Don’t Forget to Look Up!

So many elements come together to make a finished room.  Certainly furnishings are a main factor, but let’s consider the architectural elements of the room as well.  The floors are a good place to start.  They can be wood (what species, what stain?) or tile (ceramic, natural stone or marble?).  Will your walls be painted, wallpapered or paneled?  The window choices are endless and how you treat the fireplace or built-in cabinetry can completely define the style of a room.

Small Space, Big Transformation

This living space is totally transformed!

Our client was unhappy with the overall, unfinished and cold feeling of her patio home, but didn’t know what to add to make it warm and pretty.

Animal Print Carpets – Still Popular!

Animal prints are still a favorite choice for carpet.  There are more styles than ever!

Animal print carpets are a great design element because they’re so versatile. They may become a room’s backdrop or a statement piece. Styles range from casual to formal, modern to traditional. There is a carpet out there for every situation.

But lest you think animal prints are all serious, they can be really playful too. This “Cat’s Paw” pattern (shown at the left) is a fun, abstract variation from Dash & Albert that is colorful and unique.
