Designing an Open Living Room and Dining Room Around a Beloved Burgundy Lounge Chair

I was hired to create a calm yet modernized space out of this family’s “eclectic” open dining and living room areas. There was just one caveat: the husband’s beloved burgundy leather lounge chair had to stay, creating an obvious focal point not necessarily connected to the goal of the project. It took a lot of creative thinking to revamp this space and ensure that I not only met the clients’ desired goals but also have everything in this room look intentional and cohesive.  When we completed the project, the couple hosted the synagogue's “kiddush club.” The wife commented, “Even the men who joined said how beautiful our living room and dining room are now.” That says a lot!

Client Testimony

"This is a rave review about Tsivya Fox-Dobuler, who helped us redecorate our living room/dining room and turned it into an area that is both exquisite and comfortable.  Additionally, it is very much to our taste, which Tsivya intuits.

Tsivya knew how to purchase one item at a time while envisioning the entirety of the project. She faced a particular challenge as she had to design around my husband’s very comfortable, yet, not stylish, burgundy recliner that needed to be kept at all costs for our Shalom Bayit :-)

Everyone who walks into our home showers compliments on the space. Tsivya is delightful to work with and I highly recommend hiring her for your design needs!" Tamar Har-Oz
