HITTING A HOME RUN REQUIRES A BIG SWING.

T he icon Julia Child said, “Drama is very important in life: You have to come on with a bang. You never want to go out with a whimper. Everything can have dra- ma if it’s done right.” Child likely meant that even a pancake can be served with panache, but creating drama in the home is just as essential off the plate. When you serve up space with drama, you are creating a lasting emotional experience for yourself and those with whom you share your home. Perhaps it could be the choice of a theatrical light fixture that draws the eye while also casting alluring shadow
patterns that change the feel of the room. Or maybe you want to crown your vanity with a faucet that feels as grand as a tiara. Bringing the drama could even mean introducing elements that amplify your main design gesture in a given space. But if you ever feel outmatched by the process of decision-making, it is never too late to learn— according to our Favorite French chef. “The more you know, the more you can create,” Child reminds. “There’s no end to imagination in the kitchen.” And as the following pages will show—there also need be no end to imagination when it comes to the bath either. ■
