Give a new life to an old space

                      Give a new life to an old space

                                    Furniture that makes a difference

      You have long hair, yet it is brittle, dry and not shiny any longer. You see those short hair styles are popular this season, and, ultimately, a desire to cut your hair engulfs you. After sometime, a realization arises that you actually love your hair long: it suits you, it defines you. You can either cut it off and forget about it or put time and effort to improve what you already have.
    This metaphor is making a point: in order to change a look, there is no need to start from scratch; you can simply improve what you love.
Say you have a specious and open foyer, yet it appears a  little blend and predictable. What you are looking for is a space that impresses right from the start. Here is an idea: Choose a bold, rich color for the walls: foyers can pull off even a darker shade, due to the presence of the windows and the doors, there is a great presence of natural light. Next step is too find a sofa, but not just a regular "grey" sofa; the sofa must be unique, find one that speaks to you in terms of color, shape and details. Not only is the sofa beautiful for the eye, but also extremely practical: who likes putting shoes on standing? Use the color wheel to establish the most successful relationships between the colors. Furthermore, lighting fixtures can act as an upgrade for the look, choosing a chandelier that grabs attention is a way to go. By making those simple changes your old foyer will be unrecognizable.
  
We love our new addition to the store: the absolutely gorgeous  "Robbins Egg Sofa". Pure leather, vibrant color, elegant shape - talking about first impression!
 
If you have a space limitations omit the idea of a sofa and welcome the armchair. Arm chair can also serve as accent furniture giving the same benefits. Choose one that has character and makes a statement -  Cameron Gold Leafed Chair with Navy Velvet Upholstery will make a perfect center piece
Mirrors are one of the best transformers for any space. They are extraordinary versatile and  tend to add depth to any space - they visually make the space large and appealing. .


Keep in mind, this exact same beautiful chandelier in black (as above)  is available at The Accessory Store:


Bellow is another example of how a combination of a mirror and a central lightning piece creates a new dynamic. The Accessory store has a diverse collection of mirrors both in-store and on-line.
A unique console can be just as beautiful, as functional. Choose one with interesting details or glass inserts for an eye catching look. Also, a console with multiple thin shelves is a great companion at hiding shoes.  
So next time you decide for a drastic change think twice. Embrace what you love, improve what you have.
