The arched opening of the living room directly faces the arched opening of the family’s media room across a wide hallway. It was important for us to create a color palette that was distinct in each but also analogous because of the open sight lines between the two rooms. We opted for a warm neutral wall color in each space and expressed the differences on the fifth wall: the ceilings. In the living room we papered the ceiling in a thickly textured, basket weave grass cloth. Brilliant shades of coral, lime, sunny yellow, plum, and turquoise accent fabrics contrast the otherwise neutral space.
