Before and After Updates {A Client’s Living Room}

July 16, 2014 by Amber Filed Under: before and after, design, e-decorating, e-design, interior design, personal design style 6 Comments

I have some wonderful updates of a client project to show you today! A little while back, an e-design client contacted me to help bring a more eclectic, bohemian style to her living room. This space is directly off of the foyer and is the space they gather when entertaining and spending time with their family. We kept some of her current furniture pieces and accessories, but added many new pieces to finish the look. I showed you the design plan a few posts back, but here is a refresher..

The Design Plan

Here is her reading nook {the top left corner of the room} before…

And here is the after…

I love the new light wall color and the way her chair and bookcase fit into the design plan. The corner gallery wall is fun for a space like this. It adds depth to this side of the room, giving the illusion of more space. The woven ottoman adds interesting texture and is a great way to break up all of the upholstery pieces seen in the seating.

She also made progress on the fireplace mantel. Here is the before…

And here is the after…

After


The mirror and waterscape vases bring a more eclectic, unique vibe to the room, which was exactly what she was looking for. The room had great bones, but it was more traditional in style than she wanted. We removed the oversized chairs and replaced them with more streamlined, modern seating. I can’t wait to show you more progress to come!

Thanks to my amazing client for allowing me to share these sneak peeks and her great progress!

The glow is so pretty at night and it transformed that original to the home chandelier! #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #bhghome #hgtv #myballardstyle #yespb #sharemygrandin #diningroom #livingroom

The chandelier looks so much bigger for this space. The second image shows the before, so you can also compare! Sometimes, you don’t have to replace the whole light fixture. One new, small idea can make all the difference. Thanks so much @frontgate #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #hgtv #bhghome #loveyourhabitat #diningroom
I’m excited for some chandelier shades to arrive I’m excited for some chandelier shades to arrive for our dining room fixture. This light was here when we moved in and I think adding the cream shades will make the chandelier look bigger in scale and just give it a new look! Stay tuned… #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #sharemygrandin #yespb #myballardstyle #howyouhome #bhghome #hgtv #diningroom

It has been through wind, rain and lots of sunshine and still has that beautiful navy blue color. I wasn’t able to find the exact one, but my Like to Know It page has two very similar options! And if you need me, I’ll be here all weekend! #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #poolside
