New Traditional Living Room

I had a fun design consult yesterday with a woman who just moved in to a new home and needed some help figuring out her great room.  Huge windows with golf course views, gorgeous open kitchen with marble countertops and blue glass backsplash, and no clue what to do with the floorplan!

We decided to bring her brown sectional up from the basement (where a bigger seating solution is needed).  A long console will sit behind one side of it to divide the living room from the dining area.  Lamps on the console will further create a "wall."  A pair of slipper chairs will create a U-shape seating area with the sectional, and their short height will not impede the view.

Picking up on colors throughout her house (some of my faves, which makes it easy!)  here's what I gave her.




Love it all!  Every time I work on a sort of "new traditional" space, I wonder what I am doing in a modern house.  But the grass is always greener, right?

That second one makes me think of this gorgeous house that Nicole featured the other day.

But back to me.  Do you have a favorite?
