ROUTE 211—AMISSVILLE

One of the basic terms to become familiar with in home decor is the term “scale”. Scale refers both to the total form and mass of the object, and its relationship to the size of the room. Scale is also the relationship of each piece compared to the sizes of other furniture in the same room. If you are one of the newlywed set living in a small apartment, stop considering (for the moment, at least! the purchase of an enormous overstuffed sofa. Instead look for a piece with slim lines. On the other hand, if your home is of heroic proportions, think several times before purchasing dainty little gilt chairs.
