Clients needed living room to double as guest a space, the sofa converts to a full bed:

Asian details. I seperated the panels of an antique silk screen ($20) for more interest, the green wall frames each panel:

    Love the Chinoiserie touches! And that wall color makes everything look fresh and clean.

    Great how you turned that place into a palace… warm and open and inviting vs. claustorphopic and depressing. Sylvie is Mrs. Sunshine… I like the enlargement feature.

    No, I think many are reading…….I’m the only one of a few who are commenting! I love your posts. Don’t get discouraged when your readers don’t comment. If they are like me, they read a lot of blogs and just don’t have (or take) the time to comment. 🙂
