Before: Living Room

Dated interior featuring heavy traditional furnishings, ornate decorative elements, and warm-toned walls. The space lacked cohesion, with cluttered surfaces, mismatched lighting, and an inefficient layout that diminished the room's architectural potential and natural light.

After: Living Room

SMID reimagined this residence with clean architectural lines, a refined monochromatic palette, and strategic spatial planning. SMID designed custom millwork, including an illuminated wine display and sleek media cabinetry, to anchor the space. Sara's thoughtful material selection creates an elevated atmosphere, while recessed lighting and expansive window treatments maximize natural light throughout.
