Entrance Dilemma
Comments (9)Don't forget to add lighting to this space - a lamp or two is very welcoming when you come home and creates atmosphere in the evening especially in a hallway. For something different you could try pendants over a table which I recently installed for a client (click on the link to see in my facebook photos). Just be careful not to over clutter this space - select large statement pieces, art, lamp, table. Quality over quantity to keep it functional.

Comments (9)It would off been nice too have a few photos of the room from different angles as this would help with ideas on what wall would be best for the feature wall. To break up all that mirror you could use a spring loaded curtain rod and using a light weight fabric with either tabs or grommets for the rod to go through so that you can pull the fabric aside when you need to use the mirror or to get something out of the wardrobe. In the past when I use to rent, I use to fold up and take down the blinds and then used spring loaded curtain rods inside the window bay and place in light weight fabric nets or a nice shear fabric used in dressmaking to add some colour to the room. I am not a big fan of blinds I find them in personal and cold. Depending on your colour likes, you could use red through to orange. Red and yellow being a prime colour and as such orange is a companion colour made from the primaries and that's why they work so well together. Day lilies have bold red through to yellow so this could be a guide for that palette choice. Don't use black is too bold with yellow, but using mid to light ranged greys are good. Creams and whites will work look at the daffodil range for colour inspiration there. Always look at what colours can be made from yellow and a second primary colour as this will give you your shades to soften the primaries down. Yellow - Red = oranges Yellow - White = creams Yellow - Blue = greens By doing this I think you might find the colour combo that you will like, and it's not just the primaries that you can use look at the second primaries and see what goes with the yellow and try mixing it up a little. At the end of the day it's a bedroom so you don't want loud colours, you will want soft warm colours that help with calming but also romantic too. I hope that you manage to find something that you will like in the end :-) just enjoy the journey of discovery :-) Angela...See Morestyling dilemma
Comments (8)It would be great if you could send more pics of the room. The pattern on chair and cushion is pretty. I would take the cushion when you shop. Probably plain block coloured cushions would be best. You may consider deeper blues, greys or a mustard. Hard to advise on a rug and coffee table without seeing the whole space....See MoreRug and cushion dilemma
Comments (23)The orange modular is a huge statement but you recognize that there is nothing to “connect the pieces together” a simple abstract art piece showcasing the orange, grey and white , black will “Tie” your theme together and place it just about the lounge on the large white wall.. remember not that small so think scale! Your lounge is large so I think a portrait size piece ( hung vertically not landscape) approximately 300mm above your lounge would be a perfect addition. If that is too hard for you to imagine perhaps a bowl on the coffee table with hints of orange grey and white to connect the elements.. Your missing a degree of “softness” some texture so rather than cushions ( which I don’t think ever really work with a leather lounge) perhaps a textured throw combining your colour scheme.. no solid colours... Just a suggestion is the art piece below! If you can’t imagine print a couple of images from Pinterest on A3 paper do you can see if you like the style of painting!...See Morejulie herbert
