Here are some before and after photos of some of the opportunities I've had to redesign for my clients.

See what a difference the right scale makes in this alcove, using smaller chairs and a smaller but taller lamp!
Before:	After:
Moving the hutch provides access to the adjoining family room and the discovery in another room of the small tables provides a place for a cup of tea and a book! The lamp also came from another room and sheds light on the reader's book. The found picture is a lovely addition to the room.

Instead of all the wasted space and the lack of a conversation area, we have created 2 sitting areas, one facing out to the spacious golf course view, the other, allowing one to enjoy the cozy fireplace.
Before:	After:

In the before, there are three recliners crowding the room with the singular function of television viewing. Out of view to the left is a charming bay window into which we moved the white recliner and ottoman, thus creating an additional function for the room: a comfortable reading nook. By turning the sofa to a corner angle and drawing up the 2 gray recliners, we have created a comfortable conversational area and easy tv viewing. Addition of a discovered redwood burl table serves the area well. Also, the artwork on the brick wall glows in sharp contrast to the previous washed out picture. Other artwork accentuates the white wall and creates a truly homey look.
