I love this room that was designed by Bobby McAlpine that is featured in his new book, The Home Within Us. This is a great example of why "details makes the difference". Notice the unique and beautiful details that has been added to make this room special. Copy some of these details in your own home to achieve an extraordinary room!
My Top Ten Details:
1-Trim is painted a subtle pale color that is not white. White trim here would ruin the over all feel.
2-Matching art work that is colorful and matches the paint scheme. The art is hung at eye level.
3-Tailored and sophisticated draperies in a subtle color.
4-Natural cypress stained ceiling.
5-Matching lamps for a uniform look.
6-Bamboo stool becomes a focal point because of the interesting leg style that is seen as you enter the room.
7-Wall paneling that is a wonderful green that enhances the other subtle colors including the neutral walls.
8-Natural fiber rug that adds texture to the room.
9-A chair (left) that brings more of the refreshing green color into the room.
10-Reproduction round table on the left and food cart on the right; these mirror each other with style and color.
