| Room Design - Light Studio Apartment |

My latest project was to come up with a bright and airy design for a studio apartment for less than $3,000. My client likes to have people over a lot so she wanted plenty of sitting space. For seating I gave her a small sofa, a bench, a Moroccan pouf, a couple of trunks that can be used as a coffee tables or seating and a couple of bar stools. Also, by placing the bed long-ways against the wall it can function as a daybed/sofa. The trunks, bench and nightstand all have storage. And she has a casual eating area with the bar table and stools.

I used white as the backdrop and accented it with natural touches: wood, grasscloth and leather. I also shined it up a bit with the pewter velvet, the gray tufted quilt, the aluminum end table, the steel bar table and the silver chandelier. I hope you guys like it!
