We’ve been in our home for 4 years now, and for 3 of these years, the entrance room of our home—the formal lounge, the very first thing you see from the entrance door—was lovingly known as “the soccer room,” which after all was as a result of it was an enormous empty area the place my husband, Daniel, arrange a big soccer aim in order that he may play soccer at any second! It was very cool for him and really mortifying for me. So final yr we determined it was time to maneuver the soccer to the basement and furnish the room. I’m so completely happy with the transformation. (Scroll right down to the top of the submit for the listing of the place I bought furnishings, lamps, curtains, and many others.)
Transitional Fashion Residing Room
My residence model is transitional, a mix of conventional and up to date (fashionable). I’m drawn to all issues gentle and vibrant, neutrals, the grounding high quality of heat wooden tones and pure woven components like jute, wicker, and rattan. I really like the colour blue. And whereas I get pleasure from plenty of the trendy design tendencies (mid-century clear strains, white sofas, impartial coloration schemes, plenty of woven textures), I finally need my decor to really feel timeless. So I weave conventional, classic items (suppose mahogany finish tables, vintage-looking rugs) into that up to date aesthetic as a result of they a.) by no means exit of fashion, and b.) add richness and character (in any other case, an all-modern look can really feel just a little chilly and flat).
