D6cor was a collaboration among the new owners and their architect and builders. Handsome paneling was installed in several rooms and is most noteworthy in the sun room, which is now used as a breakfast room for guests.

Among the many things that strike your eye as you walk into the Gay Street Inn is its fine collection of paintings, many by local artists of some note, like June Jordan, Tucker Hill, Mimi Rogers, and others. And, of course, there are more than several extraordinary landscapes by Kevin Adams himself that grace the walls of the Inn.
A number of his more stunning paintings are those which he painted on site in France, Italy, and Russia. But since his love affair with the Rappahannock landscape, Adams has painted and captured the beauty of Old Rag, the “Peak,” White Oak Canyon, and other scenic landscapes closer to home.
Two projects remain to be accomplished this spring: one is finishing a new fifth bedroom suite for guests on the second floor, and a garSge studio for Kevin across the street and in front of the Inn.
