FRESH & COZY LIVING ROOM!

August 9, 2012

fresh and clean living room with black trimmed windows, white sofas and armchairs with striped accent pillows, a white ottoman and a fireplace

Fresh. Need I say more about this cozy living room? I can’t help myself though…I must say a bit more because, as you know, I have a bit of OSS (Over Sharing Syndrome – a term coined by me and my college friends).

Neutral Living Room Color Palette

I love the neutral color palette or white, the black trimmed windows and doors, the natural jute or seagrass rug, and most of all I love the striped accessories – pillows, throws, and all.  There I said more.

The Black Trim Windows

Black windows are necessary when you want to create a dramatic contrast. There are many different materials that can give you the black trim design including wood, steel, and aluminum.

The living room design features a white loveseat with different colored striped throw pillows. The room features a lot of mixed materials and decor pieces to add texture. The rattan tray adds a coastal style to the room. The black wooden stool is used as a side table.

What do you think of this cozy fresh living room?  Like or dislike?  Is it too white for you or are the stripes just enough to break up the blank canvas?

I like…what about you?

Happy Thursday!

    Thanks for this. I was just debating my slipcover choices for a chair we are having done. I was leaning towards white but…liked a pattern or gray twill also so…White it is! I can always color/texture it up with pillows right?

    Too much white for me but I like the rest. Love the rug, tray and the black side table.

    I think it looks like a bad pottery barn shoot. Wasn’t that look in the 90’s.

Did you know one Sunday a month, the Champs-ÉlyséeDid you know one Sunday a month, the Champs-Élysées closes to traffic entirely?
No cars. Just people, walking straight down the center with the Arc de Triomphe ahead. Then I walked home over The Seine. It had just rained, and the sky was doing something extraordinary. And of course, the Eiffel Tower showed up right on cue.
Paris on a quiet Sunday is something else. 🖤

This St Germain apartment, designed by Félix Millo This St Germain apartment, designed by Félix Millory @felixmillory , is defined by two things: a tightly controlled material palette and a sculptural art collection that runs through every room without exception.
Travertine frames every doorway. Dark smoked oak covers the joinery and cabinetry. Grey marble runs across the kitchen counters and island. Within that framework, figurative sculptures on the shelves, a large totemic piece at the entrance, stone forms on the dining table, a large-format artwork in the kitchen. Every room has at least one object that demands your attention. 🗿
→ Save this if you’re designing around a sculpture collection.
