Last month I wrote about an incredible Mizner-inspired Mediterranean mansion in Palm Beach, decorated by Kemble Interiors. Mimi McMakin, the lead designer on the project, thought I might also enjoy another Mediterranean masterpiece she and her former partner Brooke Huttig decorated in the 1990s. It was featured on the cover of the January-February issue of Southern Accents in 1995, and she was kind enough to have a scanned copy sent to me. As with all of Mimi’s work, I am absolutely in love!
Finished in 1926, La Salona was designed by Marion Sims Wyeth with an addition in 1929 by Maurice Fatio – two of Palm Beach’s most celebrated architects. Despite the fact that this home was decorated in the 1990s, it looks like it could be on the cover of any leading shelter magazine today. I’d just swap out a few of the Southwestern fabrics and move right on in! Let’s take a look…

The bones of this home speak for themselves. I could move in with no furniture at all. Please leave the garden. I'd love to see photos of inside the home today and see if any changes were made. What a treasure to Florida…

Timeless indeed. The hallmark of a truly great decorator.
I love this home, and the pictures are great. How nice it would be to have an open courtyard!
It is amazing. Wishing I was doing my blogging on that gorgeous blue and white chaise…happy Monday, Andrea!!

Good gracious could I be happy in that home or what?!
Stunning! Love Mimi and Brooke's taste- they can do no wrong in my book. Pure elegance.
