The living room was filled with furniture from the clients' previous apartment. There wasn't any correlation, dull colors not to mention the lack of both furniture and joy. They don't appreciate the "dance floor" feel of the room.
The energy, ideas and much of the budget was gone for the homeowners after refurbishment. Since the sofa is dark, the choice fell on colored carpet to expand the color palette and give more life to the living room.
Balance
The low bench under the TV takes the focus away from the flat screen on the wall, forming a nice base for vases, books and other trinkets.
- The family wanted soft and practical furniture and to keep the art on the walls. The size and height bear to the new furniture. Rugs and accessories are hand selected with a lighter hue to create balance.
Texture
These fabrics and materials are ideal for creating texture and warmth in this space.
Pattern
After visiting several furnishing and lighting stores, this large odd wind chime was located in the storage and chosen to hang from the ceiling and light the room. Spray painted with chrome and wired as a light fixture, this transformed outdoor decoration now hangs as a glittering pendant. A great compliment to the winding bookshelf that is sculpted along the wall. It is a striking design object that gives character to the room and also has a function.
Style
A good tip is to highlight the few things that matter, and replace them periodically. Simple changes can actually make a big difference.
This is my style with a little twist, the room is everything we wanted. - Heidi homeowner
