Thornton says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further depth is supplied by the unique pattern overhead \u2014 &#8220;a signature ceiling treatment for us,&#8221; notes Thornton, who used hand-dyed marble papers, applying them in a patchwork pattern. &#8220;It&#8217;s a great way to add interest, color and drama to an all-white space.&#8221;
