did you ever see such a beautiful before? our clever client in dallas has fine taste and serious style. he collects meaningful things. his home is his favorite place in the whole wide world. helping him love it even more is our favorite thing in the whole wide world. so best before ever...

and after...
the redesign company living room
why it works...
  • natural jute and cotton rug grounds the grouping and warms up the room
  • tone on tone linen drapes cozy up the room while still being crisp and clean
  • throwing off the symmetry a little feels more inviting
  • moving a chair closer to the fireplace connects it with the room and feels balanced
  • less matchy matchy lamps are more interesting and now you can read a book on the sofa
  • the bigger gallery wall around the tv makes it blend better

people often ask us what to put on bookshelves. 
in the kindley world we live in, notsomany people collect real books anymore.
collections of pottery or old baskets or interesting objects look beautiful if you have and love them.
but knick knacks for the sake of knick knacks are knick knacky.
we prefer the look and feel and texture and warmth and homeyness of real books.
real backwards books...
'cause when you get 'em at goodwill, most of them are gonna be south beach diet or whatever...
