Elegant Style

In the this living space, pale blue walls soothe the senses and act as a skylike backdrop for off-white furnishings. The upholsteries are soft colors in a variety of textures that give life and harmony to the room.

Tip: Be versatile. Choose furnishings, such as drop-leaf tables and ottomans, that can pull double duty when friends and family visit.
