A 19th Century Farmhouse with a Playful, Dr. Dolittle Vibe

A vintage 1920s taxidermied ostrich oversees the dining room. The French country farm table is illuminated by a trio of Alvar Aalto pendant lamps. A framed Thurston Hopkins photograph hangs above a vintage Florence Knoll credenza.

The black-walled entry features a vintage anatomical bee chart and other pieces Odom and Gerson have collected from all the places they’ve lived.

A Serge Mouille lighting fixture extends over a considerable portion of the living room, which includes Qing Dynasty chairs and an Arne Jacobsen sofa upholstered in a pink Hallingdal fabric. The portrait of Marcel Proust is by Don Florence.

The great room was created by linking an existing barn to the house. A 1970s painting by Jean-Pierre Pericaud hangs above a Florence Knoll sofa covered in a velvet mohair. The brass coffee table is by Milo Baughman. Two Bert Stern photographs are regarded as the last sitting portraits of Marilyn Monroe.

A floor-to-ceiling bookcase filled with volumes about design and art occupies a wall in the great room; a green table from Established & Sons serves as another dining area in the home.

Another wall is defined by a small set piece, complete with books, minimalist benches, and a small painting by Stephen Piscuskas.

In the hallway that joins the house to the barn/great room, walls are painted in Farrow & Ball's Charlotte’s Locks. The photograph of books references the bookcase around the corner.

A guest bedroom includes a dog painting by Juan Torcoletti. A pair of white Artemide lamps is positioned on each side of the bed, while a Jean Prouve ceiling lamp provides additional lighting.

A bathtub was painted with Farrow & Ball's Yeabridge Green, while the walls are treated with the brand’s Salon Drab. The framed map shows Pan Am’s worldwide routes.
