A dining space has crystal chairs and an alligator-embossed table, both from Fendi Casa, and is lighted from above by an Italian Murano glass chandelier, meant to look like it is melting. “You can see these chairs from most vantage points of the home,” Mr. Jackson says. “They are instrumental in contributing to the overall futuristic look and feel.”
