This article details the transformation of a 1950s split-level home's living room in Centerport, Long Island, owned by designers Adam and Kara Mendelsohn. After living in the home for eight years and furnishing it with a mix of existing pieces and hand-me-downs, the couple decided to update the space to better reflect their personalities and accommodate their two growing children. They enlisted interior designer Jeanne Campana to help create a family-friendly room that blended smart function with sophisticated style. Before the renovation, the living room was characterized by mustard yellow walls and a disjointed collection of furniture. Kara Mendelsohn described the house as lacking architectural details, feeling like a literal box, which made the space feel flat despite its desirable location and school district. The initial layout and decor did not provide the depth or character the family desired. Campana's design strategy focused on introducing architectural interest and creating a cohesive, family-friendly environment. A key change involved highlighting the fireplace by adding built-in shelves on either side. These shelves provided dedicated space for displaying framed family photos, books, and travel mementos, addressing the couple's desire to showcase personal items stylishly. Classic woodwork, including molding around doorways and decorative ceiling molding, was incorporated to add architectural depth and character, moving away from the previously flat aesthetic. The color palette and materials selection were carefully considered to achieve a neutral yet sophisticated look. Based on inspiration images gathered by Kara, Campana opted for earthy, organic gray walls complemented by white trim, which accentuated the new architectural details. This neutral backdrop was chosen for its versatility, allowing the family to easily change decorative accents seasonally. The furniture arrangement was also critical; two matching roll-arm sofas, upholstered in washable high-performance fabric, were placed directly across from each other with a glass-top coffee table in between. This layout maximized seating, ensuring comfort and accessibility for all family members. The Mendelsohns were keen on finding stylish yet affordable pieces. They sourced furniture from chain stores and online retailers, emphasizing comfort and practicality without excessive spending. A neutral sisal rug was added to ground the seating area and provide warmth, while end tables offered additional storage. A tall bookcase with an antique gold finish and a Hollywood Regency design added a touch of elegance near the entryway. Customization was also a feature, with the existing glass-top coffee table being converted into a shadow box to display Adam’s eyewear designs, seashells, and other personal mementos, serving as a unique conversation starter. Practical solutions were integrated throughout the design. The built-in bookcases included closed cabinets to conceal TV equipment, game consoles, and family photo albums. A large bay window was retained for natural light, with its frame repainted to match the new trim. Two ottomans, upholstered in ikat fabric, were placed under a console table below the window, offering flexible additional seating. Solid light blue cotton-linen throw pillows and custom throw pillows enhanced the comfort of the sofas. Lighting was addressed with a striking gold-finish iron orb chandelier for overhead illumination and a table lamp for task lighting at Kara’s desk area. Kara’s workspace, previously at the kitchen table, was improved with a dedicated desk, a comfortable zebra-print padded chair, and a gold-framed pinboard. Overall, the renovation successfully transformed a previously disjointed and architecturally bland living room into a sophisticated, functional, and personalized space that better suited the Mendelsohn family’s lifestyle and aesthetic preferences. #LivingRoomDesign #HomeRenovation #InteriorDesign #FamilyFriendly #ArchitecturalDetails #NeutralPalette #SuburbanHome #CustomFurniture #StorageSolutions

