Products Featured in This Design

• Products Featured in This Design
• Modern and traditional - two seemingly opposing ideas, but when combined, produces a design concept that has the potential to take your breath away.
• This contemporary-classic dining and living room has the best of both worlds. It has all the clean lines and the chic neutral color palette of a modern space along with a play of textures and ornate details of its classic counterpart.
• Since it is an open living and dining room, the decor elements and accessories have been incorporated in a way to ensure a seamless transition from one place into the other.
• The pops of color are brought in by some key pieces - like the Blue & White Chinoiserie Planter from Ballard Designs, the Katie Oriental Cream/Navy Area Rug from all Modern and the three-piece canvas acrylic painting from Wayfair.
• It is quite noticeable that the color play in the modern open space happens more through accessories and decor rather than through the key statement pieces - which makes the overall look and feel very interesting.
• The Blues and the soft greens are interspersed with whites and Ivory’s to maintain a balance.
• The Peasant Bowl from One Kings Lane, the flax linen curtains from West Elm, the Mara Cream Vase from Crate and Barrel, and all the different throw pillows from Wayfair & Pier1 are great examples of color play.
• The modern living and dining room also has some stand out pieces in it like the Chandelier from Wayfair, the Terrace Bar Cart from West Elm, and the Markle Antique Mirror from Pottery Barn.
• This open concept living and dining room is the perfect example of how smart design can make two different room extensions of each other.
