SERINA, SRIN & THEIR BOYS
Serina and her family moved into their home 2 years ago but never felt like they made it their own. Being busy parents of 3 boys, they didn't have the time to do anything but move in. They were finally ready to make the house reflect their personality and work for the needs of their family. We started first on their dining room then soon after moved onto their basement and bedroom.
THE DINING
ROOM
BEFORE
The dining room had two light fixtures that hung at awkward spots in the room.
In order for the main light fixtured to be centered to the dining table, it forced the table to be pushed to the far wall, leaving the room feeling unbalanced.
The second fixture hung to the right of the room, floating above empty space. Not knowing what to do, she placed two accent chairs under the light fixture to fill the space.
THE DESIGN SOLUTION
The light fixture above the dining table was replaced with an elegant chandelier that could be extended into the room, allowing the table to be pulled further from the wall.
The second fixture was replaced with a with a simple flush mount to avoid competition with the main chandelier and confusing the eye to two areas.
Since the room is longer rather than deep, the buffet was moved to the right wall to create a better balance and more space around the dining table.
Art that picked up the wall color and mirrors were integrated to define the style of the room.

THE BASEMENT
BEFORE
The basement had become a dumping ground for all their kid's toys.
They recently finished renovating the basement bar area and wanted to start using the space.
Srin needed an area to escape to after working late nights to decompress.
THE DESIGN SOLUTION
We sourced an ultra-comfortable couch that would fit the whole family but also give Srin a place to nap after a long night shift.
To add color into the room we brought in a beautiful area rug and artwork that would define the room.
Realistic faux plants were brought in to bring more life into the basement.

THE
BEDROOM
BEFORE
Srin & Serina desperately wanted an escape in the home where they could relax together. Currently, their bedroom had a mix of old furniture and baby things that was more stressful than relaxing.
The light fixture was a particular pain since it was in the middle of the room and hung so low that Srin would often hit his head on it at night.
THE DESIGN SOLUTION
First up was upgrading their queen size bed to a luxurious king bed they could relax in.
The seating area around the fireplace is a perfect place for enjoying a nightcap together while the kids are in bed.
We designed the room to feel like a luxury hotel room that they would escape to on a vacation. Now they can have that feeling every night together in the comfort of their home.
