The Main Staircase
While the staircase in the pantry is meant to be used mainly by the Obamas and their employees, the main staircase acts as a way to impress guests. The understated space is said to have been covered with family portraits.

We love that this space is pulled back while still having details such as the knotted handrail and the luxurious runner. Overall, the staircase subtly whispers luxury rather than screams it at guests.
The Primary Suite
On the second floor, we have the primary bedroom with the same design elements as seen in the rest of the house. The suit also flawlessly mixes contemporary touches with classic ones, from headboards to light fixtures.

Our possible favorite detail is the diamond-paned windows balanced with matching wood paneling below, making the whole space feel cohesive and warm. And the upholstered bed with wide nightstands is a practical addition.
