Atypical Design

The client wanted to transform his basement into a comfy family lounge and friend entertainment area for TV, playing pool, listening to music etc..

An intimate home based in North Boston where the winters are tough and long.

• Repainted in warm fire red with working phone booth.

• Large comfy couches with custom removable slipcovers.

• Sourced entertainment center for TV and music.

• Lots of storage for games and blanket throws.

• Rugged strong coffee table

• Custom fit art board and pool table.

I am known for my ability to listen, understand, and visualize.

The client, a very strong personality with a keen understanding of the dream refuge to create his art.

His firm conviction in utilizing pieces of antiques from his family, the blackened credenza, an antique piano with ivory keys, and an authentic nurse’s medical chest from the Second World War, were used to bring the space together.

 I was sensitive to his extreme allergies  - so no rugs or large fluffy type soft furnishings.

• Repaint of walls and trim in lounge.

• Dark grey velvet curtains with black hardware.

• Sourced grey velvet couch and maroon leather arm chair to bring out the warmth in the wood’s color.
