Project Recap: Grown Up House Living

We can have nice things!

I promise it’s possible to have a beautiful, durable living space even if there are little kids around!! Strategically picking your fabrics to hide smudgy finger prints and selecting scrubbable materials is a great places to start. Comfort is also important so you can curl up with your family and get a Star Wars marathon in on Friday nights. This space hits all those high notes and more!

Mixing materials give you a lot interest even if the piece has a simple profile. I love the warmth of the brass with the black and white marble shelves.

Comfort is key when you’re talking family rooms. Also cleanability! See that background color variation in the rug… Game changer!

Ample open storage can be a challenge if you don’t start with a plan! Mix your personal items with some great textural finds.

Mixing this gorgeous caramel colored pillow with the blue grey sofa feels so elegant but still casual.
