Remodeled family room
Example of a trendy living room design in Atlanta

This was an existing house. We completely gutted the interior & removed the roof. We raised the ceilings about 18 inches. After some historical research we were able to bring back some original characteristics of the house that had been lost. We removed countless layers of inappropriate additions & modifications. We restored the home with a new clean modern vocabulary.

The watery Venetian damask from Zoffany sets the mood for this Pied a Terre bedroom. We wrapped the room in a color pulled from the paper, even the doors and moldings are in this color. The wallpaper softens the hard lines of the industrial style metal bed from CB2. To purists the placement of the refurbished Mid Century nightstands with the wallpaper may seem inappropriate, but I think the nightstands are a tailored response to the exuberance of the paper. Also, if you watch TCM on a regular basis you would see such mixes all the time. The Chinese Mirror and Japanese prints reflect my client's interest in Asia and add another layer to the mix.

A large mirror backed wood carving adds a touch of sparkle and intrigue above the master bath’s soaking tub while concealing an inappropriate marble mosaic that failed to enhance the space. Limestone baseboards, door and window casings were added to upgrade the bath, requiring less maintenance.
