Every now and then I come across an image that I could literally gain 50 design ideas from, and today is one of those days. This family room image has so many great design ideas that I had to share it with you. If you are looking to add some pizazz to your room without going overboard try these tips from this bold but sophisticated room.
- Introduce a bold colored/patterned area rug. This ‘FAMILY” rug brings color and inspiration without it knocking you over the head with bold patterns.
- Introduce dark colors in one or 2 pieces of furniture and then keep the rest of the room in subtle hues of that color and neutrals. The navy blue side chairs give just enough color to this almost all white room. The rug and throw pillows add another way to reiterate the casual blue theme.

- Add sparkle and illumination with natural light and eye-catching decoration. These pendant spheres add just the right amount of drama in this multistory space and create a fun way to address the large volume of the expansive glass. In any room that has a lot of volume use items such as a large potted plant, ceiling hanging decor, sparkling surfaces, and natural light sources to diffuse how large the space could feel.
Whether you are looking to add a few new pieces to a room, or you are designing a room from scratch, you can often find all of your design inspiration in one image. While flipping through hundreds of interior magazines may seem like a better choice, sometimes reducing your choices down to one single source will solve more of your design dilemmas than you originally thought.
Happy designing!
