The House in Good Taste
·
Elsie De Wolfe
166
The
roof
garden
of
the
Colony
Club
is
latticed
in
a
simple
design
we
all
know.
This
is
lattice,
not
trellis,
and
in
no
way
should
be
confounded
with
the
trellis
room
on
the
entrance
floor.
This
white-painted
lattice
covers
the
wall
space.
Growing
vines
are
placed
along
the
walls
and
clamber
to
the
beams.
The
glass
ceiling
is
supported
by
white
beams.
There
are
always
blossoming
flowers
and
singing
birds
in
this
room.
The
effect
is
springlike
and
joyous
on
the
bleakest
winter
day.
The
room
is
heated
by
two
huge
stoves
of
green
Majolica
brought
over
from
Germany
when
other
heating
systems
failed.
Much
of
the
furniture
is
covered
with
a
grape-patterned
chintz
and
a
green
and
white
striped
linen.
The
ceiling
lights
are
hidden
in
huge
bunches
of
pale
green
grapes.
I
recently
planned
a
most
beautiful
trellis
room
for
a
New
York
City
house.
The
room
is
long
and
narrow,
with
walls
divided
into
panels
by
upright
classic
columns.
The
lower
wall
space
between
the
columns
is
covered
with
a
simple
green
lattice,
and
the
upper
part
is
filled
with
little
mirrors
framed
in
narrow
green
moldings,
arranged
in
a
conventional
design
which
follows
the
line
of
the
trellis.
One
end
of
the
room
is
made
up
of
two
narrow
panels
of
the
trellis
with
a
fireplace
between.
On
the
opposite
wall
the
middle
panel
is
a
background
for
a
delightful
wall
fountain.
The
fretwork
of
mirrors
which
takes
the
place
of
frieze
in
the
room
is
continued
all
around
the
four
walls.
One
of
the
walls
is
filled
entirely
with
French
doors
of
plate
glass,
beneath
the
mirrored
frieze;
the
other
long
wall
has
the
broad,
central
panel
cut
into
two
doors
of
plate
glass,
and
stone
benches
placed
against
the
two
trellised
panels
flanking
the
doors.
The
ceiling
is
divided
into
three
great
panels
of
trellis,
and
from
each
of
the
three
panels
a
lantern
is
suspended.
