Hallway to Heaven
Hallway and Pool Bath

The hallway, designed by Katie Pacioni of Ritscher Designs, offers guests a relaxing retreat before entering the adjoining sauna room. “This tranquil space is meant to evoke calmness with a little fire and heart,” Pacioni says. The focal point is a black, hand-carved, imported Mexican bench, layered with pillows adorned in rich fabrics. Beneath the bench is a textured black-and-white area rug. The space is united by scarlet draperies hung from either side of the sauna’s entry. Inside, gold stone tile is accented by crimson and orange accessories. Finally, the vanity’s mirror and decorative sconce induce drama, while foliage adds a pop of nature. —C.W.
