Brief: Owners purchased their home off-the-plan and wanted to incorporate their exisitng and new furniture into a functional living room, whilst taking the colours and inspiration from their exhibtion art posters into soft furnishings & decor pieces. One of the requests was to 'keep the walls neutral like a canvas'.
The owners' Art posters from the exhibition 'From Russia with Love - costumes from the Ballet Russe' were framed, the frames were hand stained with Japanese Black and then rubbed back for a mottled effect, this would also tie the teak buffet and coffee table back to one another. A walnut teak lamp base and natural coloured lamp shade were added to a white side lamp table, which also compliments the Rectangular hyacinth lamp on the teak buffet.
The new teak buffet also served as a functional storage unit for housing the owners wine. Candle Towers in woven hyacinth, and candles, were sourced to compliment the furniture colours and to provide an alternate light source for dinner and entertaining when overhead down lights and lamps are not suitable.
Soft furnishings - cushions in navy stripes, floral paisley design with pale blue, burnt orange, vermillion and apple green, for the two lounges were chosen to tie back to the main poster art image. By using these colours through the room it ties the furniture, soft furnishings, decor and art work together creating a rhythmic flow through the space, whilst keeping the living room within the client brief as well light, bright, functional and stylish.
