I am sharing the family room of a Florida e-design, which is the third and final space in this project. You can read about the other two spaces that I worked on in these posts:
ROOM PHOTOS
Note: The homeowner replaced the old tile with hardwood floors at the onset of the project, so the before photos may reflect the change.
FLOOR PLAN
The client had previously purchased a large modular sectional (shown in before photos) that was staying in the room. Since the sectional was modular, I was able to reconfigure it to work with the floor plan.

DESIGN PLAN
Like the dining room, the living room is right off the entry and is immediately visible when you enter the house. It is a lived-in space that is used every single day by the entire family; therefore, it needs to withstand daily "wear and tear" from adults, kids, and pets alike.
To help offset the "heaviness" of the dark gray sectional, I introduced colorful art and coordinating accent pillows in "brighter" colors. One of the colors that the homeowner was drawn to was teal, so I started by sourcing a statement art piece that incorporated teal and other complimentary colors. Design Tip: An inspiration piece, like art or a patterned rug, is a good starting point when working on a design scheme.
Incorporating contrast accent pieces - such as the lucite side table, ivory accent chair, and black/cream rug - will also help to visually lighten up the space. Lighting and storage/display needs were also addressed.
LONG-TERM PLAN
A custom built-in unit is planned for the wall where the television is placed. A console that spans a major length of the television wall was sourced as an interim storage solution. A staircase remodel is also something that is under consideration. As a courtesy, I provided the homeowner with a simplified, more modern staircase concept that could work with the existing design elements.
