Yesterday I shared a recent e-design and today I am back to talk about another client project I’ve got in the works. For this family I am working on their family room. They have a lot of mis-matched pieces and the room has turned into the dumping grounds for hand-me-down furniture. Another dilemma is the fact that their back door opens to this room leaving them without a mudroom or entry of any sort. Because their kids play multiple sports and they are an active family in general, lots of shoes are piling up.

design boards: client living room & entry
I recently completed an e-design project for a sweet family. They just moved into a beautiful home and needed some help pulling the rooms together. We worked on their family room, entryway, and a keeping room off the kitchen. They had a lot of the big pieces but, needed to add in layers of accessories to give their home interest and personality so that’s what I tried to help them do.
Starting with their entry, I suggested navy as an accent color. Their was already a consistent base throughout the house of grey and yellow so I thought navy could be a nice compliment. I also wanted to add in neutral pieces, such as the jute runner and a wood bead chandelier to give the space some texture. I feel like those kind of natural elements make a room warm and welcoming- exactly what you want people to feel upon entering your house. That gold mirror is one of my favorites because of that pretty leaf design and the awesome price point ($150). They ended up using a mirror she found locally so I am happy to share my source, here.
