Grant Park Cottage - Renovation

New Mood Design LLC

This view from the den shows the new kitchen and island, with a casual seating area to the left of the island. Removing the three walls opened up the space for cooking and entertaining. A coffee table - made from a New Orleans wrought iron gate - is a fine accent piece from the client's existing items that New Mood Design integrated into a sofa grouping.

P+F House

Re-Built Studio

L'appartamento situato nel quartiere Vomero della città di Napoli ha visto una completa rilettura degli spazi, andando ad azzerare la vecchia distribuzione interna, seguendo le esigenze del committente. Ampio spazio soggiorno-pranzo, suddivisione distinta tra spazio giorno e spazio notte, personalizzazione degli ambienti, sono state le chiavi di lettura atte alla riconversione dell'appartamento. La progettazione ha seguito le richieste di arredo su misura, andando a realizzare elementi di falegnameria che si conformassero agli spazi e alle esigenze legate all'uso funzionale degli stessi. Materiali di pregio, quali pavimentazione in doussie d'Africa, pitture decorative a guscio d'uovo e ceramiche a bicottura, hanno reso lo spazio abitativo personale e unico.

RESTYLING IN STILE CONTEMPORANEO/CLASSICO 90 MQ

Polygona

Un progetto di Restyling nel vero senso della parola; quando Polygona ha accettato di trasformare questi ambienti parlavamo di stanze cupe con vecchi kobili di legno stile anni '70. Oggi abbiamo ridato vita a questa casa utilizzando colori contemporanei ed arredi dallo stile un po' classico, per mantenere e rispettare la natura architettonica di queste stanze. Alcuni elementi sono stati recuperati e laccati, tutta la tappezzeria è stata rifatta a misure con accurate scelte di materiali e colori. Abbiamo reso questa casa un posto accogliente e rilassante in cui passare il proprio tempo in famiglia.

A living room, often referred to as a lounge room in Australia and New Zealand, is the hub of the home. If you only have one living room in the house, it’s likely to serve multiple purposes: be it a place to watch TV, play games, spend quality time with family or hang out with friends. If you have the luxury of two living areas, one is usually a formal living room or lounge room, reserved for reading, relaxing and entertaining. A successful living room design is inviting, has enough seating for the whole clan – a comfortable couch is a must – and encourages conversation. Browse photos on Houzz for living room layouts, furniture and decor, and strike up a conversation with the interior designers or architects of your favourite picks.

Which living room layouts will work best for you?

Every living area will have design challenges. A long, narrow lounge room, for example, risks looking like a hallway if furniture is lined up against the walls. Instead, opt for small furniture items, like a cosy two-seater couch, and create various focal points throughout the space. In square living rooms, a symmetrical layout encourages a formal setting. Place seating on either side of the room, with a focal point in the middle to pull the room together. For a truly intimate vibe, replace your couch with some occasional chairs positioned around a coffee table or ottoman. This will make the main focus conversation. An open-plan home – one where the lines are blurred between kitchen, dining and living – may require a layout that focuses on definition. You’ll want to make sure furniture doesn’t block the flow between spaces, and instead use something like an area rug to create zones.

How can you decorate your living room?

The living room can be a place in which to show off your personality, but if you want a timeless living room scheme, stick to neutral walls, couches and ottomans. Colour can be added through accessories, and is a lot more interchangeable! Rugs, cushions and throws are great for adding colour, while mirrors, lamps and ceiling lights will set the mood. Make your living room unique by including family heirlooms and photos. For a polished look, try creating a coffee table vignette – you could use books as pedestals or group items together on a tray. Try adding a vase, a mixture of round and rectangular objects and some books.

What are some small living room ideas?

Small living room designs can be tricky to work with, but aren’t doomed to fail. Often, you just have to get creative with furniture. An open-back chaise can create a sense of spaciousness, while small side tables paired together can substitute a coffee table. Even better, an ottoman can be used as a footrest, coffee table or extra seating. Big furniture items like the couch are best kept in light colours, and if there’s room for a coffee table, a glass-top one is best. If you have two spaces in one – perhaps your living room sits in front of a single-wall kitchen – make sure they are connected by decor, colour and style. For definition, just add area rugs, or use your couch as a dividing wall. It’s worth having a few furniture pieces, whether a bookshelf, couch or entertainment unit, in the same colour as the walls, too, so they blend into the room and visually expand the space.

Is open-plan living for you?

Today’s homes often embrace open-plan living, whereby the living room runs off the kitchen and/or dining areas. Open-plan living allows greater functionality, but can risk creating a vast, soulless space if not done right. To avoid a cavernous feel in an open-plan design, define areas with furniture, rugs and lighting, or consider using a wall divider. Also be sure to keep flooring, lighting and materials consistent throughout, for cohesiveness. Noise may be an issue – someone banging pots and pans while you’re watching TV, for example – so include lots of soft furnishings, such as rugs, curtains and couches to help absorb the noise. You will also need to factor in plenty of storage, so mess is kept at bay.
