Italian painted ceiling
In an unusual period-revival home in Orinda, California, this skylit room’s soaring 22 foot height and hexagonal shape led to the creation of an ornamental ceiling mural inspired by early Italian Renaissance borders. Designed and custom painted by Lynne Rutter Murals and Decorative Painting, the mural panels were first painted on canvas in the studio, and then installed here by Peter Bridgman. Photo: David Papas.
