Help designing living room, hanging artwork, what to add?
Comments (49)BeverlyFLADeziner Peter, some of the advice you receive is not worth anything. ------------- No need for insults. Don't take my word for it. Feel free to look at all the threads that say, I painted my walls gray or purchased a gray sectional or installed gray carpet, what is wrong with my room? The problem is almost always because the gray is fighting with oak floors or tan walls or warm whites. Yes, gray and tans can work together but it takes decorating skill. If you are a decorating novice, make your life easier. Stick with the same color tones. On my screen the sofas show as dark brown. If they are in fact black, a warm dark wall would still help balance and work with the predominant tones in the room....See Moreideas for art work on this wall?
Comments (13)IMO you buy art because you love it not because it “goes “ with the decor. I think one of the giant floral wallpapers would be great on that wall. BTW wood slat blinds and that chandelier do not work together...See MoreHELP!!! Art work placement plus Entryway console
Comments (33)I have no help to add about the art but I do love the colorful rug @celery showed I the last post. Something dramatic with that gorgeous green in it will tie the room together. Your dining table is stunning! And the green chairs are a happy surprise ( most dining rooms have all chairs the same)....See MoreArts and Crafts fireplace similar in design to the Prairie in Wayzata
Comments (25)the scale of living room wall where the fireplace is sits on is 26' of space next to 12'ft wide open concept dining area whihc include anther 10 foot of tall windows, followed by 15 open concept kitchen on the other side of the dining room. the area designated to the fireplace sits to the left of 2-6'4 x3' picture windows and the right of another 6'4"x3' then a 2' wall followed by 10' width of picture windows in the dining room. It is a very wide open area. So the fireplace shouldnt dwarf the width, but you are right I will need to make the scale the pictured fireplace shorterby 2'ft in heigth since by ceiling height is only 10'. I reach out to my builder. Thank you for clearing up that saved me a bunch of heart ache.Thank you Roy and Gillian!!...See Morechinacatpeekin