The blog post details the formal living room reveal in the author's new home, a bright and spacious room located off her office and visible upon entry. The author aimed to create a formal living room that was impactful, peaceful, and feminine, also intending to use it for work meetings. The design concept centered around an ultra-feminine aesthetic with pink as a primary color, combined with an elevated tropical vibe reminiscent of vintage Hollywood Regency style. The envisioned space was for relaxing with friends or reading a magazine. A key element in achieving the elevated design was sourcing materials from Kravet, a company known for its quality and selection in design since 1918. The author had a positive prior experience with Kravet for wallpaper in her previous home's mudroom and stair tower. For this formal living room, she selected a Kravet sisal wallpaper featuring palm leaves, which perfectly integrated the elegant and beachy aspects of the Hollywood Regency theme. This choice was aimed at creating a significant visual impression and a sophisticated atmosphere. Complementing the wallpaper, the author chose Lee Jofa “New Bradbourne” fabric in blush for the drapes, reinforcing the feminine vision for the room. The drapes were further enhanced with Kravet’s “Daintree” fringe in Ivory/Natural, adding a retro touch to the overall decor. The selection process involved narrowing down numerous options from Kravet's extensive range of wallcoverings, fabrics, and trims. All the furniture in the formal living room was carefully chosen to align with the desired aesthetic and contribute to the room's overall ambiance. The author expresses extreme satisfaction with the final outcome, noting that the room effectively sets the tone for the entire house without being overwhelming. She describes it as her ideal tranquil space, where she enjoys relaxing with a glass of wine and a coffee table book. The blog post provides a detailed list of design credits for various elements within the room, including the wallpaper, curtain fabric and trim, their respective installers, and specific furniture pieces such as the couch, chairs, coffee table, bar cart, side table, and cabinets. Decorative items like the rug, pillows, blankets, artworks, faux fiddle trees, planters, and various candles and vases are also listed, along with styling books.

This article explores a captivating interior design project undertaken by Melissa Oholendt, founder and design principal at Oho Interiors. The project involved transforming the living room of an early 1980s Arts & Crafts style home on Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota, for a couple in their late 60s and 70s. The homeowners, who had resided in the house for nearly two decades, sought a refreshed living space that would be both comfortable for reading and relaxing, and adaptable for frequent entertaining. Oholendt's design philosophy for this project was heavily influenced by the warm, lived-in aesthetic found in Nora Ephron's romantic comedies, such as 'You've Got Mail' and 'Sleepless in Seattle.' The goal was to create an 'impossibly liveable and cozy' environment that felt curated over time, rather than overly decorated. This involved a strategic blend of personality and pattern, carefully integrating new furnishings while respecting and highlighting the original Arts & Crafts architectural features, particularly the neutral, warm oak-based elements. The design team aimed to balance and soften the inherent architectural character with thoughtful color and pattern play. A key aspect of the renovation involved modernizing the fireplace, which was original to the house. The existing cerulean tile and smaller firebox were updated with a more contemporary firebox and a Bluette Marble surround. This new marble selection was chosen to evoke the colors and movement of Lake Minnetonka, which the home overlooks. For the open-plan living and dining areas, Oholendt and her team focused on maintaining the lake view. They achieved this by selecting low-profile furnishings near the windows and implementing a modular layout that offered flexibility. This allowed the space to seamlessly transition between intimate evenings for two and lively dinner parties, catering to the clients' love for hosting. The dining room was also designed with similar flexibility, providing space for formal gatherings, a cozy spot for holiday singalongs around the piano, or quiet morning piano practice. A standout element of the design is a highly personalized gallery wall. This feature, described as a 'labor of love,' incorporates sketches from the clients' art collection, family photos, mementos, and newspaper clippings. These personal items were professionally scanned, duplicated, and framed in readily available gallery frames, with some matting variations for visual interest. Notably, two needlepoint textiles from the couple's wedding footstools were also integrated, adding deep sentimental value. Intaglios from Statuette were included to connect with the William Morris fabric used in the dining room, contributing to the nuanced and collected feel. This gallery wall was crucial in adding family history, life, and personality to a potentially overlooked corner, creating a sense of a space that has evolved with the homeowners. Beyond the clients' existing art collection, Oho Interiors collaborated with Mason Lane to source additional pieces. A textural sculptural art piece in the entryway, for instance, proved to be a delightful and fitting addition. The project's success was evident in the clients' joyful reaction to their transformed home, with Melissa Oholendt noting their deep appreciation for how their history and lives were intricately woven into the design. The positive outcome led to the commencement of a second phase of work with the clients in late 2024. #ArtsAndCrafts #InteriorDesign #NoraEphronAesthetic #CozyHome #LivingRoomDesign #HomeRenovation #GalleryWall #LakeMinnetonka #OpenPlanLiving

The living room, often considered the heart of a home, serves multiple functions, from answering emails and enjoying morning coffee to exercising or relaxing with a book.

