Award Winning Comfort & Design

Building a color scheme for furnishing this room began when the clients fell in love with the red sofa and chair combination. Designer Tamara Scott-Anderson helped her clients and friends, Jan & Judith select an area rug that worked to soften the beautiful ocher  colored concrete floors and the room developed from there.  The other new  furnishings included decorative metal and glass occasional tables, a carved wooden book shelf, a sculptural chair made of recycled wood, and a hand  chiseled mantle over the fire place. These furnishings added a visual textural element to the room. Then accent walls were painted gold and red to pull the color scheme though out the adjoining kitchen and dining area. The addition of solar tubes to the living area allows for more day light and a brightened environment.

Here Jan relaxes in one of the retro sling chairs that were reupholstered to be included in the seating plan.

This project won a first place  award in the 2005 ASID Design Excellence awards.
 Here six years later Judith continues to enjoy the comfort of the red chenille sofa that started it all.
