Modern/Retro Living Room

The homeowners' bits and pieces are coordinated into a modern yet retro living room.

Design Remix : Episode HDMIX-411 -- More Projects »
An eclectic blend of hand-me-downs and found items dominates homeowners' Susan Donaldson and Scheffer Ely's living room. There is a style sense here; it's just not showcased. The room could use a place to sit with guests, too. Host Karen McAloon instills some unconventional design elements to create a retro/modern living room that's both fashionable and functional.

Before: Hand-Me-Down Haven
Next: After: Renewed Déjà Vu
Much in this room has been given to the homeowners by family members. What the room lacks in seating, it more than makes up for in ottomans. Somehow they've managed to acquire interesting, but not very useful, pieces from relatives. The homeowners are afraid this trend will continue and they'll lose their living room to myopic collections.