Patralekha and Rajkummar Rao's home reflects their experimental style through the incorporation of diverse textures and colors, including leather sofas and wicker furniture with floral upholstery. Their brown leather Chesterfield sofa, with deep button tufting and rolled arms, evokes an old Hollywood feel and plush comfort, reminiscent of a sophisticated library. Aparshakti Khurrana's space is personalized with distinct flooring combinations of plains, patterns, and prints, creating a vibrant summer narrative.

Actor Josh Brolin's living room features an exquisite example of bespoke joinery designed by Pierce & Ward. The aim was to maximize storage while making it a prominent feature of the room.

For bespoke joinery, it is recommended to incorporate a variety of shelf heights to accommodate different-sized items, unlike the uniform shelving typically found in libraries. Furthermore, dedicated spaces for art or sculptures should be planned from the outset to ensure they fit comfortably. Deep shelves can also be utilized to display curios and souvenirs from travels, adding personal touches to the living area.

The article outlines a simple yet effective decorative trick to enhance the luxurious appearance of a living room, drawing insights from experiences with various talented designers, stylists, and tastemakers. The author, who is the editor-in-chief of Country Living, shares lessons learned from hundreds of interviews and numerous photo shoots. These lessons include the benefits of slow decorating, the lasting appeal of an unfitted kitchen, and reliable sources for purchasing antiques online. The author also notes a personal appreciation for antiques, as highlighted in previous content. A central theme revolves around practical styling tips that do not require hiring a professional designer or owning an expensive home. One significant suggestion involves using a large tree branch, such as magnolia, placed in a demijohn for a high-impact floral arrangement, which is noted to save money on traditional flower purchases. Another general styling principle mentioned is that odd numbers of objects tend to create a more visually appealing grouping. The primary decorative secret emphasized in the article is to use pillow inserts that are larger than the pillow covers. Specifically, for a 22-inch pillow cover, a 24-inch insert is recommended. This method is said to make pillows appear fuller and of higher quality. The article suggests down or down-alternative inserts for optimal results. High-quality inserts are available from retailers like Restoration Hardware, and a specialized Etsy shop based in Istanbul, Turkey, is also highlighted for offering a wide variety of insert configurations. This technique is presented as a way to elevate the look of even inexpensive pillow covers. For those who prefer not to buy new pillows, an alternative solution is provided by Texas stylist Becki Griffin. She advises stuffing the floppy corners of existing throw pillows with Poly-fil. This inexpensive hack is claimed to significantly improve the appearance of pillows, making them look more substantial and costly. The article concludes by noting that a plusher pillow can also be more enjoyable for activities like 'karate-chopping,' adding a touch of lightheartedness to the advice. Overall, the article focuses on accessible and practical decorating tips that can help homeowners achieve a more polished and luxurious aesthetic in their living spaces without significant financial investment. The insights are derived from professional experience and observations within the interior design industry. #InteriorDesign #HomeDecor #LivingRoom #PillowStyling #DIYDecor #DesignTips #HomeImprovement

