COCOCOZY DESIGN HOUSE

COCOCOZY Design House: New Dining Room + Gallery Wall Window Coverings

August 6, 2019
  • Share

Finally, the COCOCOZY Design House dining room has new drapery and window coverings! Wanted to share the new look with you. Did I mention that my sister bought the COCOCOZY Design House? Well that story will have to wait for another day! For now, we will just call her and her husband the “new owner”.

There are so many ways to cover windows. With the dining room and gallery wall it was top priority to make sure the curtains were perfect for the space and amplified the design.

This picture window in the dining room looks out over the street.Ā  While the “new owner” mostly keeps the drapes open, it was essential, for privacy, to have some kind of window covering on this large window.

These are the custom two-toned linen drapes I had made for the dining room. The color block curtains are made from 14oz linen in two different colors – an off white and a natural linen. I went back and forth over the color selection. In the end, soft cream and the natural linen were perfect for keeping the dining room light and bright while adding a cozy feel.

I used a curved black iron curtain rod and mounted high on the wall almost to the ceiling. Having the drapes run from floor to ceiling makes everything feel seamless and makes the ceilings feel taller than they are.Ā  If I had mounted the rod right above the window it would have cut the wall in half and made the drapes look less impressive and the wall look cut off.

When I first designed the house, I did not include drapes in my plan. It was too much to think about at the time. I was lucky because the new owner of the house asked me to design all of the new window coverings. I was able to keep my vision for the space.

 

 

BEFORE AND AFTER LINEN DRAPES

Before the drapes, the dining room had more of a crisp and clean feeling – more modern.Ā

After adding the color block drapery,Ā  the light through the window is filtered subtly and creates a softer more inviting space.

BEFORE AND AFTER LINEN ROMAN SHADES

BEFORE – Gallery wall in the dining before shades.Ā

AFTER – Dining room feature gallery wall after custom roman shades were added.

The linen roman shades I designed are bit unique only because we hung them in a different way.. Most roman shades are mounted to cover a third or a portion of the window at all times. I placed them higher above the window in order to let more light in. The addition of shades meant the whole gallery wall had to be moved. In the end, it was well worth the trouble! I can’t image the gallery wall without shades now.

P.S. Will share details on the “new owner” and how she got the house before it even went on the market very soon!Ā

Inside Villa Tasca ā˜€ļø| Does this Italian villa Inside Villa Tasca ā˜€ļø| Does this Italian villa look familiar? This beautiful Palermo pad was featured on HBO’s ā€˜The White Lotus’ during season 2. I always adore Italian architecture. The estate features stone marble floors, Murano chandeliers, and antique painting. So dreamy! Learn more about Villa Tasca on my blog.
