Karen's Current and New Home...

Update, August 5, 2010:

Hi Karen,

It was great working with you again! Working with your existing furniture and accessories, we were able to provide a bit more fluidity throughout your space.

Some pointers to consider on the front exterior:

Clear out the shrubbery in front lawn...especially around the mail box.

Add your two pots by the front door to the right, with a layering effect...add red flowers and green grass:

Place the pots in a staggered position where the one closest to the door is set up higher than the other pot (See how the pots are positioned in the picture below...this is how they need to be positioned, however with one layered above another.

Clear out shrubbery...

Back patio, this is the after, I did not take before pictures...

The space now flows as one space flowing together.

It is also a great extension from indoors to the outdoors.

Hi Karen,

It was wonderful meeting you this afternoon. I am very glad that you were able to utilize your gift certificate for my services.

Pictured below is your console table and decorative vase...please keep both pieces and move to new home.

I know you are needing to utilize most of your furniture...so don't worry...we will work with what you have and wait until you are ready to purchase new furniture...

The new house and large living space (two photos)...

The 'rough sketch' of how I will place furniture and artwork...
The left bottom side of page is the front entry:

From your current home..please bring the end tables

and lamps...could use end tables for a different function...

You are a minimalist, so let's utilize these pieces in a different

way with a different purpose. We may use the existing lamps for

a completely different area.

Your current home's fireplace and chairs...

the chairs will need to be replaced with chairs that

have more sleek lines...in the meantime we

will work with what you already have...

In addition to all the furniture you are keeping,

please keep the small table which is on the left
side of the photo...

I know you want to keep this wicker love seat,

it would be a great piece to place on your deck...

but not in your bedroom...especially if you are
utilizing the Edo Platform Bed (pictured below)...

This is what I have analyzed thus far...if you have any questions, please contact

me via phone or email. You are greatly appreciated!
