Re: Living Room With White Washed Ceiling

To me what ties the room together, gives it substance and  a focal point and presence is the piece over the fireplace.


Without that it would be a disjointed mess and you wouldn't know where to look.

The chandelier and crest are out of place to me.  The chandelier says dungeon, like maybe the couple has "whitewashed" their main room but has a secret room for "other" activities.  Cat SurprisedCat Embarassed


@lolakimono  I didn't care for that chandelier either.  It does give that feeling of a dark castle to me.  I got a kick out of the "other" room.  Torture chamber, perhaps? LOL!

I like the wood floor and the roll up shades on the windows.  That's about it!!

Re: Living Room With White Washed Ceiling

It would be a lovely room with interesting architectural elements but that crest over the fireplace is hideous and ruins the whole effect.  Better to have nothing.  8 like the ceiling a lot.

Re: Living Room With White Washed Ceiling

@Oznell   This is the sofa pillow combination I finally decided on for my sofa.  It's the one on the left. The only difference is I bought the cream pillow in a lumbar. My sofa is cream with some soft tan and brown threads running through it.  It  looks a lot like the cream in the pairing I picked out.   I want to do a throw on the other end.  Not sure what color to get.  I do have one of the blue/gray wildflower pillows left over so may throw that on top of whatever throw I buy. I do have a dusty navy/denim leather chair the extra wildflower pillow would  look good on if I choose just the throw for the other end of my sofa.

@Kachina624    Yes, I would want to definitely change that crest out for something else.

Re: Living Room With White Washed Ceiling

This is a very pretty room with much appeal.  I do love the ceiling.  The only change I would make is the furniture, I prefer a different style of couch and chairs.  Other than that very nice warm area!

Re: Living Room With White Washed Ceiling

I do like the white washed ceiling.

 

Cons for me the crest over fp

coffee table 

rugs

pillows

the windows over the lower windows.

 

everything else is doable with me..

Having encountered many bats (over the years), I would never want a ceiling that high. 

 

I'm also wondering how much trouble that grandfather clock would be to wind. (It's kind of in a crowded area.)
