Re: Fresh Looking Room

@jubilant I like the look of the zebra rug in this room, as long as it's a zebra print and not an actual skin. I also like the art, but I don't like the curtain trim. If they wanted black trim, I get that, but I've have chosen differently. I don't tend to be a fan of geometrics.

I think this room is beautifully done. The one thing I don’t like is the pattern on the curtains. It creates a straight line that throws the rest of the room off. My eye gets stuck on that line. That is never good. It has to flow.

@stevieb Thank you for posting the picture for me! It's so nice to be able to see what everyone else is seeing I always enjoy seeing rooms from Ballard.

@jubilant It's a nice vibrant room. I like it. What I really don't prefer is the shiplap, is that what it's called, on the wall. A solid wall painted a very minty green would suit my taste better.

Thanks for posting.

Looks like giant postage stamps on the wall. And I don't understand the zebra rug.

I like the colors and furnishings of this room. I don't care for the artwork or rug.

I don't love it but I don't hate it either. I'd have to tweak it quite a bit. I'd get rid of the shiplap and the green (replaced with tan). I'm not digging the style of chairs but I do love the stripe fabric on those by the fireplace. I'm not feeling the zebra print and would probably go with a geometic print instead. The flower prints are OK but I'd remove those on the top level. I think this grouping goes too high on that wall. I know others have said they don't care for the trim on the window treatments but that is my favorite item in the whole room.
