Lake House Living Room Makeover

Hi Friends!

How are you? I hope you’re all enjoyed the last few weeks of fall in upstate!

Remember the lake house I’ve been working on designing for the last 2 years? Well, today is the day that I get to share the living room makeover. 

Here it is before:

Before I show you the after photos, I wanted to talk about a couple of my favorite things from the design. First, look up! Painting the ceilings white and adding beams made the biggest transformation in this space. Also, I don’t have a before picture but the stair area was completely sheet rocked before. So we talked through opening it up and making the stairs a focal point while also allowing company to see from the front door right out to the lake when they walk in! It made the whole first floor feel modern and open.

Next look down, anchoring the room with a large rug also brought the space together. The coffee table was my favorite furniture piece in this room (with the striped chair being a very close second). I just loved the turned legs. So check that out as you scroll down, too!

Let me know your favorite part of the design in the comments below! I love hearing from you!

I’m still hoping that my clients will add a beam to the fireplace, but other than that this room is all done! Now they can spend time with their family and friends while enjoying the view from inside their home during the colder months. 💕
