My goal was to create a cozy yet elegant space where we can kickback and relax and also entertain. I wanted to keep the neutral tones and use the dark beams as a starting point for the design. Adding comfortable furniture but also a statement chandelier and vintage inspired accents. 

Phase 2: building a custom, built-in media center coming later this year!

It’s often the final finishing touches that truly transform the vibe of a room. I picked up some final styling pieces from @wayfair , I am obsessed with both side tables. They are both statement pieces. And the personal photos, candle, heart trays and leather pillows are why bring the warmth and personal touches into this space.

I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendl I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendly sofa that passes the designer test! This is the 5-Seat Modular Corner Sectional from @7thavenueco in the color Oatmeal Beige. We ordered it in the extra-deep seat option for ultimate coziness. The material is water-repellent, stain-resistant and you can also throw all covers in the wash!

We cannot say enough great things about this sofa, we all love it and just sink into it. It definitely passes the family test. Plus, it truly is gorgeous. It looks very chic. 

Comment SOFA and I’ll send you the link to this exact one!
