[Hutton Wilkinson] started working for [Tony]
Duquette as a teenager in 1971, later becoming a full-fledged partner and now
president of the firm and guardian of the master's flame. The two men were soul
mates in design, and during their many years of collaboration, it was hard to
know where the one talent merged into the other. By the Duquette standard,
then, Wilkinson's new home isn't "strange"; it's merely theatrical.
The black-coral-gold color scheme is an idea he first devised with Duquette
("My idea of white is coral," says Wilkinson), and the basic
three-story floor plan echoes Duquette's famous Dawnridge home nearby.
