Decorating from the Outside In- 2...

 

Starting with the living room, what are your decor choices based on the exterior of this house?

Obviously it's a contemporary style house; but first change would be the FRONT.  Too many colors, materials and a lot of poor combinations which results in a miss-match of everything.  I expect the living room is no different - cold - non-inviting.

Agree with @fthunt. Too much style confusion. Unappealing house from the outside. I see bare floors and hard furniture in too-bright colors. Or worse, all monochromes, glass and steel. Looks like @Bri36 is on to something hopeful. 

Can't warm up to this one, though!

Have to agree gizmogal....can't warm up to this one either.  I know what designers would do, but this style lacks comfort to me.  I prefer a home that feels as good as it looks.

I feel the entrance of the home is "mid century Modern" with some contemporary furnishings would do well.

 

Warming it up with some warm wood tables and and textures with a color that I favor.
