An Asian Inspired LIVING ROOM
Many of our customers ask us if we are able to incorporate some of their existing furniture into a new design board. Of course we do... afterall decorating does require being reasourceful! In our lastest Mini Makeover, Matilde wanted to keep a few of her pieces while infusing feng shui and pops of color. Here's our suggestions: Working with the pieces she requested to keep in her space, our approach was transational with a touch of Asian. We created a space that feels like a living room yet is still comfy and inviting for family time. Furniture layout: We recommend a rug that is either 9x13 or 10x14. We love the armoire you said you would like to keep in the space it is in and think it would be a perfect place to hide the television when it is not in use. If the TV will not fit in it, we recommend a console table in it's place to place the TV on. The sofa should be place facing the window that you have the shutters on, not pushed up against the wall but floating off of it with enough space to walk behind. Two accent chairs face the sofa. We love the idea of a wall clock above her fireplace and creating a gallery wall on the large open wall behind the sofa using her existing art pieces in the room. Furniture & Accessories: We chose a comfy and inviting sofa and two leather leather chairs in a fabulous blue color. We recommend anchoring the sofa with two metallic end tables which will pull the finish from the nail heads trim on the chairs. The pillow and drapes balance the color in the room and we love the pop of white on the coffee table from the ginger jars. We think this room would look fabulous with grey walls. We would recommend matching the grey in the rug and having the paint tinted at only 30% or 50% of the color match. That way the colors will work but the paint will not be overpowering. You will find additional recommendations in your shopping list for many of items in your design. LOVE this look?
