I just said to my husband, literally less than 12 hours ago, that I wished I had 2 loveseats facing eachother, and a rectangle coffee table in my living room.
As it stands, my living room looks like this. Pretty, but uninspiring and mostly filled with beautiful, inherited furniture I did not pick out myself.
But I’m thinking that since my living room is long and narrow like the one pictured here (ok, not as long and much more narrow), I’d like it to look like this instead:

So now I’m on the hunt for the pieces that would help me recreate this look in my own home. I’ll need 2 of these sofas from Restoration Hardware.

A gaggle of beautiful throw pillows with a hint of turquoise, my favorite color….

A distressed wood coffee table that I wouldn’t have to worry much about, and with the bottom shelf for my design and fashion books.

An ottoman in matching Danish linen for extra seating and bonus! extra storage.
