Before and After: Living Room Redo

Before

After

Donna Reynolds and Mary Desiderio, members of the Interior Redesign Industry Specialists (I.R.I.S.), reposition the furniture and accessories in a recently remodeled living room to create a more comfortable space. Here's how they did it:

The furniture is pulled away from the walls to create cozy conversation areas. The sofa, chair and coffee table are placed on an angle facing away from the window.
To add weight and height, a dark wood secretary is placed against one wall. The doors are left open to reveal the intricate woodwork and showcase the silver accessories.
Architectural items collected throughout the house are presented as a theme on another wall. The vertical arrangement of the accessories mirror the height of the secretary.
Three lamps are placed around the room for ambiant lighting. Various floral and fruit accessories add interest to the side tables and clipped branches add height to the fireplace mantel.
