Tonal Entrance

This tonal entrance by designer Catherine Olley reflects her belief that even transitional spaces deserve thoughtful attention, and that interior design is, at its best, a process of collecting. Known for her layered, lived-in aesthetic, Catherine brings the same considered approach to this space.
