Hello my Friends! I hope you guys have had a incredible week and are looking forward to a fantastic weekend! I'm in a hmm, not melancholy, but maybe a more thoughtful or placid mood. Yes, placid, that's it! And so these are the images that spoke more to me than any others I contemplated for this posting!
The silk upholstered French sofa is very feminine. The soft curves of the frame and it's delicate stance is beautiful; very lady-like. The rhythm of the patterns and colors from the damask wall covering, to the lace fabric on the drum ottoman flows so nicely; like poetry or a sweet melody. A dose of modern flair with the lamp and abstract painting is just the crescendo the space needed.
The most striking element in the room is the cerulean blue velvet sofa with it's shades of green pillows and one in soft powder blue. The stool upholstered in green with gold gilt legs is stunning. My eye moves to the walls and the details that it holds. I'm curiously attracted to the profile of the arm chairs. I would find these chairs comfortable to sit in with my feet placed firmly on the floor, but someone of average height would be more comfortable curled up enjoying all the room has to offer.
Where is my daughter's box of crayons when I need them? What a lovely shade of pink this is! The clean lines and subtle tufting takes away some of the girly femininity of the sofa, making it not so offensive to those of the masculine persuasion. It also helps to have sleek framed leather chairs flanking such a sofa. I wish I could get a better view of the floor! From what I can see, it is gorgeous! All of this against the backdrop of the gray classical architecture of the room! Wow!
You know, it's funny just contemplating what I am going to call this piece of funiture. It is called a settee, a sofette, and a love seat! I guess it is whatever strikes your fancy! I'm sure there is some historical tidbit that explains the difference; as there is a difference between a couch and a sofa! I'm finding that gray velvet upholstery looks amazing paired with every color imagineable! I would love to have a piece like this in my living room or bedroom. Outfitted in a different fabric, it would look simply handsome in a gentleman's office or library. Can you see that? I love the contrast of the light wash of the wood plank flooring juxtaposed with the charcoal walls! Isn't it striking? It's like light radiating up only to be absorbed the higher it reaches...
I'm not crazy about the patchwork upholstery on this sofa, but I do like it in this space! It works! The windows and draperies are what I'm excited about! I can't get enough of natural lighting and the fabric that is chosen to frame the source. Did you notice the crystal chandelier? How do you feel about shag rugs? I love them! I used a really plush one in a bedroom project that feels so good under foot! This really is a very nice and charming vintage space that has elements of loveliness!
Make it AMAZING!
Rhonda
