Bedroom - contemporary carpeted bedroom idea in Phoenix with white walls and a ribbon fireplace

This traditional home contained an outdated kitchen, eating area, powder room, pantry and laundry area. The spaces were reconfigured so that the kitchen occupied all of the space. What was once an opening into an under utilized hallway, became a pantry closet. A full bathroom was tucked behind the pantry into space from the breezeway.

Everyone deserves to end the day in a comfortable, tranquil home. And for those with children, it can seem impossible to reconcile the challenges of family life with the need to have a well-designed space. Our client—a financial executive and her family of four—had not considered a design makeover since moving into their apartment, which was more than ten years ago. So when she reached out to Decor Aid, she asked us to modernize and brighten her home, in addition to creating a space for her family to hang out and relax. The apartment originally featured sunflower-yellow walls and a set of brown suede living room furniture, all of which significantly darkened the space. The living room also did not have sufficient seating options, so the client was improvising seating arrangements when guests would come over. With no outward facing windows, the living room received little natural light, and so we began the redesign by painting the walls a classic grey, and adding white crown molding. As a pathway from the front door to the kitchen, the living room functions as a high-traffic area of the home. So we sourced a geometric indoor-outdoor area rug, and established a layout that’s easy to walk through. We also sourced a coffee table from Serena & Lily. Our client has teenage twins, and so we sourced a sturdy sectional couch from Restoration Hardware, and placed it in a corner which was previously being underused. We hired an electrician to hide all of the cables leading to the media console, and added custom window treatments. In the kitchen, we painted the cabinets a semi-gloss white, and added slate flooring, for a clean, crisp, modern look to match the living room. The finishing touches included a set of geometric table objects, comfortable throw rugs, and plush high-shine pillows. The final result is a fully functional living room for this family of four.

The narrow entry hall meant that organization and storage were key to keeping clutter from spreading into the other areas of the home. The hooks and catchalls make perfect checkpoints for when Ari leaves and comes home. Photo by Manuel Rodriguez

This cozy and modern outdoor seating area centers around a sleek concrete fire pit, providing warmth and ambiance for evening gatherings. A custom-built floating wooden bench adds a rustic, handcrafted touch, contrasting beautifully with the contemporary sectional sofa, which is adorned with colorful accent pillows for a pop of color. The neutral porcelain patio and stone wall create a clean backdrop, while the integrated wall lighting adds soft illumination, enhancing the intimate atmosphere. The mix of materials—wood, stone, and concrete—creates a balanced, inviting space that is perfect for relaxation or entertaining. Whether enjoying the fire or simply lounging with friends, this outdoor living area offers a stylish and comfortable retreat.
