SOUTH FACING SITTING ROOM



Lucky guests have spent long evenings and lazy afternoons enjoying the sights and sounds of Tomaz Jardim's sunny front room.  Rich in heirloom furnishings and objects from his Portuguese and English/Caribbean lineage, the real treasure of the room is the meticulously organized collection of 78 rpm records (to be discussed in an upcoming post).  However, Jardim is not so bound to the past;  the vinyl collection is covetable and the ipod is up to date.  An evening in this room is perhaps the closest we've come to a soirée hosted by the likes of Anna Pavlovna.  The curated music is certainly of this century and the last, but the appreciation of it lends more to a time when accomplished hands on the pianoforte were the only means to enjoyment at home.
