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 referred to as “the soccer room,” which in fact was as a result of it was a giant empty area the place my husband, Daniel, arrange a big soccer objective 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 pleased with the transformation. (Scroll all the way down to the top of the submit for the record of the place I acquired furnishings, lamps, curtains, and so on.)

Transitional Fashion Dwelling Room

My residence type is transitional, a mix of conventional and up to date (fashionable). I’m drawn to all issues gentle and shiny, neutrals, the grounding high quality of heat wooden tones and pure woven parts like jute, wicker, and rattan. I like the colour blue. And whereas I get pleasure from lots of the trendy design developments (mid-century clear traces, white sofas, impartial coloration schemes, numerous woven textures), I finally need my decor to really feel timeless. So I weave conventional, classic items (assume mahogany finish tables, vintage-looking rugs) into that up to date aesthetic as a result of they a.) by no means exit of favor, and b.) add richness and character (in any other case, an all-modern look can really feel a bit of chilly and flat).
