Citrus Surround
Nothing will wake you up in the morning quite like this citrus-inspired breakfast nook. The shade is especially vibrant and playful when paired with modern, white chairs and silver accents. Designer Celia Berliner coordinated oak flooring to serve as a warm complement to the bright walls.
Designer's Notes
This modern condo is a pied-a-terre where the client stays when coming into the city to enjoy the Portland art scene. The large accent wall, a vibrant orange, reflects the client's favorite color. The painting above the sofa is an original by the designer. Photo by Seth Lolich Gardner.
We warm up this formal living and dining room with punchy paint colors, bold patterns and an eclectic collection of accessories. Bold striped drapes tie the living room back into the pumpkin orange dining room. The other patterns used are neutral tones and at smaller scales so as not to compete but rather enhance the others. For example, the dark taupe and cream Greek key rug is similarly geometric but medium in scale and the whimsical small feather pattern on the sofa has a striped background. Reflective metal and glass accessories placed throughout help lighten the dark wood and rich colors in the adjacent rooms. Customized furniture is carefully sized to an appropriate scale in this high-ceilinged living room and adjacent cozier dining room.
