{one room three ways} beachy modern living room

This has been a lot of fun to put together!  I’m liking this new brainchild of {one room three ways} where I reuse two to three of the same pieces – be it sofa, lamp, chair, etc. – and create rooms different styles of rooms using those core pieces.

Earlier this week we started with a classic English roll arm sofa (in a fun cranberry color) and a beautiful mirrored coffee table on castors, used in a “french eclectic” style living room.  Here’s a reminder of our two carryover pieces…

I can totally picture this room looking out onto the ocean…say, on the West Coast, down in Florida, or perhaps in the Outer Banks.  Or, I can just as soon see it set the vibe for a landlubber’s cute little arts-and-crafts bungalow trying to capture the essence of the beach.  It’s a comfortable room – but still clean and refined…and it’s so much fun with the bright white floors and beadboard and pops of color, the rug pattern, and the sparkly chandelier and coffee table.

Would you add or subtract anything to the look?  How do you like the turquoise and cranberry color combo?

Any requests for the third room style?!  Let me know what you think!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog! :) I had fun browsing through your posts. We lived in the DC area for a while, too. First Annandale and then a townhouse in Manassas :)

Have a great day!
