Sitting Pretty

Looking to redesign a room in your home? Precedent can help you create the look you are searching for! Pick your favorite look and follow these easy tips and you'll be on your way to creating a space perfect for you. 

Modern Elegance: 

To achieve this look, contrast dark fabrics with light walls. This gives depth to the room and allows your furniture to really pop! Use a clean line sofa, like our 3128-S1, and pair with accent chairs that have simple curves to break up the space. Using a bench ottoman rather than a cocktail table can add that extra twist of modernism.

Accent with metallic by adding in accessories like a starburst mirror and platinum nailhead trim. Try geometric print fabrics to add structure and masculinity. Always remember to play with textures. Here we've used leather on our L3119-C3 swivel chair, mohair on our 3134-O1 ottoman, and a shag rug to add just the right amount of visual contrast.


Old World Paris: 

Create your own European getaway with our Parisian Loft collection. This collection is inspired by old world styling and new aged design. Our Custom Loft Collection gives you the ability to customize a piece by choosing from different arm styles, base options, and configurations.

Using earthy tones like creams, taupes, and browns, along with textures like exposed brick and sandblasted wood will help achieve this look. Accents like old framed maps and unique antiques will transport you to a loft in Paris circa 1940. Bring in an accent chair, like our L3110-C1, in a warm, worn leather to complete the look!

Asian Flair:

To add an Asian flair to your room, think about simplicity. Choose a sofa with clean, delicate lines, like our 2910-S1 paired with the 2963-C1 chair. The occasional pieces include the 212-915 end table, the 212-770 console table, and the 212-840 cocktail table from our sister company, CTH-Sherrill Occasional. This collection is very architectural in form, but still conveys a far east infusion. 

Accent with Asian inspired fabric, like the Japanese influenced floral print above. Incorporating bamboo shoots as a piece of art can add a touch of sophistication. Add a Bonsai tree for a touch a green and the perfect amount of Asian flair. 

Beach Chic: 

Creating a beach inspired room is all about a light and airy feel. Here we see light fabrics paired with a light floor and walls. An exposed beam ceiling also creates more height and openness. Paired with CTH occasional pieces in a matte platinum finish adds to the lightness of the room. Accenting with fresh, organic leaves brings in a tropical note.

Our Urban Planning Collection offers versatility and plenty of seating in this setting. Part of our custom seating programs, this collection can be customized to fit your space. It offers clean, relaxed styling, perfect for a beach inspired room.
