This week we are to finish Phase 1 of a month long commission — it’s been a blessing and fun because of several key finishes. We return for Phase 2 in about a month or so. (I’ll be sure to share pics when all the furniture and such is in place.) In the meantime, I went on a consult recently for The Grand Bohemian Hotel here in Orlando. We’ve previously done their Wine Room — our claim to fame is that the first person to reserve it was Beyonce.
Anyhoo, I spied several gorgeous gold leafed ceilings in the hotel that had a nice touch — a sort of “flame” effect made with the combination of the gold leaf with the burnt red base. I thought it was a great idea to share. Here are the pics:
The Kessler Rotunda. You can spy a gold leaf ceiling as you walk in.
A full shot of one of the ceilings. You can see the "flame" effect around the rim. It's very effective when you are looking up at it from the entrance.
A close-up shot is always nice...
Here's a smaller ceiling over the Lounge area. You can see the effect is now within the dome as opposed to the surrounding trim.
What do you think? I thought it was hot! (Yeeeeesss, another pun this week. Maybe I should stop with those…) Have a wonderful weekend!
