Classic Finds + Design: Sky-High Style

Rising high above Bellevue’s bustling downtown core, the new Bellevue Towers (Bellevue, 500 106th Ave. NE; 425.454.9922; bellevuetowers.com) condominium complex is a beacon of modern style and luxurious urban living. Step into the master suite of the South Tower penthouse model unit, designed and furnished by Masins (Bellevue, 10708 Main St.; 425.450.9999; masins.com), and you’ll be inspired to create a sky-high sanctuary of your own. With sweeping views, a bold striped wall treatment and a soothing pearl-and-gray color palette, this bedroom is the epitome of elegance.

Want to add some posh penthouse style to your boudoir? Start with a few beautiful basics from Masins, such as Vanguard’s towering Hotel upholstered headboard, Jeffco’s sexy Rive Gauche vanity desk and Oly’s Coral side chair in a sleek, white enamel finish. Next, add some luxe accents from design diva Marie Harris’ Veritables boutiques (Madison Park; 206.322.7782; Bellevue; 425.455.8335;veritablesdecor.com), from plush pillows in charcoal gray velvet and a taupe cashmere throw to a striking trio of metallic glazed ceramic vases. A collection of antique white bisque porcelain neoclassical figures from Pacific Galleries (SoDo, 241 S Lander St.; 206.292.3999; pacgal.com) adds a hint of history and Old World glamour. Finally, a sweet pair of vintage metal-and-white marble spaniel bookends from Sisters Antiques (Issaquah, 615 NW Gilman Blvd.; 425.392.7373;sistersantiques.com) brings a bit of canine charm to the arrangement.

With a few key penthouse-inspired pieces, any bedroom can be turn-
key chic.
