Dining Table Solutions

This table needed a fresh looking timeless centerpiece. Our solution was botanically correct silk phalaenopsis orchids with green accents in a classic urn. This is more cost effective than having a fresh centerpiece every week or even keeping a plant alive. The white orchids awaken the senses while working with the fabric colors without trying to match them.

Getting the Party Started

 The party starts with a good conversation group. Our client wanted a living and game room space that naturally attracts guests to gather. Because the room does not have a television, we changed the furniture grouping from a theater style to a cozy circle more suitable for socializing and games.

Adding a live palm warmed the space; creating an inviting atmosphere. We positioned side tables to accommodate drinks or snacks as well as a lamp for additional lighting. Our client wanted to include two beloved art pieces from his travels, so we chose accent jars for the tables to bring their aqua hues into the space. Turquoise vases continued the accent color and balanced the mantle space. We finished the look with a silk ivy plant harmoniously grouped with candlesticks on the coffee table. This beautiful, simple space will invite guests to gather for years to come.

Removing the never played piano and floating the desk in the center of the office gave the illusion of more space.

A new tall cut work black bookcase was added to accentuate the tall ceilings and holds books as well as frames. A few chunky accessories broke up the monotony of all reading material and created interest.

The homeowners' chair was re-positioned to face the desk. A soft gold throw brings out the wall
 color, a flower pillow brings texture and contrast. We gathered family photos from every wall, making one collage composition to state the importance of the collection.

Clarifying a Wedding Vision

Planning a wedding can be difficult for a bride on the go, especially for one who goes to school full time. Our bride (who is currently a college student) needed to make decisions while preparing for final exams. She decided to have a pre-wedding run through with her coordinator, lighting technician, caterer, and florist at the venue.

This meeting helped refine our bride's wedding vision. The lighting was planned in tandem with our flowers to stay true to the bridal color palate. Linens were chosen and menu items sampled. Everyone left with a clear idea of what the big day will be like. Now our bride can focus on passing her finals!

We brought in timeless landscape art subdued in color. The addition of a wall clock anchored a weaved motif chest, holding a printer, papers, and other objects that otherwise clutter a space. Nicely contained!

Refined Home Office: Part 1

A young professional couple was ready for a grown up elegant office that spoke of sophistication. We used an existing chair, kept the family art, and re-purposed a few things. However, most of the furniture needed updating. We started with a timeless rug under a solid black desk and a new upholstered chair as the anchor of the room.  

A girthy black lamp with a soft pleated shade appealed to both husband and wife. This was exactly what the room needed for function and scale.
