10 years ago
I have this space under stairs and would like to decorate it. Could you please help on that?

    Sabi - your stair is very modern and your wallcovering very traditional . .so I think you want to do something that is a juxtaposition of the two . . consider a very traditional trio of planters in different sizes and shapes but very architectural, nearly contemporary plant forms .. succulents that don't need much light or water won't be any trouble but will be very interesting . .

    Pots of the same material . . (low and wide for under the landing, tallest / urn like at the far left, maybe round and short at right?) with very contemporary succulent plants . . .something like (green-gray aloe, bronze or variegated flax, and kangaroo paw (flowering succulent plants are very interesting architecturally . . and kangaroo paw has one in a dark dark maroon sort of red that would accent your wallpaper) . .. succulents don't require much water .. .. make an architectural statement with plants ..

    How about a lovely library and seating area. This is a beautiful spot to have a curved bookcase and love seat area

    I agree with Pauline's suggestion! A curved bookcase would be so beautiful and it would really fill that spot nicely!

    Need more info please. Are you renting? Or own? Do you want Wow feature, or something more functional? How much do you think you want to spend here? I have a custom idea and a more functional concept in mind. Post your needs, and desires so we can taylor our suggestions and options to your basic needs. Thanks.

    I'm owning and I want wow feature but not something huge as half of that area is already full with a sofa set. And I don't know how to decorate that area.

    This is the other half of the sitting area

    If you would like to have a small, additional seating area - you could do something like this... electric fireplace.

    I live in a very hot country. Fireplace won't fit with the weather

    Is this area considered as an entry area or is it another part of living room? If it is an entry a nice console table with a mirror and perhaps a plant.

    Since wall is curved a nice round table would work

    It's a good idea but unfortunately it's not the main entry

    This is more in context to your area but no table cover. A beautiful round wood table with a artistic arrangement you could change according to the season.

    Is it considered a sitting area? Dining area? How was it designed to function?

    Many thanks dear Katherine

    It's sitting area and usually we serve food on the carpet if there are guests, we eat on the floor usually when the number is huge. But my idea was to put a dining table for 12 people.

    Hi Sabi, given your explanation on how you want to use the space, I think this would be so pretty. To many great meals with family and friends!

    If you are going to use a rug ,get a round one , a table would look nice there
