Mauney Home In Albuquerque :
Mauney Home Is Featured
The Albuquerque, New
Mexico home of Dr. and Mrs.
Herman Mauney was
featured in a Fall edition of
“Albuquerque Living.” Dr.
Mauney is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Carl F. Mauney of Kings
Mountain.
‘“This House = Says
Welcome’ was the ap-
propriate title of the four
page icture feature by
usan Craig.
It’s the individual touches
by Dr. Mauney and his wife,
Emily, that make the
Mauney’s house a personal
statement. :
Herman’s collection of five
cut crystal is displayed in a
floor-to-ceiling glass case in
the dining room. The guest
room was designed around
twin, four-poster beds in
which Emily’s mother and
aunt were born 93 years ago.
In the den, also upstairs, is an
upright Fischer piano that
belonged to Emily’s mother.
The matching stool was found
in Herman’s father’s attic.
Both pieces are antiqued blue
and look ready for another 50
years. Emily decorated the
dining room with furniture
and paintings she inherited
from her mother. The dining
room is also home for many
silver antiques. Herman
designed and made the at-
tractive blue window cornice.
Guests dine at a table
beneath a crystal chandelier.
Underneath the table is a
Chinese rug of brilliant blues:
and reds.
It seems natural that
visitors would explore the
house. Doorways practically
beckon you forward. A tall
archway, outlined in blue tile,
leads to the master suite
which includes a bedroom
and sitting room.
The suite is decorated in a
harmonious blend of blues
and grays. Another doorway,
shaped like a keyhole, takes
ou into the dressing room
bath complete with eunlen
tub. Most people do a double
take when they see the
cabinets. The mirrors on the
walls make the cabinets lok
,as though they are floating in
midair. Another doorway
leads to the spa, which is
floored in brick. The lower
level looks inward to the
plaza the way houses in Spain
or Mexico look onto a central
courtyard or patio. The
design is reversed upstairs.
The second level looks out-
ward to the valley and moun-
tains. Magnificent views of
the city and the Sandias may
be seen from the windows of
the bedroom, den and study.
Each of these rooms has its
own balcony.
Their two story Tanoan
home is perfect for entertain-
ing. Guests seem to be drawn
first to the solar atrium in the
center of the house. The
Mauneys call it a plaza
because the room is reminis-
cent of a Spanish market with
its brick floors and royal blue
tiles. The glass walls reach
upwards 18 feet to curved
balconies and rust colored *
tile window boxes. The
atrium also has a classical
look to it with tile circles,
round windows, and
geometrically designed door-
ways. The plants and trees
add to the relaxed feeling of
the room. And, the soft
splashing sound of the foun-
tain is a great conversation
starter. Practically
everything you need for a
party is in the plaza, in-
cluding an indoor barbecue.
Emily calls it her second kit-
chen. The plaza is designed to
attract sun, as well as par-
tygoers. For total passive
solar heating, the Mauneys
can close off the room from
the rest of the house.
The living room was
designed to highlight favorite
paintings of the couple
rought from North Carolina.
Emily’s organ is framed in
its own alcove. A massive
china cabinet fits into
another recess. Walls either
protrude or recede to best
show off the Mauney’s fine
collection of paintings. The
focal point of the room is a
large unique fireplace ac-
cented by dimmer lights
hanging from the cathedral
ceiling.
There is also a library, a
workroom, a darkroom and
all of the house and yards are
designed for comfort and
reflect the personality of the
owners who say the welcome
mat is always out.
