Interior Designer Loi Thai's Home

    Who loves Edwardian houses? Come along then and let's visit interior designer Loi Thai's 1900s townhouse in Bethesda, Maryland. A white, cream and pale grey palette with an assortment of painted 18th and 19th century Swedish furniture make up this light and serene home.

    In the foyer, a floor mirror and a Swedish clock both stand 8 feet tall, accentuating the ceiling height.

    The library, which is situated between the formal living room and the dining area, is dotted with special furnishings like this Gustavian chair with saber legs and a white-painted French iron stool.
