Krolik runs her
table-top business, Chateau X, from her white-lacquered desk, perched
at the top of the stairs. From here, she can see out the eight-foot
windows in the living room. "When I sit up here, I feel like
I'm outside," she says. Her desk chair is the Herman Miller Aeron,
from W.B. Wood (sadly, it doesn't come in white); her lamp is Belux,
from Lee's Studio.
