What do you do when you can’t paint the walls?  This was the question we had to ask ourselves when designing a living room for our client in a rental apartment.

We started out by assembling items with varying materials and textures.  The unique quality of the metal mirror and ceramic “Flying Wall Bowls” really make this dining room stand out!  Even our client’s sons’ artwork makes an appearance on these walls! Then your eye is drawn to the deeply saturated valance in a gorgeous burned velvet crocodile print.  The room is illuminated by a beautiful chandelier with an eggshell linen shade, which casts a warm glow on the white walls.

Who wouldn’t want to eat in this hip suburban dining room?
