Color Commitment-Living Room Edition

Most clients seem to be fully committed to color or scared to death of commitment. Then there are those that are comfortable with softer shades of color and those that prefer full saturation. Which one are you?

Case Study #1
This deep green sofa comes across as a neutral. Not really that scary of a commitment unless green is not your color.

Case Study #2
Fully saturated turquoise blue. This bold and vibrant color is balanced by neutral rug, chairs and walls.

Case Study #3
Soft blue sofa and chairs in a monochromatic scheme...it's so soothing and cool...not hard to live in!

Case Study #4
Mossy green sofas with neutral walls. Not too much of a stretch for the color commitment-phobic.

Case Study #5
Orange sofa with orange wallpaper is definitely a commitment! I just love the way this looks. Again balanced with the neutral casework, chair, and rug.

Fully saturated tomato red with yellow, green, and orange! I think this space is so fun and full of life. Full blown color commitment!

Slab Happy


Marble, granite, quarzite, limestone, soapstone, travertine...are all available in slabs. The slab plus fabrication are usually the most expensive element in the tile and stone sector. That being said, slabs are so functional and beautiful they are a worthy investment. They can make a shower, tub surround, fireplace, or kitchen instantly look amazing! Feast your eyes on a few prime examples...
