Rethink formal gathering spaces. Make a dining room decoration more inviting with a bench instead of chairs. Here, López-Quesada piled a Greek bench with an eclectic mix of patterned pillows created a sense of intimacy.

Recast furnishings to give them new life. In the living room design, a canopy bed with a tufted cushion inhabits a spot usually reserved for a matching sofa in a traditional seating area.
An Isabel López-Quesada–designed canopy bed bisects a living room. The ribbed wood ceiling and painted floor are typical of Spetses; flamboyant shell mirrors hang above the vintage consoles.
Embrace curtains. López-Quesada designed the master bedroom’s curtained four-poster; an antique French chaise longue stands at its foot.
