American\u2019s Largest Home\u00ae & the psychology of color<\/h2>\n
\"George
Mr. Vanderbilt\u2019s bedroom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Vanderbilt\u2019s famed Biltmore\u00ae in Asheville, North Carolina, set a high standard for gracious hospitality, soothing comfort and exquisite d\u00e9cor when the family first took residence in 1895. The grand home with 250 rooms, built in French Renaissance style under the guidance of George W. Vanderbilt, was regarded as cutting edge and trendsetting. From its indoor heated swimming pool to its stunning library and luxurious finishes, its sense of style was unparalleled.<\/p>\n

That rarefied style also applied to the bedrooms of Biltmore \u2013 at that time, 35 in total.<\/p>\n

Each bedroom was designed carefully to create a gracious sleep environment for family and visiting guests. The rooms featured luxurious bed linens, roller shades and thick curtains made from finely woven fabrics to regulate temperature and block out light. Decor was customized to the space and its intended occupant, giving each bedroom its own unique personality. The choice of wall treatment played an important role as well, whether it was French-made wallpaper or a carefully selected paint color.<\/p>\n

Modern day visitors of Biltmore are still in awe of the beautiful shades used throughout bedrooms of the grand home.<\/p>\n

The regal power of red & gold for your bedroom<\/h2>\n

Pairing a rich red with striking gold evokes luxury, wealth and love \u2013 characteristics that the Vanderbilt family embodied. One of the grandest guest rooms in Biltmore, the Louis XV bedroom, likely made guests feel as though they were spending the night in a palace. Sadly, more than 100 years of hospitality caused the ornate fabric and detailing of this room to split and tear, while exposure to sunlight from the majestic mountains surrounding the estate had faded the gold to more of a cream color. This prompted a three-year restoration process that began in 2007, where Biltmore\u2019s conservation staff, curators, craftsmen and artisans removed the brittle fabric, reproduced these hand-woven masterpieces, repaired moldings and trim and installed masterfully unique velvet panels. Every second of work shows in this stunningly beautiful room, now restored to its former glory.<\/p>\n

The use of red in a bedroom is significant. Those who study psychological effects of the color red say it sparks strong feelings, including warmth, comfort, passion, joy and excitement. It was a fitting hue to use in the Louis XV room, where George and Edith Vanderbilt\u2019s only daughter, Cornelia, was born.<\/p>\n
