ONE VISION, ONE EXTRAORDINARY MANSION IN THE TRADITION OF STANFORD WHITE The house designs of Stanford White embodied the ultimate achievements of The Gilded Age and created an "American Renaissance" in architecture and art. And just like Stanford White, who not only designed a mansion for his clients, but also traveled the world to collect the furnishings they should contain, this owner also traveled the world to collect the finest architectural and decoration ideas, as well as the art and furnishings, to combine the very best of the classical tradition with every modern technological convenience.
