COMBINATION SYMMETRICAL &
ASYMMETRICAL DESIGN
This living room incorporates both symmetrical and
asymmetrical features. The custom bookcases provide a
sense of stability, while an informal balance is established
using similar fabric on the sofa and two chairs, which
offset each other.

T
he bookcases in this living room were
custom-made from walnut frames with
contrasted natural Tamo ash panels.
he floating shelves were designed to create
an interesting but clean entertainment unit
highlighting collected pieces of art. There is a steel
plate on each shelf that can slide on a hidden track,
allowing for a backdrop for the art pieces that can
be rearranged if any items are replaced. The art
ranges from a piece made of metal from space, a
collection of Pewabic Pottery, to found objects.”
