The classical period of design encompasses ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian aesthetics—an influence spanning both art and architecture. In this French château by designer Juan Pablo Molyneux, the classical spirit endures. His sculpture gallery showcases reliefs, casts, and a chandelier of his own design beneath an exquisitely plastered ceiling.
