When one of your closest friends builds a home and asks you to decorate her Great Room, you immediately say "Yes", and start planning. That is exactly what I did when I found myself in that scenario, earlier this year. Today, I am thrilled to be revealing the Family Room area of the Great Room!
The Great Room of an open concept floor plan, consists of the Family Room, Kitchen and Dining Area. My good friend knew that building a home would be a huge expense, and that decorating the whole house immediately would not be an option. She also knew she wanted to invest to make the largest area of her home, the one her family would be spending the most time in, a space that would be beautiful, comfortable and a reflection of her style. I had the privilege of consulting with her to pick out finishes and colors during the building process. That made it easy for me to hone in on her personal style. I created a design board to help her see my vision for the Great Room Area. Thankfully, she loved it all and we got busy purchasing furniture and accessories. The result is a pretty, polished and comfortable space she and her family can enjoy. Take a look...
I love combination of the navy and coral, with the small pops of green. :) Next week I'll be revealing the Kitchen and Dining area, so be sure to come back and check them out!
Hopefully, I'll be able decorate the rest of her home, in the future, and be able to share that with you too!

Finally!!! I am sharing with you the full reveal of the New Fork Project, a Contemporary Rustic home nestled in the South Salt Lake Valley. If you follow me on Instagram, then you have seen many photos of this home. I was privileged enough to be hired by the homeowners to work on this home from pre-construction to completion. The construction of the home took roughly 18 months. During that time I worked closely with my clients and the amazing homebuilder, Cameo Homes, in designing and selecting ever inch of this home. I was given the amazing opportunity to not only design the home itself, but also the furnishings, art, accessories, etc. This project was a true labor of love. My clients are some of the kindest, most sincere people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They always treated me with kindness and respect. They valued my opinion and professional eye and put 100% of their faith in me. I can't thank them and the incredible team at Cameo Homes enough. Together, the 3 of us, were truly able to create something dreams are made of. As I share pictures of this home over the next few days, I hope you will find some inspiration from them.
First up, is the reveal of the Family Room. This room has so many beautiful details. From the dark stained ceiling beams, to the incredible stone fireplace and fireplace wall with insane finish carpentry and cabinetry, it is truly a show stopper. When you add the majestic mountain views, as seen through the gorgeous wall of windows, this room can't be beat. Take a look.

Tomorrow, I'll be sharing the Kitchen and Dining area with you! You won't want to miss it.
Today, I am pleased to be posting another reveal from the Primrose Project. Last week, I posted the reveal of the Teen Bedroom from this remodel project. If you thought that before and after was dramatic, wait till you see this one! I'll dive into the details shortly, but right now, let's just soak in the all the prettiness from the Primrose Project family room. :)
Do you love it? I absolutely do. For reference, here is what the space looked like before...
And now...
Isn't the transformation insane????
I mentioned in my previous post that this was a full interior and exterior remodel project. We took the main floor down to the studs in order to achieve the look and feel my clients desired. They asked for an updated, bright, clean yet comfortable space, where their family could gather without the distraction of a tv in the background.
When I first saw the space, I was immediately struck by the awkward placement of the fireplace. I decided to move the fireplace from the corner to the center of the room and add a window, where the fireplace previously was. This created a focal point in the room and also allowed us to create a symmetry with the windows. We placed the old windows with new gridded windows. The new windows are black on the outside and white on the inside, which was a complete win - win for my design of this house. I designed the new mantel and fireplace wall to be trimmed out and painted Simply White by Benjamin Moore. My finish carpenter also cased and trimmed the new windows. The walls were then painted Classic Gray by Benjamin Moore. We replaced the old carpet and tile floor with quarter sawn white oak floors, which were then stained a gorgeous, rich brown.
The living room was finished off with all new furniture, accessories and a gorgeous piece of art. The result is a fresh and bright, beautifully transformed space.
My amazing clients were such troopers during the whole remodel process. They moved their family of seven into the basement while my team and I took over the top two floors of their home, for almost 5 months! They were happy and smiling through the entire process. They put 110% of their trust in me. I am so grateful to them for that. The homeowners have repeatedly expressed how their newly remodeled home has surpassed any expectations they may have had going into the project. For me, hearing that, is the ultimate reward.
Stay tuned for the full reveal of the kitchen and dining area!!
