Goldshield Castle Bedroom: The "East" Room (Design)
5. The East Room
Season:
Fall
Colors:
Burnt Orange, Purple, Deep Green, Ebony
Theme:
Economy, Sensibility, Function
Description:
This rustic room will be plain and simple, straightforward. This room could be
used as a "sitting room" for solitary activities with a place to
read, write, play cards, knit, and so on.
Alternative
Bedroom: A highly-functional modern-day
room (which could act as the fifth bedroom) could be positioned near the
kitchen and laundry room area for employee lockers, performer's dressing room,
guest bedroom, maid's quarters or extra storage.
Goldshield Castle Bedroom: The "Attic" Room (Design)
4. THE "ATTIC ROOM"
Season:
Winter
Colors:
Charcoal, Grays, Plum
Theme:
Creepy, Treasures, Zodiac
Description:
This austere room will have a Queen-sized bed with a four-poster frame, lined
with heavy fabric curtains. The walls
will be of blackened wood paneling, laced with cobwebs, and the floors of wide,
dark planks. Taxidermy crows will hover from the oppressive heavy rafters...A
ghost appears every night at 2 am ...
This
is the famous Haunted Room!
A gas light can
be created from a metal bowl and fake
logs, similar to
a small fireplace.
Goldshield Castle Bedroom: The "Kid's" Room (Design)
3.
THE "KIDS" ROOM
Season: Summer
Colors:
Royal Blue, Warm Tans
Theme:
Theatrical, Whimsical
Description:
This eclectic room will have twin beds in case friends want to share a room
(but not necessarily a bed) or if children stay. Masks, puppets and musical
instruments from all over the world will adorn the shelves.
The
bathroom will have a shower/tub resembling a row boat.
Goldshield Castle Bedroom: The VIP/Honeymoon Suite (Design)
2.
VIP/HONEYMOON SUITE
Season:
Spring
Colors:
Cream, Gold, Yellowish Green, Burgundy Wine
Theme:
Flowers/Tree of Life, Shiny Objects, Relaxation
Description:
The light and up-beat VIP/Honeymoon Suite will have a Cal-King sized bed,
draped in yards of plush velvet. Perhaps the bedcovering will be of unbleached sheepskin.
The floor could be wood framed near the walls with marble inlay in the center
of the room.
The
Honeymoon Suite bathroom (the largest in the estate) will have a wooden tub
surrounded by Roman-esque mosaics and frescos depicting tasteful nudes bathing.
Sensuality will exude from every surface...
Goldshield Castle Master Bedroom (Design)
1. THE MASTER BEDROOM
Colors:
Chocolate Brown, Gold,
Theme:
Dragons, Shields, Science, Nature, Metal
Description:
The unfussy, masculine Master Bedroom will have a queen-sized bed on a platform
for dramatic effect. The rustic walls and flooring will be of stone. A well-used desk will sit in a window alcove
as the whole space is well-defined by function -- study, rest, preparation.
Ancient
books and artifacts of long-ago sit about, bits of agricultural samples in
hand-blown glass jars line the bookshelves, as wells as feathers, rocks,
taxidermy... A formal portrait of the
estate's owner will be hung over the fireplace... Think Leonardo da Vinci's private room...
(This bedroom room will not be for public use.)
Hand-crafted metal lighting fixtures such as the one shown
in the image above can be found in Mexico
