We’ve been in our home for 4 years now, and for 3 of these years, the entrance room of our home—the formal front room, the very first thing you see from the entrance door—was lovingly referred to as “the soccer room,” which after all was as a result of it was a giant empty house the place my husband, Daniel, arrange a big soccer aim in order that he may play soccer at any second! It was very cool for him and really mortifying for me. So final 12 months we determined it was time to maneuver the soccer to the basement and furnish the room. I’m so glad with the transformation. (Scroll right down to the top of the publish for the record of the place I bought furnishings, lamps, curtains, and many others.)

Transitional Type Residing Room

My residence model is transitional, a mix of conventional and modern (fashionable). I’m drawn to all issues gentle and vivid, neutrals, the grounding high quality of heat wooden tones and pure woven components like jute, wicker, and rattan. I really like the colour blue. And whereas I get pleasure from loads of the fashionable design traits (mid-century clear strains, white sofas, impartial colour schemes, plenty of woven textures), I in the end need my decor to really feel timeless. So I weave conventional, classic items (assume mahogany finish tables, vintage-looking rugs) into that modern aesthetic as a result of they a.) by no means exit of fashion, and b.) add richness and character (in any other case, an all-modern look can really feel just a little chilly and flat).
