Living spaces with sectionals.

Colorful, small bathrooms

















Since the poster mentioned slanted ceilings...

Two-story rooms with light fixtures.

Modern looking tapestry or similar cloth hangings? Have a two-story family room with a lot of noise transmission to the upstairs bedrooms, which I’m trying to reduce. Hoping to find attractive wall coverings that absorb sound and don’t look like they’re from the Middle Ages.

That blue-and-white sofa/wallpaper combo ruined my day

I think IKEA sells these sound-proof foam pad things; you could theoretically put any piece of art that you want if you can fit the foam soundproofers behind them.

Just an idea (from someone else who hates noise in the house).

EyeCandy here. I’m trying to share variety when people don’t give me much to go on. I don’t think I’ll ever post a set where every single image makes every heart sing. Hopefully, you can enjoy a few of the other images.

It was designed by Mark Sikes for a Mountain View home, featured in Veranda.

I think this can be tough to pull off as an amateur. I would also look for ways to add more soft materials to the rest of the room - window/door treatments, rugs, skirted furniture, pillows, plants, lining bookcase bask with grasscloth...before going for tapestry.

The only professional designer I've seen using tapestry recently is Carlos Garcia in the UK.



Decorated for the holidays...




But I did some searching and found some more.





This is A LOT of look.

Do you have more of the white kitchen above? The gigantic one with the light fixture, double windows and huge island? Thank you!

Thank you OP! For making me realize there is no way I can pull those off

I will take your suggestions for the rest of the room. Also perhaps I’ll go for a big canvas with foam panels inside. Any recommended stores for high-quality unique oversized canvas paintings?

Oh wow, these recent pictures are beautiful. Do you have time for one more request? A dining room/library combo? I saw something like this in Paris and it was stunning. And thank you!!

NP and not a designer but what about a textile with more of an artisan feel instead of a tapestry? We have friends with a gorgeous quilt made by artists in the south. Or a textile with a cool pattern from a different country could have a modern feel to it, depending on pattern and color.

This one?


It's by a builder who constructs enormous homes in Utah. Here's the far end of the room:


This is the wall where the photographer stood to take the first photo:
