Inspired by the breathtaking views of Palm Beach, Robin Henry infuses the natural beauty of the coastal landscape into her at-home “Blossom Bar.” Designed as a versatile escape, the bar’s calming ambiance makes it the perfect setting for both morning reflections and evening gatherings.
Central to the bar’s design is the exquisite Calacatta Corchia marble; its white surface naturally painted with bubbly veining, creating a sense of lightness and movement. This luminous stone is paired with delicate lattice detailing, which enhances the space with texture, and classic craftsmanship, giving it a distinctly feminine charm.
Contrasting this lightness, Carbon Grey (leathered) quartzite anchors the “behind-the-scenes” portion of the bar. Its dark, velvety finish adds weight and depth, grounding the space and providing a sleek, dramatic counterbalance to the bar’s more ethereal elements.
