It Is All In The Details

Do you have a room that needs an update, but you don’t know where to start? Here is a lovely house that has a dated look and after careful measuring and discussions a whole new plan came together.


Before

Eliminating the large dark armoire and opening the room up with mirrors really lightens the look. The round clock adds another shape to the wall and of course is very useful. In fact needing a clock was on the list of must haves.


After

The new credenza holds the television and fills the wall out well. The unique design of bronze on the wood adds wonderful detail to the room and looks great with the existing chairs.


Below is the fireplace wall with a dark recliner next to a dark fireplace. By eliminating the recliner and side table, and the large table by the rattan chair the area opens up. Also eliminating so many items on the mantel lightens the room.

After

This end of the room facing the television has lots of furniture, feels a bit tight and has lots of accessories. By simplifying the number of pieces of furniture and accessories the room feels lighter and brighter while being very comfortable.

In this other view of the family room the contrast of the light cream sectional and the darker chair and sofa really shows up.

The details make such a difference! By changing out the more elaborate thick rods and finials to a soft gold narrow rod and simple end caps the look was simplified and more up to date.


After


Eliminating the large rectangular tables for small round ones and changing out they floor lamps to a cleaner look makes such a difference. Again, going for cleaner lines and better sized tables opens up the space.


Before

This unique shelf high above the entrance to the kitchen has all the looks of Old World which was popular at the time. Now the simplification of everything is big and the elimination of so many pieces feels better.

The original art picks up the tones the client loves and plays well with the green and blue accents. As you can see it is truly all in the details! This update shows lighter, brighter colors and yet is calming and relaxing. Nelson Designs delivered again!
