On the floor is a braided abaca rug from Serena & Lily, and meditation cushions sit opposite a Peter Marino for Poltrona Frau sofa. Atop a games table by the Danish designer Ole Wanscher is a rosewood chessboard from the Andhra Coast and a ceramic qilin, a mythological guardian from the Tang dynasty. “He makes sure no one cheats at chess,” says Leffers.
