Forest Whimsy from Fawn Galli

House Beautiful featured this whimsical Greenwich Village prewar house that was transformed into an "enchanted forest" theme by designer, Fawn Galli. The client wanted something fairy-tale-dreamy and used the book, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe as inspiration in which the characters emerge from the back of the wardrobe. Great wallpapers and colors are used throughout the house. Which room is your favorite?

In this apartment the front door opens to a white entry hall lined with birch-print wallpaper which sets the tone for the winter forest theme.

Cole & Son Lily Wallpaper in the bedroom. Love the variety of green fabrics in the room and of course the gorgeous french canopy chair.

Lucite dining room table "disappears" allowing the blue chairs to be the showcase of the room

Beautiful girls room with lucite chair and desk

"Dreamlike enchanted feeling with butterflies flying around" Farfalla wallpaper from Nina Campbell
