Something a bit more like this! The space still holds some glamorous gems, like the lucite coffee table and velveteen chair (how stunning are the lines in the piece, by the way?), but elements like the sisal rug, country-inspired daybed and industrial desk area bring a casual feel to the room that balances things out so nicely. And let's talk for a minute about that wall! I can't tell if it's faux or real, but the distressed finish is reminiscent of aging frescoes in Italian villas, and therefore quite fantastic, if you ask me! Not to mention a huge space dedicated to an inspiration board. Yes please!
Sadly, I have no idea where this image came from (a little help?) so can't offer much insight to the actual function of this space, but it looks like an office area to me (see the other little desk to the left?) I, however, would feel right at home making this my living room. Would you?

If I were actually in the small space, I might find the black piece, essentially a second desk, too redundant. But I agree that the asethetics are comforting and stylish. Great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI love the soft neutral colors in this room. Beautiful!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous space!! Love the mix of everything!
ReplyDeleteThe wall was the first thing to catch my attention...and the room gives a nice world-traveller-esue vibe!
ReplyDeleteFantastic room, love, love, love the wall!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I always find that combining a mixture of styles helps make things feel more lived in - life is a collection of memories and experiences and homes that have a collection of artifacts and furnishings that reflect that have the most heart. Awesome room!

This space is so perfect in its imperfection!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree on the cozy-ness factor. I would love to be one of those minimalist, but it just wouldn't feel like home.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful space. I love everything from the wall to the comfy looking couch - I think it would be a great place to take a little cat nap! Want to replicate - now!!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more! One of my favorite rooms I've see this week is the room by Giannetti Home in the Gilt & Ashton Kutcher Showhouse. Thought you would like it too...http://prettyinspirational.blogspot.com/2011/02/beautiful-room.html?utm_source=BP_recent
