What we did:
I started with color. With the current state of the room covered in red I knew they were so over it. Carol requesting warmth in their home so I had to do it with adding textiles while using a cooler color palette.
Upon digging deeper I realized that both Carol and John were exactly 2 opposites of the style spectrum. Carol loved the beach she loved anything Cape Cod she liked the grays the beiges the neutrals while John had a more modern condo bachelor city style to him. The toughest part was finding the furniture style balance that complemented both of them, so that they can live in this house comfortably and enjoy forever.
Here are the highlights of the rest of the project:
Came up with a spacial plan, color, and fabric scheme that worked for where the couple is today.
Used seating groupings to break up a otherwise large room
Reused a couple pieces of furniture and accessories.
Selected all furnishings, accessories, and art.
Customized an entertainment piece that has since kept John in the living room and out of the basement.
What I love:
They gave me the go ahead to mix up styles, all while keeping the palette fresh and clean.
Those damn rugs. I have since ordered 1 for my own home
The art on the fireplace. We were able to go BIG and dramatic since we had the ceiling height
