Home Tour: Mindy Grossman's Blueprint for Living

Who Put the Great in the Great Room?

Mindy and Neil bought a massive portrait of boxer Joe Louis from British artist Sandor Camille—then waited years to find the right wall to hang it on. The painting dominates the great room; the custom-designed coffee table is from Studio JDM, Inc. The fabrics are a study in contrasts: muted shades for the Jim Thompson curtains and Beverly Furniture sofa, vibrant stripes for the twin club chairs.
