This is a comfortable room that is not only beautiful but very usable. The days of off-limit living rooms, where they are just looked at or used twice a year is over. The walls are covered in a deep bronze / gold, subtle metallic wallcover from Cole & Sons, revealing a depth that will warm the room while creating a dressier atmosphere.

The sofa is covered in a cream cotton / linen weave with an exposed leg and rail in a deep mahogany to express a more relaxed feeling. The two lounge chairs are covered in extremely luxurious, durable mohair. The custom fireplace surround is a simple rich mahogany mantel with a small rustic cream tile; the tile color contrasts with the wood mantel showing off the beauty of each material. The area rug is of modern design which updates the room and adds a pattern to the space. Flowing silk draperies are airy and add a touch of formal style. Contemporary oil painting with an antique gild frame is an interesting twist to the room along with contemporized lighting to make for a more modern space.
