Great conversation and great design go hand in hand in this Okanagan living room. In a room defined by light and anchored by the classic lines of the fireplace and iconic grand piano, you can find inspiration for your own living room gatherings.  This is a design that invites people to engage both with the space and with others.

This living room embraces texture and colour in the furnishing.  The gloss of the deep hardwood floors is softened by the comforting use of velvet upholstery. Deep cushions rest on clean lines of custom furniture – a look that is both polished and welcoming.  Clear, clean-lined tables keep stuffiness at bay.

You can choose the design element that speaks directly to you and use it as a style marker when making your own decisions. The bold use of colour on display, from the creamy whites of the wainscoting to the stylized pumpkin shades of the ottoman playing in contrast to the teal velvets on the side chairs, is a directional statement.  When it comes to making an update, consider the show-stopping simplicity of the Bocci chandelier, a modern counterpoint to the classic details of the space.

Find your inspiration and run with it – it is easier than you may think. Many of the room details are sourced directly from Okanagan retailers including the florals, rugs and artwork.  Custom pieces can be found through Kelowna-based designers with expert eyes and large portfolios of work throughout the Okanagan.
