The 50th year of NYC’s Kips Bay Show House featured designer Alessandra Branca’s “The New Drawing Room,” a collaboration highlighting our artisan Sopiko Barnovi’s decorative and faux painting talents. Sopiko created a stunning faux travertine fireplace surround along with a strié bookcase and a dragged faux bois on the crown mouldings, baseboards, and more throughout.
