These clients contacted me to determine the best floor plan for their family room and to furnish and accessorize.\u00a0\u00a0 In Canada, we typically have what we call a family room which is a more informal space than the living room and is usually where TV viewing takes place.\u00a0 As you can see from the Before photo, their hand-me-down furniture wasn\u2019t quite living up to what else was happening in the room.<\/p>\n

\"J&Abefore1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After drawing various floor plan options, we decided to keep the sofas floating in the middle of the room.\u00a0 This is necessary because conversation would be difficult if the sofas were placed further apart, as the room is 18\u2019 across.\u00a0 Floor plans drawn to scale allow clients to see the various options and it becomes apparent which one is the most functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n

\"J&Afamilyroom\"

Unfortunately I only have this one After photo to share (long story!)\u00a0\u00a0 Again, I have used Lee<\/a> for the sofas and leather ottoman.\u00a0 I can\u2019t say enough about this company.\u00a0 Their quality, styles and commitment to the environment are exceptional.\u00a0\u00a0 The fabric on the sofas is a child-friendly chenille.\u00a0 It won\u2019t show every little Cheezie fingerprint!\u00a0 Lee also did the gorgeous cushions \u2013 I especially love the crewel ones.<\/p>\n

The accessories and cushions are from my favourite retailers:\u00a0\u00a0 Pottery Barn (floral cushions), Crate and Barrel (tray), West Elm (throw) and Homesense (vase, bowls, pottery on shelves.)\u00a0 I realize the shelves look a little bare as the clients didn’t want my help to style them so I just brought a few items in.<\/p>\n

The homeowners love putting their feet up and spending family time together in this comfortable room.<\/p>\n
