Glamorous Wallpaper {Before & After}

Last week I shared a few sketches and pictures from a client’s current space that is undergoing an expansion.  I am loving the progress in the additional space that is currently undergoing a major update. I stopped by this past weekend to see the gorgeous wallpaper being installed and also dropped of two pieces for the main lobby (more about that in a bit).

We instantly fell in love with this Jazz wallpaper from Seabrook when we originally designed the space. So when we began to talk about what we were going to do with the additional space, the wallpaper was #1 on the list. The large blank back wall in one of the treatment rooms was screaming for something special!  Here is a look of the wallpaper we installed on the fireplace. This room is going to be the new lobby…we just had to make the fireplace front and center.

Here is the BEFORE & AFTER!  The dingy and icky grey carpet was the first thing to go! A new coat of lavender paint on the walls and a fresh coat of white paint for the trim were next on the to-do list.  Now that the wallpaper is up and and the new wood floors are down, we can bring in the furniture and accessories!

Here is a better look  at the accent wall. I loved the graphic element on the fireplace, but it looks amazing on a full wall! The silver, grey and warm purple pattern create the glamourous feel that my client wants for her space!   From the moment it went up, the room became brighter and instantly felt larger.

And as promised, I wanted to share a few pictures of the white mongolian fur x-benches that were just delivered! They will be accent pieces in the new lobby! My client has been out of town the past few days and I can’t wait to see what she thinks of the x-benches and of course the overhaul in the back treatment room!  We are still waiting on a few custom pieces of furniture and glitzy chandelier to arrive, you know I’ll post pics as soon as they are in!
