A while back, I posted about this project here, where my client originally hired another designer to help her with this room, but midway through the design process, my client wasn't happy with the direction.
This is when she contacted me and asked if I could help her (midway through another designer's design). This was a first for me, however, I was very excited about the prospect. We set out to create a light, airy and serene living room (using some existing pieces), but also adding various amounts of texture (slubby linen drapery panels, velvet like club chairs, a wool rug and beautiful lighting) to help pull this room together.
The major differences with this new design is the space plan that really opened up the living room (placing the sofa in front of the window made such a huge difference), painting the room a warm white and investing in some key furniture pieces to make it feel really comfortable and functional. See more details here.
Working with her existing gray tufted sofa and glass coffee table, we were able to tie in a variety of other key pieces while keeping the monochromatic color scheme. Down the road, my clients plan to get rid of the wall to wall carpet and install hardwood floors, which I think will make such a difference!
In the meantime, I think this is a beautiful room that they will enjoy for years to come! :)
