Martha
House writes in the London Dally Telegraph:
"Sane L'intimite" is a phrase of which the French are particularly fond, and they carry out intimaey | to the extent even of embroider- Ing Initials on men's shirts. Par- ticularly they like Intimacy in rooms, and it is due to them that there are marked distinctions be- tween rooms destined for men or for women, and that rooms are dresaed almost as though they were persons, Bome old, some young. Some with character, Isome merely with pretti- ness. Masculine and femin- ine pieces of furniture come essen- tially from France, and no ора would think of a buudoir as any- thing but a woman's room.
Feminine Touch.
The new furnishing takes even more account of the intimate note than the old. A girl's bed-sitting room is very differently conceived from that of a boy. There are special little rooms, which, unlike their predecessors, are not without comfort, but which have the pecu- liarly intimate, cosy note, coupled with elegance that is supposed to be feminine. Colouring is lighter, if not in tone, then, so to speak, in walght. Stuffs are different. - The furniture is of a different shape, and the whole is intimately connected with one person, just as clothes are adapted for one rather than for all..
Intimacy in general is obtained either by means of a rather small room or by adapting part of a big room so that it feels small. This last is the corner treatment. The small room under modern in- fluences must, however, have, If not a spacious appearance, then an appearance of space and room

Very often there is one plece of furniture which predominates, and the rest are graded from it. Some times it is size which counts, some times depth at colouring. Some times, again, there is a very beau- |tiful object to the room to which all the others lead up. This may consist of a vase, or, In the case of the little room by Jean Colozies, edited by Rene Prou, It may con- sist of finely-worked and unusual curtains. It does not matter very much ao long as there is a main idea to which all the others lead