The concept of a 'glam room,' a dedicated space for beauty routines and self-care, has evolved significantly from historical precedents to modern-day influencer culture. While the Kardashian-Jenner family is often credited with popularizing the term and the trend, its roots can be traced back centuries to figures like Marie Antoinette, who had a specialized 'pièce des bains' at Versailles, featuring luxurious amenities for her personal beautification. Old Hollywood actresses such as Marlene Dietrich and Joan Crawford also maintained lavish dressing rooms, setting a precedent for personalized beauty spaces. In contemporary times, particularly with the rise of remote work and digital platforms like Zoom, the glam room has transitioned from a luxury bonus for celebrities like Taraji P. Henson and Laura Harrier into a more mainstream and desirable home feature. Interior designers like Kathryn Rotondi, based in Los Angeles, note a significant increase in requests for in-home glam rooms, designing bespoke spaces that range from entirely pink onyx rooms with customized seating to smaller vanity stations integrated into master closets for clients with limited space. This growing demand highlights a broader cultural shift where being camera-ready is increasingly considered a professional and personal necessity. For individuals looking to create their own glam room, several key considerations and DIY tips can help. The first step involves designating a suitable space. A master bathroom is an ideal location due to its existing wellness-oriented design, easily transformable with a few adjustments. Rotondi suggests incorporating a 'glam wall' with floating lucite shelves to display beauty products, arranged at varying heights for visual interest and to add a pop of color or gloss. Walk-in closets also present a viable option, where a wall-mount mirror, a vanity table with a tuck-away stool, and appropriate lighting can create a functional beauty area. For those with minimal space, a rollaway glam cart offers a flexible solution, allowing the setup to be moved and stored discreetly. Effective lighting is paramount for any successful hair and makeup space. Interior designer Brigette Romanek emphasizes the importance of warm, accentuating light that makes one feel beautiful, advising against overhead lighting that can create unflattering shadows. Instead, vanity bars above mirrors or 'halo' mirrors are recommended. Romanek also highlights elegant wall lamps, such as the Tennessee W1 and Gélule wall lamps, for their complementary illumination and aesthetic appeal. Beyond functionality, the glam room should be a personal sanctuary, decorated to reflect individual taste and promote positive energy. Romanek suggests using fabrics, materials, and colors that enhance skin tone and evoke a sense of well-being. Wall coverings, whether minimalist ultrasuede or elaborate chinoiserie, can introduce personality and warmth. Art also plays a crucial role in setting the desired mood, with designers often sourcing pieces from galleries like Art Angels. Strategic furnishing completes the glam room. While custom-built vanities are an option, various freestanding tables can serve as excellent alternatives, accommodating different budgets. High-end choices like the Yves Vanity by Baxter contrast with more affordable options such as Homary's vanity dressing table with swivel cabinets or an IKEA dressing table, which can be personalized with new knobs. Pairing a higher table with a salon or barber chair from brands like Minerva or Wayfair enhances the professional feel. If space allows, adding a small daybed or couch, like Gubi’s Stay Sofa, creates a comfortable spot for relaxation and contemplation of future looks. #GlamRoom #HomeDesign #InteriorDesign #BeautySpace #DIYHomeDecor #VanitySetup #LightingTips #LuxuryLiving #CelebrityStyle #HomeRenovation

The article highlights the exceptional conversational seating arrangement found in George and Amal Clooney's former New York City townhouse, as designed by the firm White Arrow. This layout is presented as a prime example of balancing inviting comfort with sophisticated design, a key focus as interior design trends shift towards experiential living spaces. The author, Sophie Edwards, emphasizes that 'conversational seating' is about more than just functionality; it involves creating an atmosphere that encourages social interaction while maintaining aesthetic appeal and proper use of space. The specific design in the Clooney's former home features a curved velvet sofa positioned opposite a cozy boucle armchair, creating a natural and effortless flow for conversation. A glass coffee table is strategically placed to complement the arrangement without obstructing the visual or physical flow of the space. The article elaborates on how the chosen materials and shapes contribute to the overall success of the layout. The soft textures of velvet and boucle in the seating contrast with the more industrial elements of the room, such as the steel beams of a garage door wall and chic white walls. Similarly, the organic curves of the furniture pieces juxtapose the straight lines of the ceiling beams and the overall angular architecture of the room, including the round coffee table. This interplay of textures and forms elevates the design, making it feel refined and intentional rather than merely casual. The author expresses a belief that this approach to interior design, which prioritizes the inhabitants' experience over strict aesthetic rules or spatial ratios, is becoming a prominent trend in 2025. Moving away from purely visual aesthetics, modern design is increasingly focusing on how a space makes people feel and how it facilitates social connections. By angling seating to promote interaction, designers can create environments that are both warm and welcoming. This shift underscores a broader movement in design towards functionality that enhances human connection and well-being. The article also provides shoppable links to similar furniture pieces, including a curved velvet sofa, a boucle lounge chair, and a glass coffee table, allowing readers to replicate elements of the Clooney's former living room design in their own homes. This practical aspect helps readers translate the design principles discussed into actionable steps, further emphasizing the article's educational and inspirational value. The overall message is that good design, particularly in seating arrangements, is intrinsically linked to fostering human interaction and creating a sense of warmth and invitation within a living space. #CelebrityHomes #InteriorDesign #ConversationalSeating #LuxuryInteriors #DesignTrends #LivingRoomIdeas #HomeDecor #FurnitureArrangement
