Plain Dining Room

Designer Claire Watkins chose to make over Alix's blue dining room. "Taking my cues from the mid-century modern buffet and the bold colors in the rug, I selected key accessories to finish up the space. A few things I considered in all my selections: scale, shape, color, texture and variety," says Watkins.
