Chris & Julie's Living Room
Designers Edit
The living room exudes a contemporary yet cozy ambiance. A prominent feature is the elegant black fireplace, showcasing intricate tile work and serving as a focal point in the room. Above it, a large round mirror enhances the space by reflecting light and adding depth.
Flanking the fireplace are stylish shelving units, painted in a deep charcoal hue. These shelves are filled with an assortment of books and decorative objects, adding character and personality to the design.
Comfort is prioritized with a mix of thoughtfully selected furniture. A light grey accent chair with a wooden frame provides a relaxing spot, while a rich, dark sofa invites you to sink in with its removable cover for easy maintenance. A textured rug in soft tones anchors the space, providing warmth underfoot.
Natural light filters in through elegant curtains, adding softness to the room. Decorative elements, such as plants and stylish lighting fixtures, enhance the overall aesthetic, merging functionality with artistry.
Design elements artfully come together to create a balanced, sophisticated environment, perfect for both relaxation and entertaining.
Hi Julie & Chris
I’m delighted to share your final room design and product suggestions. Don’t forget to click on the video under your moodboard to watch your virtual design presentation!
Product Suggestions:
If you scroll down from your design you will find your product list with all my recommended items. If you click on "alternatives," you'll find even more options for each category. There’s a favourites button on each product, so feel free to click it! That way, we can chat about your top picks since I’ll be able to see which ones you like best as does your shopper Jess!
I have specified all items based on the dimensions and information you provided in your brief but it’s always worth double checking that you’re happy with the size of larger furniture items/light fittings before placing your order. Also that you have the appropriate delivery access into your property.
Upholstery:
Where possible the shopping support team will organise samples for your upholstered items. It’s really important to check you’re happy with the colour/sample before ordering as colour representation on screens can vary. If you require any additional samples just let them know and they will be happy to help.
Cushion:
Certain retailers supply cushion cover only and it will state this in the title of the item so if you need the inner cushion don't forget to add that to your basket as a separate item.
Paint:
I have included some great paint colour suggestions for your room design with handy links so you can order any samples you want and then your chosen paint directly from the retailer when you are ready. It’s always best to use the retailer's paint calculator, or your decorator's estimate for paint quantity.
If there are any Coat paint colours you love you can use this exclusive discount code to save 20% on any paint purchased directly with Coat CCMBR20
Window Dressing:
You have a unique bay and existing blinds so I would suggest getting an local curtain maker out to measure up, they will be able to advise on the exact tracks/poles that fit. I have included 2 options that I believe could work but it's best to do a full survey. Once you know what track/pole you will go for I have given you some fabric options for the curtains themselves, of course if you know your dimensions you can go with the supplier I have recommended here, or order samples and ask your curtain maker to source something similar.
Wall Mounted Furniture & Shelving:
As per agreed layout, I have included some great wall mounted furniture/shelving options in your room. Please note that different wall materials require different types of fixing devices. It is important to use suitable fixing devices for the walls in your home and also to ensure your walls construction can support the weight. If you are uncertain about what type of fixing devices to use or whether the wall construction is suitable, please contact your local hardware store or your contractor.
Plants:
I have included a couple of real and/or faux plants for your room. You can purchase the real plants through our shopping service if you wish or you can use this as a style guide and source them from a local garden centre.
Art:
I have suggested some great pieces of artwork that I believe will pull together your scheme beautifully. However, art is such a personal choice, so do feel free to use these options as a guide if the pieces I’ve suggested don’t quite hit the mark!
Budget Notes:
The overall room design has been pulled together with your budget in mind, however I have also dropped in a few special pieces that you may want to invest in, as I believe this could bring an additional wow factor and practical touch - like the easy clean sofas and storage footstool. Have a good look through all the alternatives and remember you can swap things around to balance your budget as you like.
Shop Direct:
There is a small selection of retailers who only deliver directly to the account holder, and therefore we are unable to offer it as part of our shopping service. If you do select anything from these retailers there is a handy link on the product which takes you directly to the retailer site.
Once you’ve had the time to digest the design, please let me know if you have any questions. As a reminder, you have two weeks to come back to me with any questions on the design.
Warm Wishes,
Aless
