Help! Rug ideas to tie family room together
Comments (16)Start with a good-sized high-contrast rug like those suggested already. Once you see how that looks, then move on to your other ideas--desk, bar, etc. Grover's idea for a sofa table displaying photos or art work is just great because it opens up the window and curtain space. Going forward, Keep in mind that you have all brown flooring--a "fourth wall"--massive brown sofa, big black TV set, brown table in the niche, and brown coffee table. Enough with the brown! Notice how great your curtains look. Add light pillows or pieces with color or other finishes than brown. Good luck!...See MorePls help me tie together living room
Comments (7)Hi Lynnea, apologies for the delay. I created a 3D version of your room based on the plan you provided. Let the room look n feel open and spacious.You can have the main seating area in the fireplace room. I placed an open tall unit in the corner to make use of the space.The TV unit is placed on the wall opposite to the sofa so it can be viewed from any part of the room. If you can get rid of the built in, it would be better. If not you can use the space to place books and decor items. Add a chair, floor lamp and plant to create a reading space. If the TV is placed inside the built-in, watching TV from the far end of the room may not be very comfortable. This layout creates 2 separate areas that can easily be used as one. Hope this helps. We could work on more layouts too if you'd like any changes....See MoreCan paint help tie clashing tile and counter together?
Comments (28)Thanks, all! I appreciate the confirmation. I abandoned the idea of painting the tile and have come around to the combination. It doesn't not work. :) I've spent the last two weeks absolutely obsessing over color. Someone on here suggested BM Steam, which I think is almost perfect, but I need something slightly darker. Am contemplating doing a different shade on the ceiling and on the far wall. Has anyone here used Farrow and Ball? Any opinions on whether it's worth the extra money? We'd probably use a regular (less expensive) primer. I know it sounds crazy to spend that much time/money obsessing over the color of my walls, but when we first moved in I painted our walls BM Classic Gray but 30% lighter on a whim and have hated it every day for five years. It's this anemic blah color that just drains the surroundings. I want something really beautiful. Anyway, thanks do much for the feedback!...See MoreHelp!! Help us tie this busy bathroom together
Comments (23)You’ve got pattern on the floor, pattern in the shower, pattern on the wall, pattern on the counter. Too much! It’s not the colors, it’s the pattern and they are all different styles. You have shiplap and farmhouse style floors and then very modern shower tile. Something has got to go, what is it? That depends on the style you decide. The cheapest option would be to get rid of the shiplap and change the counter. I still don’t like the floor tile with the shower tile though, they are two completely different styles. Good luck...See MoreRelated Professionals
