The transformation began with the pillow collection in different shades of green, pink, black, white and a pop of coral to create some attention and draw the eye into the room. Filling the sofa with pillows detracts from the age of the sofa and modernizes it.

This former kitchen had a peninsula and was gutted and enlarged to accomodate a new island. Former moulding and cabinetry detail was outdated. The new, bright kitchen features new moulding, flooring, cabinetry, a one-basin porcelain sink, a pot filler, appliances, double ovens, a wine refrigerator, gold cabinetry hardware and lighting. The space is open to a breakfast area and family room.

The existing coffee table and end tables stayed in the room, providing a sense of something old and something new, again connecting and creating a timeless feeling that this room has always existed this way in this home. This adds to that Southern family heirloom feeling and charm, where some items are well loved pieces and others are new and connected to the personality of the home owner.

In every room I design, I love to throw in a whimsical piece, that adds a bit of surprise and is something out of the ordinary. In this room, we accomplished this by adding the green leaf ottoman from Grandin Road in front of the chairs. It continues with the bringing nature into the room theme but in a fun, modern, delightful way with the leaf being unexpected and oversized, instead of just adding a potted plant in the room to accomplish this goal.

Crown moulding was continued throughout the first floor of the home and the new paint color flowed into the Dining Room to add a more cohesive look between the rooms.

back to this reveal... The floral pink and green botanical artwork hanging between the two windows by the piano, is a piece I found in another room of her home, that works great in the space . I added it in here as it coordinated well with the southern vision we are creating. The small storage table below this art was moved from the dining room to between the two windows as it fits perfectly here. The brass cricket sitting on top is another well loved keepsake in the family.

Pantry space is always necessary for storing snacks, pasta and canned goods. The white inset cabinetry has a really clean and sleek look.
