Indigo, a Decorating Classic

In Traditional Home's Hamptons designer showhouse on the beach in Montauk, New York, designer Amanda Nisbet drenched walls, floors, ceiling and furnishings in indigo to strike the right dramatic note for a space that was otherwise, hmm, not terribly interesting. Too much of a good thing? No way. The abundance of indigo compensates for a lack of architectural detailing and transforms this room into a moody hangout for watching old movies. Indigo over the walls, the floor, and most of the furnishings wraps the room in an especially rich and unexpected cocoon.
