One Room ~ Three Views
As our floors have the greatest impact in the room, they are the best starting point to establish decor themes and color palettes. Whenever possible, the floor comes first. Think of your floor as the platform for your building blocks, adding one at a time and balancing as you build. Working from the floor up we've recreated this stunning concept room with three different views rich in our design strategy of "the floor comes first". Complimenting the flow of the room by defining the space and softening the lines with our featured must haves. We've limited our "views" to our three favorites . . .
The concept for our first view to completing the room's decor is luxe finishes. We've defined the seating area with an area rug by Jaunty in Huntley Gray. The grayish tones of the rug shown lend a hue of Jade that introduces subtle color. We are complementing the windows with these choices of decorative drapery hardware and our favorite fabric pick for drapery panels is Fabricut's Studio Cut Velvet collection. These stunning fabric patterns will also be combined to create custom pillows for the sofa, thus, carrying the windows into the room setting. The mix of traditional accessories with the contemporary design adds a sophisticated palette to this setting.
View Two . . . A walk into the wild.
Although I do love the streamlined look in contemporary stylings, I do crave movement and the movement we've selected is the area rug - remember, the floor has the greater impact. Created by Kane Carpets is Westmoreland Zebra and it is the perfect pick to bring the accent wall color further into the space and offers a lush softness for cozying up on the sofa.
Woven Wood Shades is our textural element and can be made in different styles. Shown here as a standard folding shade, but we also love the look of gliding panels for the selection too. All embellished with our trim choice "Hollywood" by Robert Allen Fabrics. The fabric choice for a decorative table runner and pillows is also from Robert Allen Fabrics's collection "Innerweave". With this grouping we've balanced the space by drawing on the darker tones throughout.
And, our final view - Plush and playful.
Of course, we had to go with a shag for our area rug. Expected? Possibly. Sometimes the expected choice is the way to go especially with quality ingredients. This selection from Jaunty in Sierra White compliments the sofa, offering a great contrast to the floor, and keeping our eye on the prize. The prize in our "Plush and Playful" setting is the light fixture! We cannot ignore this burst in the room any longer and have offered up the selection of patterned sheer fabrics to be presented at the windows in drapery. To further our play on the light a solid fabric color choice is at hand by Gianti. The solid fabric placement can be banded, blocked with the sheer drapery panels, and coordinated just so for decorative pillows.
One room with three views. . .
The room we featured is from our friends at US Floors. At first glance, we see hardwood flooring, possibly an exotic cherry wood. Ahhhhh, I was taken in as well. This floor, this stunning floor, is CoreTec Plus Vinyl Planking in Gold Coast Acacia. Truly remarkable and very practical.
I've been so intrigued by this room and all the decor possibilities it presents. The concept in our design strategy remained the same with all three views - Add area rugs to define the seating area, Offer window treatment ideas that flow through with decorative fabrics for the room. As easy as 1 ... 2 ... 3 ... to the Perfect Pair - flooring and area rugs that is!
