Creating Visual Moments

Having your first apartment is exciting but can be daunting if decorating or space planning does not come naturally to you. You can gather books and articles on various styles and trendy suggestions but it comes down to making the space work for you. Create a visual moment: a designation in your room that pleases the eye and plays with your imagination. One of the most used spaces is the Living Room. How do you create spots of interest?


First, ask yourself what activities will happen in the living room.


The most time spent in the living room is watching TV. Pick a sensational TV console to compliment your flat screen. Imagine yourself as a “gladiator.” This reclaimed designed console is sophisticated and simple while setting a strong presence for that flat screen TV. It’s an urbanite. Our Urban Blend TV console made Apartment Therapy’s Top Ten Media Console 2014 Guide.



Imagine yourself as the travel journalist when you post those weekend photos of the bike ride and spectacular sunset. A small desk 36” to 48” wide behind the sofa or on the small wall between your windows gives you a visual moment of adventure. Just add laptop. The City Grove desk works in an earth tone, monochromatic or black and white room. The Plum Galaxy desk adds a pop color to any nook area. Let it take the lead and accent with bright Yellow or Spring Green Chair.
