Equestrian Living and Foyer
Posted by msaet02 on Tuesday, October 13, 2015.
The equestrian style is a classy and fun style with a predominance of horse décor . Silvers, along with gold tones can be seen with this style. (An equal mix of the two is a nice touch.) Colors seen with this style, especially when paired with British décor, are warm colors such as red, navy, and forest green.
In the living room that I'm designing for my British clients, I'm using a few leather pieces, along with storage trunks as end tables. The fireplace is surrounded by shelving to store precious travel collectibles, as my clients love to travel. The back of the white shelving is painted red for a pop of "British inspiration". Of course, a Union Jack pillow has to be included!
This is the living room floor plan that is also open to the kitchen.
And this is the final rendered living room floor plan. Imagine a chilly British night in front of a cozy fireplace surrounded by beautiful fabrics and finishes.
In the foyer, I'm focusing more on a navy blue palette with an upscale feel. Often overlooked, the foyer is a great place to design in a more polished manner, because you don't eat or sleep in the foyer. It is the perfect area to showcase the way the rest of your home looks. First impressions are the best impressions!! So make a great one!!
Here are some of the foyer materials:
