Living room project

 


I'd like to share a few before and after pics of a lovely family-friendly living room that I just installed.  The house has a great flow and comfy vibe.  The ceilings are pretty low; the original dark and heavy window treatments made the room a bit serious and almost gloomy.

Before:
Lightening up the paint and the window treatments and adding a large light neutral wool area rug really brightened the space.  It also slightly modernized the room to align with the client's sensibility.  The furnishings are classic, child friendly and blend lots of color and texture in a soothing way.  Adding layers of lighting (new fabric drum ceiling fixtures, sconces & lamps) provides ambiance and soft lighting for all times of day and night.

And After:
