Before And After: A Stylized Eichler

For the past month or so, I've been helping a family update their Eichler home.  In just a few basic steps, their light-filled space has taken on the functional needs of a family of four as well as some stylistic touches to honor the home's design.  Firstly, we selected a bold [darker] color to accentuate a focus wall that extends from the entryway to the dining area.  Secondly, we repositioned the existing furniture and decided what new items to purchase.  Lastly, we accessorized the transformed living space with bowls, books, art, and of course, botanicals.  There are still a few items on the "to do and get" list, but my clients are in control now and can proceed on their own.  Take a look at the space before and after:

Below are the room inspirations that inspired that transformation:

Room Inspiration: A Modern Mid-Century Living Room

I built this room inspiration around a leather sofa owned by my clients. Its mid-century inspired design is a perfect fit for the Eichler home they live in and their passion for that era's style.  We're working on adding color, texture and period appropriate accents throughout their main living areas.  I'm excited to mix newly found vintage pieces and contemporary ones that will hold up to the demands of a growing family.  Stay posted for project updates.

Room elements:

Sculptural Chaise Lounge Chair,  Mulberry Tripod Floor Lamp, Chimayo Throw, sideboard, Petrie Sofa, Cavett Leather Chair, Safavieh Beltram Rug, and Spindle Side Table.
