Living Room

A MODERN ROOM WITH A VIEW!

November 17, 2009

Modern living room with floor to ceiling windows, two taupe sofas with yellow accent pillows, a Noguchi glass coffee table and a red Eero Saarinen Womb Chair
Floor to ceiling wrap around windows in a mid century modern home provide a great outdoor backdrop. The windows help highlight a bright living room that plays host to some modern furniture classics. A Noguchi glass coffee table and a red Eero Saarinen Womb Chair – both designed in the 1940s – are key to bringing simple modern style to this home’s living space. (above)

I like this room. Simple. Modern (am now thinking modern after this weekend’s festivities). Refreshing. The floor to ceiling windows are just right. I always believe there can never be too much natural light in a space…especially when the light comes along with gorgeous views. Love the trees and woods – perfectly framed by the slanted roof line. Love the muted whites, the taupe sofa and sectional, and the pops of yellow and reds – an effortless balance of color and neutrals. Ahhhh….

    This room is perfect. It comes so close to my style. Connected to nature, modern, yet cozy and warm, uncluttered. Simplicity at its best. I couldn’t imagine another rug in there!

    This room is so fun! I love the sporadic displays of yellows and reds throughout a more muted color palette.

    I don’t think I would ever leave my home! I love when architects utilize nature as a part of their creations.

    I literally only have 5 windows in my town home…I’m so jealous of this room.

    I was just in this store coco and the ladies behind the counter were so friendly! Great finds and fabrics and decent prices too. Also just a fun vibe with the open air feel.

The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools rarely get any.
Velvet, woven wood, molded modern, sculptural, cast brass — seven islands, seven completely different takes on where you actually sit down. Some rooms go quiet with it, some go bold. Both work.

An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate.An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate. 🍂
You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎
