Client E-Deign House Reveal

April 15, 2013 by Courtney 28 Comments

I am beyond thrilled to share with you a home that I have been working on for quite some time. My client, Sarah, lives in Texas and contacted me long before her home was even built. Working from builder plans and blueprints was a first for me and it was so exciting to feel like I was along for the ride when this sweet family finally moved in and decorated their home. Because this was a brand new build, there aren’t before photos to show you but I hope you’ll enjoy the after shots of their fantastic home. It was important the spaces be cohesive and blend well with one another while still maintaining their own style. I think you’ll agree that Sarah did an amazing job implementing all of the designs. First up is the dining room.   diningroom … chair …… lamp   … dining   …   MJ1P3056r_13APR13   I only wished I lived closer so I could pop in for dinner sometime soon! dininglong   Next up is the great room. Sarah’s kitchen is just beautiful and the light and bright feeling is carried out into the family room. We wanted to keep the sofas light and infuse a soft gray and yellow palette. The family room boasts extremely high ceilings so we highlighted the gorgeous windows with striped panels.   greatroom … … kitchengrayyellow   … couchpillows   Due to the tall ceilings in this room, we added picture frame molding to create a more dramatic feel as well as intentionally frame out the television so that it didn’t feel lost on such a vast wall. striped_drapes   The rugs in the dining room and family room echo one another but in different color ways. This keeps the look clean and cohesive. chairs boxes   The next space we worked on was the girls’ room. I have to say this may be one of my favorite children’s rooms to date. Sarah did a fantastic job pulling it all together and included every detail from the design boards.  We wanted it to be fun, bright, happy and comfortable. The older daughter has taken a liking to the peace sign so we tried to use that in a way that worked well with the rest of the room.   MJ1P3149r_13APR13   … bed650 …   pinkroom   The seating area is a fun place for mom to read to the girls or for these little ladies to daydream and get lost in the wonderful world of books. MJ1P3249r_13APR13   … onebed Photos by Jay Davis Photography {Out of respect to my clients, I am unable to list sources. Thank you for understanding} I hope you enjoyed taking a look around Sarah’s beautiful home. This project has been a complete joy to work on. When I see these photos of an E-Design come to life it is a feeling like no other. And kudos to Sarah for surviving a photos shoot with little ones! If you have ever had to do that, it can be quite exhausting! We just finished working on Sarah’s master bedroom design and I look forward to sharing that with you soon!

    Beautiful job! I love the soft colors on the main floor because they allow the accessories to pop – love the blue lamps in the dining room. And the girl's room is darling!

    What a gorgeous home! Her floors are amazing – and how smart to hire you to help them pull it all together! It's always such a daunting task starting from scratch – loving the tall end chairs in the dining room – just gorgeous!

    Ah! Just gorgeous. Genius idea with the picture molding above the mantle, I've always wondered how people decorate those large living room walls without it looking too bare. And the girls' room… love. Have so much fun in NOLA this weekend!! xox
