This design concept for the Oriental Living Room and Foyer presented itself with a design problem of a small foyer which needed to appear larger and a large spacious living area that needed to be filled!!!
We had to use the concepts of space expanders and diminishers.
The clients, Megan and Curt, had recently purchased their new home and required a very formal Oriental theme. Meg wanted the foyer to have a little table or commode with mirror. The living room required a grand piano, seating for 8 to 10, shelving to display collectibles, and a reading area with two chairs.
I chose a red and black theme with beautiful artwork, and a bit of repetition with a circular shape. The items in the foyer were to have horizontal lines so the space would appear wider, and the living room to have primarily vertical lines in the artwork, shelving unit, and some other furnishings. Dark furniture was also chosen with a busy design for the sofa fabric.
