The furniture in the library is a rather odd choice, but as they say, "de gustibus non est disputandum".

While we don't have the benefit of seeing pictures of each room, it appears that none of the styles match. Undoubtedly, the craftsmanship of the remodeled areas is excellent, but there's no continuity, no underlying theme.

This is very challenging to reconcile and judging from these pics, I don't think he was successful at that.

It sorta makes you wonder if he or his architect is bipolar or something.

The wood is nice. Of course it all looks very expensive. However the decor is cold, spartan and bland. It is devoid of personality except for the way the emptyness screams "obsessive-compulsive." Those baths are especially grim: like showering in a mausoleum.

Also: that NYT article on CEO libraries was a scream.

Meh, it's not love for me. I like the staircase and view but the rest isn't sexy in my opinion. I have heard he has an insane shoe collection. Instant redemtion.
