Living Room

"I brought the outdoors into the room," says Mitchell. "The palette is based on things from the natural world, such as birds, grass, and sky." A seating area defined by a leaf-green rug floats in the middle of the room, and pale green walls, glass accents, and organic motifs give the space a dreamy atmosphere. Cotton fabrics and approachable furniture forms reflect the farmhouse flavor. "A living room should be comfortable," he says. "There are no chairs in here that people are afraid to sit on."
