IN THIS PROJECT , WHAT ARE YOUR CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT :
Finish selections based on different types , textures and colors : The shell of the space was kept with light finishes acting as a background for art . The furnishings counter balance this with richer color tones and the play of textures . All finishes , colors and fabrics were selected in order to create a warm ambience that at the same time would enhance the art collection
Which modifications were needed to achieve your design ? Not much was necessary – the major change was to make all the doors taller so they would fit better within the high ceilings .
Any specific challenge in this Project ? The living room is relatively deep , with all the windows on only one side so we had to be very mindful when selecting the window treatments in order to maximize the amount of natural light without compromising the general ambience .
