HoMe DeCoR 4: Ep 3: ClaSsiCal ChiC 经典时尚风

This episode kick starts the more intricate and tricky topics that follows..To adorn the living living rooms with classical english pieces yet with a touch of chic, aka fashionable and trendy.But with a budget of $6000, its kind of a tricky because for this eisode, my contestant’s five room flat has got a really huge living room and i was worried that the space would be difficult to fill.After much deliberation, i decided to go with a black an white approach to today’s theme..and now, the before pictures…

Besides the huge space area, the store room that pops out in the middle of the living room was irking me too..

IMG_2338.JPG

Putting aside our worries, we got to work and did the transformation…

IMG_2342.JPG

behind the tv console,we diy this foam backing covered with pin stripped cloth to soften the harsh wall..

IMG_2356.JPG

On the dinning room wall, a sort of a classical chic form of “black board” was done framed with wooden trimmings which we whitewashed to contrast against the oyster grey walls..we also transformed an ordinary lampshade but cutting out the image of a chandelier out of black velvet cloth and glued it onto the shade using 3M’s spray adhesive glue..

IMG_2373.JPG

To break the long  horizontal wall, we did the classic regency stripes and also, covered the store room door with the same foam wall panellings that we did for the tv console..

IMG_2363.JPG

thru the mirrors hung on the wall, we transfered the furnitures onto the regency stripped walls to act also like some kind of picture..

We were more then pleased with the eventual transformation..

and so were the judges

who awarded us with the nod of approval.

what fun it was.. and merry too..

and here’s to one and all,

have a blessed ChriStmAs…………

    Hi Bryan, congratulation on your win. It’s very classic.

    Initially I wanted to do up my new house in Indochine Style. So I got the renovation done up. After which, I bought furniture from Manhattan for my daughter’s bedroom. But I ended buying furniture for my bedroom as well and “accidentally” change it to Modern Classic style. Now I’m neither here nor there. So fustrated. Don’t know what to do..
