White custom-designed the sofa — which pulls out to serve as
Vargas's bed — to fit the mirror's curve. "Because the space
is so small, a daybed would take up too muich room," White says.
"I wanted him to be able to have friends over for a drink."
Artist Clare Graham, another old friend of White's, fashioned the
mirror out of 17,000 pop-tops strung together with wire; the whole
surface ripples in the breeze like a metallic pelt. Knock-off swing-arm
lamps anchor two columns — cribbed from an eighteenth-century
engraving and Xeroxed to a gargantuan scale — to the wall. "These
make the ceiling look taller," White says. He bought synthetic
white tiger off the bolt and had it bordered in a strip of flame-colored
carpet. |
