A couple of weeks ago I was hired by a local couple to help with their family room. I love it when both the husband and wife participate in how they want to room to feel. The home was already lovely and had an overall serene vibe. Think calming colors, linen upholstery, fresh and airy. They needed help with adding pattern, choosing a few key pieces of furniture, and accessories. While I was there, we began re-arranging the furniture.
Gotta love clients who are willing to quickly make changes. The sofa was originally opposite the tv and now it faces the fireplace with chairs flanking it.
With limited space between the fireplace and window, I recommended hanging one panel per window up high. Also, the new location of the sofa allows for a sofa table.
Here is a mock-up of the plan.
Please overlook the crooked curtain rods.
And here is the mood board that I created for the room.
Using existing photos of the family, I created a gallery around the new tv console to "fill in" that large wall.
I am really looking forward to seeing this room come together.
Revised to say: Out of respect for my clients,
I do not share sources.
Thank you for understanding.

ReplyDeleteLove it! The mirror above the fireplace, those one-sided panels are brilliant and the tufted ottoman as a coffee table really brightens and softens the room!! You definitely have an eye for this, Rene.
ReplyDeleteYou really nailed the serene vibe, looks lovely Rene!

Looks great, Rene! Love those curtains! The light fixture is also great and I love the way you changed up the wall with the tv. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteIf my husband had free reign with our house, I'm pretty sure it would be red and yellow with a certain native american profile posted everywhere. :)
it's going to be gorgeous! love the mirror over the fireplace and the little stools tucked under the console table!!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, Rene..it is amazing how different a space can look with just a different furniture layout and then the accessories take it to a different level.
ReplyDeletestunning. they are so lucky to have you. Thank God they let you move the furniture. ;-)
ReplyDeleteLove the furniture arrangement! All of your choices are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou've put the perfect touches on a room with great bones and great pieces of furniture. My favorites are the curtains and and the way you flanked the TV console with matching lamps. Very cool and unusual. I've never seen that! I also like the tall bookcase in the corner for added height.
