In a wide range of traditional and contemporary settings, there is visual drama, from peaceful to dynamic. Whether it is a house, a villa, or an apartment, every home is unique and reflects differences in style, background and personality. Our first “House Tour” includes: Sweep ordinary under the rug at Barbara Leidner’s Hampshire AUDACIOUS WHIMSEY Lane home.... especially under the vibrant, contemporary rugs that her late husband, Norman Fleischner, designed. This is a house of audacious whimsy. At the front door there’s a sign inviting you to GIGGLE. And you do so in every room. The walls, ceilings, floors and furniture entice and tickle you. Your interest is piqued at the tongue-in-cheek ‘crystal chandelier.’ The chairs will amuse you. Yes, they are The Three Stooges, the faces of Moe, Larry and Curly, vividly painted on the three attached theater seats. And you will be charmed by the aluminum jester chair and the yellow metal moon and stars chair, both beautifully hand-crafted. Barbara points out an unusual upholstered chair from the 1970’s, inherited from her mom and some stunning antiques artfully mixed in with all the artifacts. Check out the wood violin on the wall for an extra chuckle. This house decor is like a idiosyncratic museum. It’s a spirited mix. It’s the past, present and future. More than one viewing is needed to take it all in. Barbara has lived at Hunters Run since 2001. She haunts flea markets, arts and craft shows, here, there and everywhere. Her house makes her smile.
