The Ballard Bungalow project is complete and turned out picture perfect. We tried a few new (even risky?) things and the results paid off.
Before: This rectangle room was cramped with no flow to the furnishings, lack luster paint and a drab floor.
The clients have two dogs, so we needed to pick colors and materials that would be paw and fur friendly. They also wanted a semi-formal room to curl up with a book as well as entertain. We chose Benjamin Moore Light Khaki in an egg shell finish for the walls. One of the true stars of the room is the vintage ceiling light fixture that’s original to the house. In order to highlight the light and give some sizzle to the room, the ceiling was painted with Benjamin Moore’s Newburyport Blue in a flat finish (
why flat?).
It was important to the clients that we avoid purchasing from big box retailers and repurpose as much furniture and finishes as possible. The vintage camel back sofa came from
The House in Magnolia and other furnishings were found online. With the dogs in mind,
Flor tiles in a celery color were laid in the living room. Should anything happen, be it dog or drink, the tiles can easily be replaced and afforded a perfect fit for this unusually sized room.

I love it! That ceiling color is gorgeous!! I've been wanting to paint something in our house a similar color... maybe I'll steal this look for my husband's office! --And I love "The House". I wish I had space for so many of their pieces.
Another job well done Sheridan & Co.
