Living Room Makeover From Better To Best
Before
Now this was a hard call but in hind sight, definitely an improvement! There used to be these quaint arches(held up by tacky pillars) that divided a sitting area from the main living area. We busted them out but of course had to rip out most of the ceiling to install an 18′ support beam to support the weight of the roof. A big shout out to my framer and especially my trim guy who held my hand thru this highly stressful process.
After
Got rid of drab decor and replaced with fun art, and lighter furniture and accessories.

Here we have a lesson in scale…
Before (This dining room is much too large and empty feeling)
See the tacky tile and pillars? We eliminated the useless and dangerous step up, ugly pillars and dated chandelier and replaced with all one level wood floors, two large square colomns and paneling that were much more to scale of the large room and of course a large crystal chandelier which much better fills the space.
