Home Decorating Design Dilemma

Panels or no Panels?

7 years ago

So hearing about furniture placement and that it might be challenging to do panels in this room. Question is can I go without? What can I do to add to this room if not with panels?

Hi. I like the rug and its open pattern, and neutral. With informal furniture, I think there's a unity among the items. Fluff pillows and white tray, hey it's good! [in other words, no curtains imo]

Thank you! So going without panels would look ok with the informal furniture?

I think that panels give a more finished appearance. Pull the sofa away from the wall in order to make room for panels. Don't you sometimes raise the shades for natural light?

Grapefruit I have moved the sofa off the walls on both sides. Sometimes yes I will raise the blinds for natural light.
