Warming Up a Great Room
In a room this large and tall, we have to perform a balancing act: make the space feel warm and inviting while retaining that luxurious feeling of spaciousness. We kept the wood floor and refinished it in a cozy brown tone to echo the ceiling. In between floor and ceiling, we continued the soft-cool color palette that gives the home its bright personality. Our clients love to gather family and friends here, so we opted for two long sofas, a pair of chairs shown in the photo below and a couple of ottomans tucked behind the sofas that can be moved wherever needed for extra seating. We selected all of the lighting, including the large, open chandelier in black metal. It references the color and material of the upper stairway railings and the new sconces leading to the second floor.
