Formal Living Room
http://www.dawnhearn.com

Our clients wished for a complete room and furnishings update, with the baker's rack as the only item that had to remain in the space. They wanted a formal space for entertaining that was comfortable enough for everyday use.

We added crema marfil tiles to the fireplace surround. We repainted the walls and added a contrasting band of color to the ceiling to break up the wide, flat expanse of the original white ceiling. Long drapery panels add vertical drama to the space. The fact that they are hung much higher than the window is concealed by a mock roman shade. Layers of accessories and art add to the casual elegance of the room.

The hardwood flooring is beautiful. Who is the manufacturer and what is the color? »
· Comment · 4 months ago
Dawn Hearn Interior Design Carwill, I wish I could answer your question. The wood is original to the building of this house in the 1980s. I was hired to furnish and update this room a few years ago, so I did not specify the wood floor. Good luck in your flooring search!

What are the exact colors of the wall and the ceiling please? »
· · Comment · 5 months ago
Dawn Hearn Interior Design The walls are Benjamin Moore HC-38 Decatur Buff. The dark accent band on the ceiling is Benjamin Moore 1062 Baked Cumin. The center of the ceiling is Benjamin Moore 1044 LIghthouse Landing. The white trim is a custom match to the client's existing trim work throughout the house.

Love the fireplace mantel! Is it custom designed, or by chance, a pre-fab? - Also, can you tell us the paint colors? Thank you for a beautiful room! »

Dawn Hearn Interior Design The fireplace was in place before I came on to the project. I wish I had more information to share with you!

I have a regency horizon hz42, could I put crema marfil split behind it with all the heat that comes out? »

Dawn Hearn Interior Design Sharon,

I am not quite sure what your needs are. I would recommend that you talk to a licensed contractor to answer your heat question. I wish you the best in your renovations!

Dawn Hearn Interior Design For the accent band, Sherwin Williams 6117 Smokey Topaz would be similar. It is a brownish soft rust. It looks more brown online than it is in the actual room. Hope that helps!
