One of my favorite things to do after completing a space, is to walk around and remember what it used to be…
You can almost do that now here as well. Isn’t it amazing the difference?
The photos here are from our gold award for the Living Room/Dining Room category for the Design Excellence Awards from the prestigious KC Magazine. They recognize Kansas City’s best interior designers, architects and kitchen designers with gold, silver or bronze awards in a variety of catagories for residential and commercial interior and exterior design. It is always such an honor to have your hard work appreciated. Thank you again, KC Mag!
"Before"
This client was ready for a complete living room transformation. She wanted to have her sectional worked into her custom design. Like so many, she didn’t want to get rid of her oak trim and moldings, but knew the finish looked dated. She loved the crisp contrast between creams and blacks, but wanted a hint of color here and there. She desired the room be warm, spacious feeling, transitional (a look between traditional and contemporary) and traditional in feel, sophisticated and friendly.
"After" my design solutions were installed by our teams.
To fulfill the client’s wishes for a space she would love, I decided some crisper lines would be an essential first step. She loved them. Small patterns add texture and color. Interesting artwork in rich hues and fascinating sconces add warmth and mood for entertaining in the evenings. We exchanged the “common” lamps and accent tables with more unique and handsome pieces to give the room a memorable look. I also chose elegant furnishings for a fuller and more complete layout. Our design using classic lines, hues and a discerning eye have transformed her main living area into a rich, transitional room for her to enjoy every day!
