Transitional Dining Room in Ashburn, Virginia

In the formal living room, we brought in four new chairs with a flared leg that provide a sleek, stylish silhouette and make an ideal spot for lounging. A round, rich navy tufted velvet cocktail table also acts as an ottoman. A chandelier with crystal droplets that dangle within diamond fretwork is show-stopping and brings in just the right amount of sparkle.  The Persian-inspired rug has a well-worn look that grounds the intimate conversation area without taking over and the artwork is a beautiful distressed navy blue abstract modern dandelion.  With a perfect balance of elegance and comfort, this transitional living room has a feeling of sophistication without being stuffy.

In the family room, the existing stone fireplace was the centerpiece of the space. We toned down the orange/reddish tones by bringing out the grays and creams with new paint colors and intentional styling elements.  We love how the artwork in this space was large enough in scale to help break up this massive wall and give it some breathing room.

When designing the Transitional Dining Room, we utilized family heirloom pieces as well as furniture that was important to this couple. We updated the paint color to a rich navy blue on top and utilized a white for the chair rail and below. We brought in rugs, draperies, drapery hardware, buffet lamps, Chinoiserie accessories on the sideboard, and the perfect marriage between old and new.  The art is a 3D abstract seascape epoxy resin geode that is crystal hand-painted.
