Keim Family and Dining room

I really enjoyed working with the Keim family on this project. As we started this project, we had two design goals for this space. The first was to give them an updated, elegant, and functional space where they can entertain their friends and family. The second was to create an area where they could homeschool their twins. I also wanted to showcase the architectural details in their home while softening the space with lots of different textures and warm colors that would highlight the stone fireplace and beautiful molding around the windows.
Makeover Included: New light fixtures, formica table top, recovered dining room chairs and window seat, lamps, window treatments, sofa and leather chairs, coffee table and side table, floor rug, wall art and accessories.

Window Seat: This might be my favorite element in this room. Before this space was lost and hardly noticeable, now it demands that you pay attention to it. We used the same fabric that we covered the dining room chairs in for the seat cushions and and then brought over the same pillows from the seating room so that the two spaces are really tied together.

Family Room Seating Area: New Rug, furniture, fireplace screen, and accessories.
