Down-To-Earth Interiors

Many clients are caught between the desire for a cozy, child-friendly, home and a sophisticated style. I maintain the notion, you may have both. Consider appropriate proportions, furniture, and color schemes that you will balance the needs of all inhabitants. You will never be fully happy with your house until it’s compatible with the way you live. Keep the color palette simple and understated. The pops of color can happen with accessories and unexpected exceptional pieces. Taupe or cream color walls with a neutral sofa color establish a mutual comfort, while an Oushak or antique area rug with bold pillows on the sofa provide spots of color. Throughout the house, textures, tactile fabrics, and occasional splashes of saturated color can punch up the neutral backdrop. Interior design selections should make you smile and set an elevating tone when you enter the room. You should impress yourself before impressing others.
