Same room, different owners. Which one do you prefer? I had a TOUGH time with this one because I like them both in different ways. Do you prefer Doug or Debra? (Names are in the corner of the pictures).
Off topic, check out tomorrow's post on my blog, LeesaBee. There's a shout out to you and your blog, along with a few pics. I hope you don't mind. (If you do, let me know. I still have time to redo).
Hm. I think I like Debra's more...it just looks like you could relax and put your feet up on the furniture without getting yelled at. And yes, that is one of my major rdecorating requirements!
I like the bottom one the best because I don't like wall mounted flat screens or glass table tops. The side chairs also look comfier but I would rather replace them with sofa chairs- much comfier!
Debra's is more to my liking. It seems fresher and more contemporary. I do love the stacked wooden boxes in the corner of Doug's version, so I'd like to replace Debra's baskets with those.
Neither/both. Although lovely, both palettes are too neutral for my taste. I like the candlesticks and mirror on his mantel; I like the flowers on hers and would put them on the other side of his mantel, where the marble ball is. I like her art and his stacked boxes. I like the shape of his coffee table and the dark wood of hers. I like her big baskets. Neither of the armchairs would be roomy enough to suit me. Her occasional table is pretty but too tall and "tippy" to have around my grandkids. I'm a Kaffe Fassett girl, all the way: overkill on pattern, color, and texture.
Still, it's fascinating to see how two owners decorate the same room.
Can't pick one because I'd combine pieces of each to make my room. Love the bones of this room, however, the window, fireplace...lovely. I like her coffee table, chair, art, flowers, baskets and his urn and other elements. No TV needed for my room in either version.
Ewww...this is hard for me...Upon first glance I would probably have said Debra's room...but after really looking at both rooms, I THINK I would prefer Doug's. Mainly b/c there are only a couple of elements I don't care for in his room, one being the flat screen on the wall...however, there are more things I love! I love his wall sconce, the mantel with the fab mirror, I love the stacked boxes and the urns...basically I could live with the glass tables...but even though I love his chair...I would certainly consider replacing it with something a little more on the cozy side. That's may take on it today...if I look at it tomorrow...I could change my mind. So, I'll try not to.
This is hard because I like the mirror over the fireplace in the 1st one but then I like the decor and layout of the 2an one. I guess the 2an one is what I would choose.

I'd go with Debra myself. It looks so serene
ReplyDeleteThat's hard, but I think I like Doug's the best.

Sandra...
ReplyDeleteNada problem girl...you know that!!
I will def ck you out g/f!
I still have not made up my mind...I'm leaning towards Deb... both really nice tho
Hmmm, I think I would say Debra, it seems less cluttered. Although I do really love the wall color in the first pic.
ReplyDeleteBoth are great rooms, but I think I'd have to go with Debra's design. It is a little more casual and comfy...that's definitely my style.
ReplyDeleteMmmm debra, I think it's a little more relaxed, which appeals to me more.
ReplyDeleteDebra, mostly because I own that coffee table.

ReplyDeleteDoug for sure. a) mirror on the fireplace - you need something on that space above and b) color palette is warmer
ReplyDeleteDebra's seems much more inviting with the fresh flowers and the cozy looking chair.
ReplyDeleteDoug. I love the mirror. The chair. Not sure about the tv, but hey, my tv is in our great room. I like the wall sconce and the furniture below it.
ReplyDeleteGotta be Doug. I love the warm wood tone in the corner, the chair, the hint of green, yeah.
ReplyDeleteI vote for Doug... seems a little cleaner and he plays more with scale. Love the TV, too!
ReplyDeleteSimply Debra!
ReplyDeleteSuzy
Debra...Like her art like her lighting like her flowers and like her books...and like her wall color better...breathier (new word)
ReplyDeleteI chose Doug's even though there is a tv on the wall; the colour, the textures look good.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... so tough!!! I'd have to say Debra but I'd really love to mix elements of both rooms! :)

Debra - I don't like the little tv, it looks too out of place. Glass table tops are not my fav either. Love the fireplace though!!!
ReplyDeleteI like Doug's lighting and furniture choices but could do without the flat screen.
ReplyDeleteCan't pick one because I'd combine pieces of each to make my room. Love the bones of this room, however, the window, fireplace...lovely. I like her coffee table, chair, art, flowers, baskets and his urn and other elements. No TV needed for my room in either version.
ReplyDeleteDebra's definitely. Way more style and design. The space works and has a personality.

I vote Debra -but Doug for over the fireplace! I cant make up rules cant i?!!
ReplyDeleteDoug's. Love the mirror, the box, and the chair.
ReplyDeleteMay I please pick doug with the chair from Debra?
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Debra. Doug's gold/brass accents turn me off.
ReplyDeleteI really like elements of both!
ReplyDeleteI love Debra room

ReplyDeleteDebra, because there's no TV showing. Hate seeing a TV. They're never pretty, should always be hidden... PJ
ReplyDeleteThey're all so beautiful, but I think I love Doug's, but wish he had Debra's chair!
