The TV is an important part of the space, whether we like to admit it or not. Flat TVs on the wall free up space, and wireless technology makes installation easier and easier. We added a sleek, midcentury TV console from Pasha to display a sculpture and hide components.

BEFORE - We love to use rich, dark colors, but the client had lived with this pallet for years, and they were ready to make a change. We suggested lightening the window coverings and painting the entire space in shades of white. The Elements
