Traditional Style Open Living

So this fall a really interesting client emailed requesting an online consult. K and her family have just recently moved into a new house, and are working toward creating a harmonious home incorporating Feng Shui.<br /><br />I was at once intrigued. I have a very loose knowledge of the Feng Shui principles, having applied certain bits to my own home. Even if you do not specifically subscribe to the belief that our homes have energy passing through them, and we can funnel that energy in ways that are beneficial to us, I think that anyone who is consciously working to create harmony and order in their home to better their life is probably applying this same effort in other areas of their life, and this will likely bring them some great results. There are also some facets of Feng Shui that simply reflect good design principles, such as incorporating mirrors to bounce light (or energy :) around, eliminating clutter and restricting your colour palette. There is also the familiarity factor: it may bring a certain sense of peace to a person knowing that specific areas of your home are always going to contain certain colours, for example.<br /><br />The first room K wanted to work on was her family room. A traditional modern family two-story, the family room is open to the kitchen/eating area.<br /><br />Here are some of the before shots:<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc8sk7paok0t_-R1uqHRezn2XmBkIyka8aVOwZVyQZE1AEL7h97b7p0AGhfkEUQXsReJSRGA_KwjgXzk0LBuhUuiF9oyDZRFibzNNPpV6GxgxFQc2dWui8CIrLXh9qjf4maHqQv3hqQvA/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.04.55+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc8sk7paok0t_-R1uqHRezn2XmBkIyka8aVOwZVyQZE1AEL7h97b7p0AGhfkEUQXsReJSRGA_KwjgXzk0LBuhUuiF9oyDZRFibzNNPpV6GxgxFQc2dWui8CIrLXh9qjf4maHqQv3hqQvA/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.04.55+PM.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3gfybzKdRUJiajwLYzHYVIKoaT6X8WKJWt_utODXzU9mAyNhQX4gW-HE-AnXhFn3Nl-0iWgYwMP66Go6ujsVNUkA8H2sCOhE5qwTp9tmp7ODzW019TQp19uRpGLLcA7iSwXfLfGHAbjw/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.06.10+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3gfybzKdRUJiajwLYzHYVIKoaT6X8WKJWt_utODXzU9mAyNhQX4gW-HE-AnXhFn3Nl-0iWgYwMP66Go6ujsVNUkA8H2sCOhE5qwTp9tmp7ODzW019TQp19uRpGLLcA7iSwXfLfGHAbjw/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.06.10+PM.png" /></a></div><br /><br />Beautiful wood floors that complement the cabinetry tones, a lovely fireplace with built-ins, a breakfast nook and plenty of natural light and space - this home has great bones to work with!<br /><br /><br />K wanted to work with blues or greys, to bring the best fang shui for the particular positioning and placement in the home found here. I agreed that cool-toned walls would work, as her space receives warm southern light and has all that lovely warm wood for balance. Blue pairs effortlessly with orange-toned woods because they are complements on the colour wheel, and blue brings out the richness of the wood. K has bold colours present throughout her home, and wanted this space to have some character.<br /><br />After working out that K quite liked modern furnishings, we needed to find a way to mesh those styles with her home, which is much more traditional. She had already ordered a white leather sofa. The first thing to work on was the floor plan. By placing the sofa against the wall we opened up the room, creating a better flow (for Feng Shui and design purposes!) I suggested K purchase two chairs to face the sofa, thereby adding comfortable seating without blocking the doorway off. A low bench positioned where the sofa had previously sat provides additional seating for larger gatherings but still allows the two areas to be connected.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3U-X_WN8CCn6ZgQAKgWDjJwQ-NGpGP3HxmJtzMF4_8kee5X4VfI1TxL3gD_uNlWFAUWg6PGsQgy7E0y3Kj4Xssr5uu4l9lUzwWtWYjJNLViQGlHkHU-WAcYruANW18EUJL8O1LmFvjTc/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-10-21+at+3.17.06+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="367" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3U-X_WN8CCn6ZgQAKgWDjJwQ-NGpGP3HxmJtzMF4_8kee5X4VfI1TxL3gD_uNlWFAUWg6PGsQgy7E0y3Kj4Xssr5uu4l9lUzwWtWYjJNLViQGlHkHU-WAcYruANW18EUJL8O1LmFvjTc/s640/Screen+Shot+2012-10-21+at+3.17.06+PM.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Since we are planning to move onto the living and dining areas next, I suggested adding a warm orange in small accents to give us another colour to pull out in the adjoining rooms.

These chairs work with the wood tones present, and the modern abstract back picks up on the legs of her new dining chairs. Having just the seat upholstered blue allows for that hit of colour without the commitment - it would be easy to swap out this fabric down the road.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr4RUHcakmYXVSJE1M0efWYIxT0lrH18-Enhaw1sdOxMuplqR3yslOSUjAMKsqr5_SnP-T7cGoUAVWK5v4wc-MP83ypqVOEReaQ2oWy2RmS0kPo0ksy6YvC8kmWfiEWz40wiGshAU2rPA/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.43.33+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr4RUHcakmYXVSJE1M0efWYIxT0lrH18-Enhaw1sdOxMuplqR3yslOSUjAMKsqr5_SnP-T7cGoUAVWK5v4wc-MP83ypqVOEReaQ2oWy2RmS0kPo0ksy6YvC8kmWfiEWz40wiGshAU2rPA/s640/Screen+Shot+2013-01-22+at+1.43.33+PM.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">After receiving that board, K mentioned wanting a more neutral option to show here husband, who wasn't sure about the blue.

I assured her that in the warm southern light at the back of her home Gray Owl would appear more neutral, and suggested she try a swatch out. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB4hXKWk0tOVItJKjdDgjOn4yNpcXXxISybjyx5-4P0QT5jhQX2yguIWZUikBuZ84NPI6zObkIQb_D6jdPcGYgeEKx5fvKIpLPe4F47357uWAPum4sxuEzvCeSFmH44Pu-p-cbNPhPoBs/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-11-01+at+5.08.10+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB4hXKWk0tOVItJKjdDgjOn4yNpcXXxISybjyx5-4P0QT5jhQX2yguIWZUikBuZ84NPI6zObkIQb_D6jdPcGYgeEKx5fvKIpLPe4F47357uWAPum4sxuEzvCeSFmH44Pu-p-cbNPhPoBs/s640/Screen+Shot+2012-11-01+at+5.08.10+PM.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I sent her another board illustrating this neutral palette option.
