Please take this suggestion w love. The entry wall pictures seem out of place. Maybe Paint the wall black and change the switches and covers to Matt black. Place a 19x50 wood frame mirror between the switch to coordinate w fireplace across the room. Blessings on your home and journey. 🙏🏾

Thank you for sharing your home and the decorating process. I actually love your original idea of cabinetry at the bottom and shelves placed above. I think it’s an opportunity to add mirrors and some art to the space. I know it’s intimidating taking on such a large home to decorate, but conquer one room at a time. Can’t wait to see the next video! ❤️

Hey y’all! Love your home and the updates and pieces you’ll have already added, nice choices! As for the fireplace wall, black is a go, it’s timeless and I think will be around. I’ll do the entire wall black with picture frame moulding, extending this design all the way to the catwalk. I think defining the two spaces would be the least of my worry because I think the over design outweighs that issue. I would also consider open shelving with the cabinets beneath or taller built ins on both sides of the fireplace to help fill in the high walls, I would go above that with art work, only above the fireplace and to the left, going towards the catwalk, I’ll let the picture moulding do its job. Good luck guys! I’m sure y’all will figure it out and have it looking MARVELOUS!😘😘

Definitely need a longer couch that's black with 2 side chairs with a pattern...you need longer art made by fireplace..or put texture stone up the wall....
@MissieandAkeem Жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks for the suggestions however, I definitely disagree, no black couches for us. They collect entirely too much lint and shows plus it’s not what I desire for the space, and by all means NO patterns. I feel like that’s way too trendy for furniture imo plus it’s definitely not our style at all. The couch is 95” wide we don’t want to go any longer than that as it would encroach on the island and bar stools area. We pretty much have an idea of how we plan to go about our design, just working on executing it at this point. Great suggestions, but not the route we want to go.

Hey besties! I love the updates and the ideas. I love the outdoor tV and the idea of the enclosed patio to extend the living space. I was wondering about the protection for the tV from rain so that’s good. That powder room is an art piece itself it’s ashame you can’t just keep the door open but the guest will be wowed. As far as the long fireplace wall maybe some floating shelves spaced apart and staggered along the wall and then your art piece at the very top shelf or the middle shelf. I was thinking about 3 -4 shelves each side and you can put a cabinet on each side for storage

I absolutely love black and white and a lot of contrast. But, in my opinion, too many black rooms and huge contrasts is going to make them all make less impact. Find one area to pack the punch and then let the rest fall back and just be beautiful. Too many all black rooms and eventually the house will become very dark and less family friendly. I get it, we bought a new construction and just moved in 2 months ago and it's taking everything out of me not to run wild. Beautiful home though.
