Our clients had lovely furniture but the room felt cold and disjointed.  By angling the furniture towards the fireplace and incorporating tables and chests found in other areas of the home, we created an inviting conversation area with beautiful vignettes on previously bare walls.  The room feels more inviting, harmonious, and relaxing. 

 

 

Our clients had a beautiful view of their rural property from the kitchen eating nook but your eye was distracted by the crowded feeling of this space.  We framed the beautiful view outdoors by opening up the space around the table, replaced wall art with a piece that echoed a rural scene, and removed the drapery tie backs so your eye went to the view rather than the window treatments. 

 

 

 

 

The goal for this living/dining room combination was to create balance, inject color, and make the rooms cozy and inviting.  We accomplished this by rearranging the client’s furniture so it created an intimate conversation area.  We added a beautiful chair from another room to frame the fireplace and provide additional seating.  We used the client's throw pillows as our inspiration for injecting color into the room.

 

 

 

Our goal was to create impact on this console table as it was visible from the front door.  By adding accent lighting and creating a gallery of family photos, we gave the table presence.  By adding baskets to the bottom shelf, we were able to house easily accessible storage for the children's video collection.  

 

 

Our client wanted her dining room to be a warm and cozy space for entertaining family and friends.  We improved the seating flow by turning the table so it would not only be more comfortable for seated guests but accommodate expansion of the table for additional seating.  We punched up the room by painting the wall red, as it was the first room you saw upon entering the home.

 

 

We used the artwork above the sofa as our inspiration for color and style. Our client wanted her living room to be a more casual and inviting space for guests to gather.  The challenge was to blend existing traditional furniture with a few contemporary pieces to create a more relaxed feel to the room.
