The Dawleys’ wonderfully welcoming residence is a testament to that elegant aesthetic. Luxurious textiles, heirloom furniture, and French art form the foundation for each light-bathed room, while the color palette of French blue and white, enhanced with hints of lavender and blush, lends uplifting serenity to every gracious space—a blissful ambiance that prompts Mel to proclaim, “This is absolutely our dream home!”
