We updated the classic Chesterfield sofa by using a menswear type fabric for the upholstery. The addition of a modern shag rug mixes with the the client's carefully curated antiques and mementos for a comfortable and inviting living room. The custom upholstered ottomans create additional seating as well as a division between the two seating areas.

Inspiration for a farmhouse living room remodel in Boston

design by Pulp Design Studios | http://pulpdesignstudios.com/ This home was designed with a casual lifestyle and multiple kids in mind. Furnishings in the open concept living areas are functional as well as relaxing. Earth tones and natural finishes provide the perfect backdrop to showcase the clients’ mementos from travels to Asia and Africa.

This house remodel was a large undertaking from the very start. Our client, had being in the military for some years and traveled throughout the world, had lots of mementos and artifacts he wanted cleverly displayed within the house without some sort of trophy room and without the space looking cluttered. This home started with a slew of structural issues, mold, termites, and electrical hazards throughout. After totally replacing certain walls and a total renovation, this client had his dream home finally come to life.

Summer fun is gone. So sad! But think of the great memories we will build again next year, with our easy-to-find gear for pool, beach and outdoor play! Autumn is happily available. This house will smile in color. Winter items are not yet sorted because they'll soon be out and enjoyed. Purging those will happen soon.
