indiana’s Kokomo Opalescent Glass Co., they perfectly suit the home, which was built in 1913 by a Frank Lloyd Wright protégé in a vernacular that can best be described as a prairie-style-Art-Nouveau mashup.
