LIVING WITH LAVENDER – THIS OR THAT

November 12, 2013

Contemporary living room with lavender accents

Saw these two living rooms the other day where lavender is the connecting theme.  The first is a living room with very subtle accents in a light shade of purple.  While the second, takes on lavender living with zest by incorporating a lilac colored sea grass wallpaper and then punches up the decor with even more purple with the ikat upholstery on the side chairs…oh and did I mention the orange sofa.

So today I ask you…which of these two living rooms do you prefer?  Could you see yourself living with lavender?

    Could live in the first space. Thinking the second room would be too much color for me.

    Love this color. It really seems almost like a neutral. Every color looks great with it.

    Love the first one with its great mix of furniture (the Platner table paired with the antique armchairs looks fabulous) but my vote would definitely go to room number 2 (designed by Amanda Nisbett maybe?). I need a bit more color in my life 🙂

    I like aspects of both, but I really love that poppy-colored sofa with the lavender pillows. I’d opt for a stark, white backdrop though- the lavender wallpaper is a bit overkill and too Easter-eggy for me.

    I haven’t been a fan of purple, in general, since my pre-teen days I the late ’80s. I do like the purple splotchy ikat chairs, but I can’t so much handle the pastel shades.

Untouched since 1972: an interior designer’s guilt Untouched since 1972: an interior designer’s guilt-free remodeling dream.
Designer Noz Nozawa and her husband found this Kings Beach cabin in North Lake Tahoe in 2017. Over the next six years they gut-renovated every room (though if you ask Noz, it’s never really finished), building their own take on nostalgic, cozy Old Tahoe charm.

Everyday luxury isn’t saved for special occasions. Everyday luxury isn’t saved for special occasions. It’s a porch swing at golden hour, sunlight across a marble floor, a dining room you’d actually want to linger in.
A look inside a home that’s elevated without ever feeling off-limits: brass-detailed kitchen, a glass-walled lounge, and a lacquered dining room with a wine wall.

Drapes or no drapes? 👀 One room, two very differe Drapes or no drapes? 👀
One room, two very different feelings.
Without the drapes, the space feels bright, open, and minimal. Add the drapes, and suddenly there’s more softness, warmth, and texture.
This was one of the details we loved playing with in the COCOCOZY Design House. Sometimes a simple window treatment can completely change the feeling of a room.
Which would you choose for this space: WITH DRAPES or WITHOUT? Tell us below. 🤍
