Fluffing
Preamble: Today is the FOURTH day this month that schools are closed here for dangerously cold temps. As in, the high today is projected to be -6. The low? -22. Those are raw temps before any of that wind chill nonsense.
So let's talk about cozying up a bedroom, shall we?
Lots of designers don't "fluff" a space, bringing in textiles and accessories, but I have to say, it can be pretty satisfying, and the gratification is instant.
I have a new client who has a solid set of Pottery Barn furniture and a pale grey wall color that she likes, but her space lacks personality. She contacted me to bring a little life to the room. She wanted the room to feel cozy, finished, and not too feminine, and she didn't want a lot of stuff. She was VERY open to color palette and look, so I put together 4 boards with fairly different vibes to see where she was at.
Calm and fresh:
warm and Cheerful:

It's amazing how different these spaces can feel based simply on textiles and accessories.
None of these are the direction we ended up going....hopefully we'll have a before and after soon--just waiting on the linen roman shades!
If you're local, stay warm.....
