I had previously decorated the downstairs home theater, bedroom and children’s rooms in this charming house on the shores of Lake Bodom. Now customers wanted renew the living, dining and kitchen areas. The outdated floor tiles were replaced with a stunning wide solid oak parquet with a hand-carved, slightly uneven surface and a shade that blends beautifully with the window frames. A beautiful, serene paint tone was chosen for the walls and the ceiling panels were painted white. The ceiling beams were highlighted by painting them black. New track lighting was installed to the beams to provide atmospheric lighting for the high space. All fixed and loose furniture, lighting fixtures and textiles were renewed. The turquoise-colored hem of Harlequin’s beautiful linen curtains blends in with the surface of the lake visible from the windows. The white chairs in the dining area are upholstered with textile leather, making them easy to clean. It is important when three children and dogs are running around.
