By creating temper boards, you possibly can swap out completely different items and design parts. This lets you instantly get a way of how these swaps will have an effect on the design as a complete.
Learn on for what we’ve up to date within the visitor room up to now, what’s coming subsequent, and two temper boards that offer you a way of various aesthetics I’m contemplating bringing to this area.
Visitor Room Design Updates We’ve Made So Far
We first updated the wallpaper and trim color on this room earlier this 12 months. Just lately, I added a beautiful vintage dresser from an area vintage retailer, Art and Architecture. This piece provides extra character and storage to the area. I additionally added a unique overhead gentle from the identical vintage retailer. Lastly, I modified the structure.

Visitor Room Design Temper Boards
Under, you’ll see examples of the sorts of items I’m pondering of choosing for this area. These possible aren’t the precise items we’ll go along with, however by pulling them collectively on temper boards, I used to be in a position to get a greater sense of the types and emotions I need to evoke in our visitor room. The items I pulled will function inspiration for my future looking for this area.
This temper board path leans extra conventional with punchier contrasts in coloration and elegance. I like the thought of getting polished furnishings classing with a postmodern Italian bamboo mirror, traditional-print pillows, and a geometrical wool blanket casually strewn atop a glam Hollywood Regency-style mattress. A lot enjoyable. It’s nonetheless comfortable and female however with an edge.

This temper board path is a little bit Scandinavian and a little bit conventional with a splash of prep faculty. I feel it’s all about getting the sample combine proper right here—too matchy-matchy or too anticipated in scale can really feel drained. I like the thought of classing a graphic cloth print in an outsized scale with architectural lamps, delicate embossed busts in frames, and marbled paper lamp shades, all highlighting the point of interest—a playfully fashionable wooden mattress.
