LIVING ROOM REFRESH
LIVING ROOM, BEFORE
This living room was original to the 1950s home and was ready for some updates!  To amp up the curb appeal of the house, I removed the asymmetrical bank of windows and replaced it with two separate ones.
LIVING ROOM, AFTER
The living room is still light and bright despite losing some windows thanks to the new floor to ceiling windows and the addition of ceiling lights.
LIVING ROOM, BEFORE
This cased opening made the living room feel small and disconnected from the rest of the house.
LIVING ROOM, AFTER
By removing the cased opening as well as a section of the stairway wall, I was able to make the room look and feel much larger without actually increasing its footprint.
LIVING ROOM, AFTER
Even if you don't have the space to expand a room, there is always a way to improve it!

The view from the other side of the cased opening.
LIVING ROOM, AFTER
With the cased opening gone, the room has a better flow with the rest of the house.
LIVING ROOM, AFTER
Performance velvet and animal print polish the space.
