This guest bedroom has a soft romantic feel thanks to the antique wrought iron bed and beaded chandelier. The dominant coloration in the space is a soft cream with the addition of rich yellow and rust notes. Adding a personal and inviting touch to a guest suite can be as simple as including a handmade quite or special family mementos. Julie Soefer

This entire property holds so many mementos. Not only from the owner’s travels but also from the history of the land itself. Prior to our Africa Safari home, this land had a home designed by John H. Howe, one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s first apprentices. The house was torn down; however, this outdoor living area was preserved and used in the backyard design of our Africa Safari home.

This Annandale basement remodel included the addition of a full bedroom (with walk in closet) and full bathroom, kitchenette/bar area, play area, and a large, comfortable area for watching movies or hanging out. Included in the remodel were beautiful built-ins surrounding the media center, perfect for storing gaming devices, books, mementos, or memorabilia. The possibilities are endless with this remodel!

Debby Adelman We transformed a crowded home office in to a light and airy work place. We reconfigured the closet and brought in cabinets for storage and floating shelves for their mementos. The palette was inspired by the roman shades. We added some fun accents with the Big Ben desk lamps. It seem fitting since the clients are from the UK.

So my client is a world traveler and had lots of artifacts and special mementos to display of things they collected over the years. They wanted a nice and simple, but not your traditional wall unit to showcase some of the pieces. With keeping all of their furniture in mind, I went with a very open yet more modern unit to compliment the room and also leave open shelf display for their cherished memories. #designsbyamy #closetfactory #customdesigned Closet Factory #wallunits #egger #simplystated
