After reviewing everyone's suggestions and brainstorming I came up with an idea that I'm super excited about. I want to get a large piece of wood - like 4 feet x 4 feet and wash it with white stain. I contacted one of my local printers about doing a large format print on top of it.
For just $8 a sq. ft. we could have something like this:
Or this:
(not necessarily this image - I just wanted to show that we could print a FULL image on the wood)
Or this:
I like the idea of having a black and white line drawing of furniture or something scientific. Like a vintage scientific drawing of a plant or skeleton.
Coming up with something to put on there is going to be like deciding on a tattoo. So many possibilities.
Rachel pointed out that we need something bold above the fireplace to help draw the eye up. I think something like this would work there. Or behind the TV.
And I think this space could use a full length leaning mirror. Or a huge starburst clock/mirror.
The image of those chairs is AWESOME. Heck, I may commission you to do one of those for me!
ReplyDeleteI'm leaning towards the chairs one right now. That's just an image I found for inspiration so I'll need to create something. I have a book on chairs that I can pull from.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to! I'll let you know how it turns out for sure!
