Miles Redd never ceases to amaze me with his incredible interiors, and this fabulous 1920s Greenwich, Connecticut home – featured in the November/December 2020 of Veranda magazine – is positively stunning! Reminiscent of an enchanted forest, the entrance makes the perfect first impression in this traditional yet whimsical and bold home. “When visitors walk in, they’re wowed,” homeowner Sam Milner told Veranda. “It’s so out of the box and different.”
Milner and her husband David Flowerdew originally purchased the seven- bedroom, 8,600-square-foot house as a weekend retreat from New York City, but during COVID they decided to move in permanently. The couple hired Miles Redd to decorate and architect Charles Hilton to make the house more functional for their family including three young boys. Redd and Milner share a passion for 1980s design along with 19th-century antiques, custom upholstered pieces, vintage carpets, chinoiserie wallpapers, botanical prints, exuberant chintzes…. and of course, lots and lots of color.

Maximalism! Lots to love here. Fabulous rooms. Made my day.
JUST GOOD.
These rooms are so joyous. I especially love the Arabic room with that stunning wallpaper to really set off the fabulous Moorish painting. So much attention to detail. He traverses many different time periods and cultures, but they all manage to look cohesive and not a hotch-potch or even worse too matchy-matchy. The only room that I don’t like is the dark green room with the busy carpet and chairs and deep blue curtains. I find that one overwhelming and depressing. Miles Redd is such a master of pattern.
Miles tufted sofa wears its silk in the manner a woman might wear an elegant evening gown! Bold, sensual, and pleasing to the eye!
This issue of Veranda was fabulous and the Miles Redd piece was just one of many great features! I love it!
