Answer:
Thank you so much for your design questions. Your living room is such a wonderful, exciting space that we decided to give you some ideas on how to complete the look. We wanted to address your concerns of storage and toddler safety as well as giving your room an elegant and finished sense of style.
Additional storage is always welcomed in any room of the house. We have chosen some simple hide-away solutions for your living room. The Nailhead Storage Ottoman covered in Fleur de Lis Wheat (for durability) is doing double duty. It will provide you with ample space for your toddler’s toys and books, as well as magazines and that soft throw waiting for a Saturday afternoon nap. The rounded upholstered corners provide a safety solution as well. In addition, you have hidden storage areas below our Terrific Table Trios that are covered in burlap fringed cloths. The Ethan Tray Table is one of those little treasures with a removable top tray and castered feet so you can roll it out for a party and push it back into place. Our 2-Drawer DeHavilland Console will also provided much-needed enclosed storage space with European elegance and flair. The DeHavilland has rounded corners providing additional toddler safety.
We have tried to capture the look and feel of a sophisticated yet relaxed living space. A room that takes into consideration – “real people” live here. The addition of art work and accessories help to make the room warm and inviting. On either side of the room, we added toffee Checked Panels framing the elegant leaded glass windows. We have raised them above the window frames to enhance the height of the room. Above the fireplace we added a Café Shelf as a mantel piece which added substance to the fireplace as well as a focal point for your favorite painting.
All in all, this living room has come alive with style and personality without forgetting the storage and safety concerns that you had. We truly hope that this ‘finished’ space will inspire you and our customers to be adventurous and think outside the box.
