Mason came to ccino and was ready to create a home he was proud of, one that displayed his classy contemporary style. He had two sets of prints that he absolutely loved and wanted to incorporate these into his new Aksarben Loft in Omaha. The tricky part of this project was that the lofts were not even completed and all I had was a tiny 1/8″ scaled floor plan and his paintings to work from. Talk about a small space challenge! His living area had an angled wall and measured 14′ x 10′ with an opening to his third level deck. Working an appropriate amount of comfortable furniture into this space, but not overcrowding it is vital. The great news? Art is always a great inspiration and starting point for any room.
Mason's art inspired room
He mentioned his love for cooking and entertaining, and was hoping to have seating enough for 8 at any given time. He also was in love with cool gray tones, soft blues, and wanted a clean masculine look. I began the design process with my floor plan and found a smaller-scaled sofa that fit better in the space by placing it at an angle. If done effectively, angling furniture pieces can be a simple fix to opening up a room and can give any room a unique perspective; it also allows traffic patterns to run more naturally. The two red ottomans have an optional tray on the underside and can be used for seating as well. They also serve as additional storage and their bright hue is a nice pop of visual interest to the other cool tones in the space.
Bold colors like these ottomans require confidence!
