"A Davidson Home Reveal"

So excited to be back to share the reveal of this fabulous project.  This Davidson, NC home had us at hello. 


When we met with the homeowners, they had already begun purchasing some of the furnishings. They quickly realized that making their new house a cozy space they'd be proud of was going to require more than nice furniture.   Their major concern was the first floor living space.  Here's a look at the living area when we first visited.  


While they had ample functional seating, the space was pretty drab and devoid of any personality or finishing touches.  We presented the vision for the space which included new lighting, a transition from a large sectional to a comfy sofa and two swivel chairs, coffee table, end table and a piece from the Belle by Cheryl Luckett collection.

The client really liked earth tones but we shifted things a bit because the spaces were so light and airy that we wanted to maintain that feeling if possible.


Here's how things came together in the living area...





We absolutely love the addition of The Park Parson's Table from the Belle by Cheryl Luckett collection for Sylvester Alexander in this corner.  After all was said and done, our client told us it was her favorite thing in the entire space.  Yay!!


Also, sometimes we find that it's that one special small element that brings it all together.  I fell in love with N'gala Trading at last year's High Point Market and knew I had to begin working them into projects.  They have an amazing assortment of stylish African and African-inspired furnishings, textiles, lighting and accessories.

This pillow was just the right finishing touch. 


We always make it a point to work in Revolution Performance Fabrics.  These swivel chairs scream style without screaming stain-resistant.  Sylvester Alexander did an amazing job on them.  And can we talk about that Addison Weeks hardware we added to this simple drink table? 



The kitchen was already beautifully built and appointed when we arrived, so the addition of stylish bar stools was all that was needed.  We selected the Marcello Counter Stool from Ballard Designs and couldn't have been more pleased.  


Adjacent to the kitchen is this lovely light-filled breakfast nook.   The clients had already purchased a Bernhardt dining table and chairs so we just needed to dress things up.


While the chandelier wasn't bad (at all), it didn't quite jive with where we were going so we opted to change it out for something that would flow with the other spaces.   The driving factor in this area was the original Kelly O'Neal art we sourced at High Point Market.  The colors and scale were perfect for the space.

The painting helped to accentuate the height of the area and consume some of the dead space created by the pitch of the roof.


In the formal dining area, we again worked with the homeowner's existing Bernhardt furnishings.

We amped things up here with lighting and beautiful grasscloth wallpaper.  I still love this Wildwood chandelier.  It was delicate but striking.

I've said it before, but it's worth repeating, design is in the details.  This project was a great example of how nice furniture will only get you so far.  It's the other elements that are often more difficult to bring together that complete a space.  Thankfully our clients let us help them take things to the finish line. 

Lastly, the open entry got a new chandelier and a round entry table to welcome guests in to this beautiful home.
