    Project: Living/Dining Sunroom


    Designer Lee W. Robinson paired Palm Beach pizzazz with practicality in this striking addition to a half-century-old home in Rolling Fields. A rarely used porch was demolished to make way for this versatile, beautifully sunlit room.










      

    “To fill the room with light, we reused the windows from the old porch across one entire wall and added a cupola over the dining area and a skylight above the bar.”


    “White Carrera marble was paired with Black Absolute granite for the flooring. The three-inch granite border defines the space. To keep the room comfortable in winter, the floor is heated.”










      
     “The Louis Vuitton-style fabric on the dining chairs is actually a custom Sunbrella carrying the owner’s initials.”  “Part of the room’s glamour comes from its rich regency color scheme, featuring black and white with coral-red and yellow accents, and use of a classic Greek key design on the couch and window treatments.”
