“Since I knew the family, I made a special effort to make sure whatever I selected really suited them,” said Anna Marie Fanelli of Floor & Décor in Tenafly, NJ, who supplied the stone for this project.
Although the owners and designer looked at all available materials, Fanelli explained that the selection process was not rigorous because her clients were very decisive. “It was a nice working relationship,” she said. “I clearly understood their objective, so it was easy to put the project together.”
