lushly sophisticated

This clinches it-- if I ever get the opportunity to design a house of my own, I'm having a room like this one. It's like a nook of the outside world tucked into a house, framed as a breathing work of art that one can curl up within. Also, can you imagine what candlelight would look like with these gorgeous windows? It'd be heavenly and romantic.
