The Family Room Continues

The Family Room Continues well it is one of my favorite things to see on my emails. Since this pas t December I have been working with a couple here in Birmingham, we have been working together to make their living room a spot they can really enjoy. First starting with multiple layouts, that would put the focus on various spots in the family room. The family room has a great fireplace but this time the focus places the fireplace on a secondary level. By doing that the client has mentioned to me that now she can actually see her fireplace and enjoy it. But really likes the idea she can now see other ares of the home! It is great when someone can see and understand the reasoning behind your design.




The family room is large so placing a rug in the primary seating area really creates a much needed anchor. Although the space is already carpeted the rug is really complimenting the space.

Our next step is finding the right art work for above the sofa. The client wants to incorporate art that places a focus on family, hobbies, and regional interest. I think it is a great way to involve you guest into your home and your life. Including a picture of traveling, local hot spots, and kids/dog pictures are meaningful and great conversation starter. Here are some quick ideas on layouts I will let you know how it turns out!


I know the images are not that great and the last mock up was a Photoshop quickie so be gentle.
More pictures to come!
