Recently, I was given the opportunity to work with a beautiful family in their gorgeous home on a complete re-design of their two story great room. The space was beautiful to start with. However, it wasn't conducive to the young family that lives there.
(Before)
(After)
They wanted a room that's warm, inviting and casual. A space that beckons friends, family and pets to cozy up on the couch for movies and intimate conversions.
A room that is both beautiful and livable.
My clients words were; "I want a room that my whole family wants to be in, together, at the same time".

My clients words were; "I want a room that my whole family wants to be in, together, at the same time".
To accomplish this, we started with comfortable new furnishings and a fresh wall color. The next items on the agenda were a custom built-in bookcase, new fireplace surround and ginormous (70 inch) flatscreen TV.

We are about halfway finished, still waiting on furniture delivery.
Stay tuned to see more of this makeover as it's completed.
Thank you, Mark and Heidi, forallowing me to invade inviting me into your home.

brilliant!!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that built in!! SO gorgeous and love the way you styled it!! :)
ReplyDeleteUmmmm, that is an amazing transformation! Seriously one of my favorite built-ins I have ever seen. And I'm a sucker for built-ins, I've debated fitting one in our living room. It looks like this family will be able to cozy up just like they wanted to!
ReplyDeleteThis room is stunning!! Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteWould love to know the paint color as well. My living room is that exact same color of yellow in the before picture and would love to have it look like the after.
ReplyDeleteMy living room is the same exact yellow in the before pictures. Would LOVE for it to look like the after. Would you mind sharing the name of the gray color? I am done with the yellow.
ReplyDeleteLookin' great!! Love that built-in and the styling!
ReplyDeleteI freaking love the built ins.
ReplyDeleteOh my - just gorgeous!!!!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely! Is it ever a problem when flat screens are put over fireplaces due to the heat when the fire is lit?
ReplyDeleteWOW! It looks great! Featured it :-)
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how much I love this - I would love something like this for my family room. I just can't figure things out in there. I have always envisioned something like this in there but we have a corner fireplace so I don't know if a huge bookshelf next to it would look weird - love love love this
ReplyDeleteWow! We are literally finishing a project this weekend that looks almost the same - this will give me some great ideas for the shelves...Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeletewow! this looks amazing! and I love the wall color too. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing. I love the built ins and the gorgeous fireplace surround. The crown above the tv is the icing on the cake.

What is the paint color??????????
ReplyDeleteI have to ask -- please what is the paint color? I will say I love that this is a family room, yet has a sophisticated style with the built-ins and of course, that paint color.
ReplyDeleteHow did they do the stone on the fireplace? did they tear out the old tile or did they tile over it with the stone? I'm wanting to do something similar with my fireplace.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! But what do you do with the TV components, cable box, and cords?
ReplyDeletereading is soo fundamental lol...was searching around your blog and found ur grey board!! - Fawn Brindle Sherwin Williams.
