Design for an alcove between two rooms, with a sofa upholstered in a fabric matching the flanking drapery curtains and the tented ceiling canopy. Above the sofa, the wall is decorated with fluted golden drapery radiating from a convex, sun-shaped mirror. Drapery frames the sofa recess and doorways. The walls of the rooms on either side are turquoise.
