Luxe Living Room

Interior design goes a long way in a remodel. There weren’t a lot of architectural changes to this living room remodel by Mosaik Design of Portland, OR. But the furnishings and fixtures elevate a simple room into a stylish space. I think color palette is key to a good interior design. In this room, the blues and grey play well together and there’s just a pop of color with the plants and yellow throw. It’s well composed and photographs very nicely.
