Modern Townhome Living & Dining Room
Decorilla Designer: Anna Y. | Client: Andreea
Overall Budget:
5k-10k
Project Title:
Modern Townhome Living & Dining Room
Project Description:
We are moving into a new townhome and would like help with our color palette, visualizing how different layouts work, and finding furniture and decor pieces that suit our style. We'd like our living room to balance both beauty + style and comfort + function. For example, we'd like our couch to face the tv so we can sit back and comfortably enjoy a movie. We'd like to brighten up the space and make it feel more open and inviting. The living room space is a bit awkward (long and narrow), so we're having a hard time figuring out the best way to fill it with furniture / decor.

I want this room to feel more masculine/feminine/neutral:
Neutral

Late afternoon light
What do you currently dislike about the room?:
The wall color really darkens the room and we like bright spaces. We plan to paint everything white, likely Simply White, but we are open to suggestions.
The hardwood color is outdated and too yellow, so we are staining it to a more natural looking wood color.
The chandeliers are definitely very outdated so we would like to replace those with more modern light fixtures.
We'd like to remove the blinds on the windows and have curtains instead.
We’d like to explore what it would look like to create an arch (instead of the square) on the shared dining room and kitchen wall.

What pieces of existing furniture, lighting, art or accessories do you want to keep in the design?:
The built in bookshelves - though we'd like to explore how to make them a prettier / more interesting feature.
The railings - however, we'd like to explore what black balusters might look like instead.

Additional comments to designers:
We would like the space to be bright, inviting, and warm. We love plants, so we'd like to incorporate a big plant into the living room. We'd also love to have a mirror either in the living or dining room, if it fits well somewhere in the space.
