Living room - eclectic living room idea in Nashville

Hits all the marks in coziness and design. This living room combines wood, metal, leather, wool and other durable and comfortable fabric choices, in light and dark hues, creating a perfect mixture of textures that compliment each other beautifully. The selections from various manufacturers include a Hancock and Moore leather sofa, wood chairs by Lexington, Tommy Bahama Collection, 2 High-back swivel chairs in a neutral fabric by Century, and Palecek petrified wood waterfall tables on hand-hammered wrought iron bases in a bronze finish and branch floor lamp. A Global View two-drawer chest with inn pulls separates the century swivels. Everything works in unison to create a whimsical yet rustic feel. Many of the clients personal items were included in the design process to make this space unique and interesting. The antique bench makes a perfect coffee table. The hide rug adds interest and sets wood-encased swivel chairs apart and the wheel end table brings in a "Motor City" influence. It can be placed in front of or behind the chairs in this design. The exceptional, custom-built Rough Sawn wood bookcase by Harborview Building of Petoskey, houses a 60" TV behind sliding barn doors on Aspen black-iron hardware. The added beams and frames to display an antique postcard collection, add warmth to this large space surrounded by windows. Two pillows in hide on the sofa and with sewn-on embellishments on the Century swivel, high-back chairs complete the look. Neutrals have been contrasted with a patterned Loloi (Hermitage Tobacco) rug to add a splash of color and highlight different finishes throughout the room. As a bonus, this patterned rug will hide just about anything. The hide rug under the wood-framed chairs adds interest and sets apart a separate sitting area while complimenting the overall look of the room. ©2018 All Rights Reserved, Photography by Mike Gullon

This is the third of 3 master bedrooms in the main house. This is another room where the focus was to add contrast in color. The walls were painted in a soft green to brighten the space and give a nice background to the rich green and chocolate brown in the bedding. This project was furnished as a high end rental and because the closets were so well fitted with drawers, shelves and hanging space we decided not to add dressers to the bedrooms, instead, a reclaimed wood style desk was added. This gives a space for a laptop a place for organizing personal items.

This customer had an odd little nook in her primary guest bathroom of unused space. We built in this small cupboard with some glass display shelving above for small trinkets, some cubbies for rolled up towels, and drawers below for storing more personal items.

This was a unique project for us at City Front Terrace in the harbor of Downtown San Diego. We had a blast with our clients here as they had some very unique and personal items they had collected from their travels over many years. Some furniture pieces they wanted to hold on to but were open to repurposing. We were able to find a way to combine both HIS and HER design preferences and needs into one cohesive plan that kept all of their favorite pieces and made them SHINE!
