Remember the Details!


                                                  Great design is about details-


 It takes some thought. How can I  make a piece of furniture special ?  How can I make it memorable? The sofa shown above has a contrast fabric band on the bottom of the kick pleat that matches a chair in the room-


The window seat has contrasting welts on the cushion and all of the pillows have whimsical details to contrast the fabric on the window seat cushion


                                            
                                           This is one of my favorite Sun Rooms

The fabrics are bright and cheery. The wood ceiling adds texture and keeps the formality down. The chandelier is whimsical and draws the eye up to the focal wall with the fireplace. The built in window seats perfectly balance out this room.

Its a room you can relax  or entertain  in.

The details are what makes a room unique and at the same time, timeless. I do not believe in rooms that are  untouchable, everyone walks on by. I call it "velvet rope design". The kind of room that takes itself so seriously no one wants to enter. All rooms should be lived in and approachable.

So, take a look around your home. Are you living in every room?

Great design is in the details!
