Whimsical Bedroom Reveal

This whimsical bedroom reveal delivers pops of fun, but in a sophisticated and mature way. Discover how the transformation of a DC primary bedroom uses iconic patterns to create a cocooning environment.  Notice how the soothing paint and timeless furniture balance out the boldness of the orange.

A Playful and Sophisticated Transformation Awaits

We continue to reveal this bold and adventurous project, room by room. To capture the true spirit of the home, it is important to see the “before” and “after” of the other spaces as well.

When a client’s favorite color is orange, Scalamandre’s Leaping Cheetah should definitely be a consideration.

The goal was to soften the graphic elements of the space and to keep the room warm and inviting.  Farrow and Ball paint never disappoints.  The pink is feminine enough to balance the orange and black, but also sophisticated enough that it still feels anchored.

Another tip to warming up the space is warm burl night stands.  They add subtle texture and a sense of history to the space.

Custom Schumacher romans complete the look.

It is hard to beat a balcony with water views.  I am grateful to have been a part of this fun project.
