Marbella Pool Terrace

Golden hour on a Marbella terrace: a turquoise pool catches the molten light off the sea, an olive tree and spills of magenta bougainvillea framing the mountains across the bay. A single fallen bloom floats on the water; a cream silk gown is draped over a white iron chair. The flat, sun-soaked poster palette — cobalt tile, amber sky, terracotta floor — does all the languid Costa-del-Sol work. Unmistakably holiday, unmistakably elegant. A piece for a sunroom, a dressing room, or wherever you keep the long evenings.
