Living room rehab

Somehow over the course of the last year or two our living room has gone in a direction that I’m not entirely happy with. Things evolve from a functional perspective and you accumulate more stuff. One day you look around and you wonder how it all ended up that way.

To that end we’ve decided to wipe the slate clean and do something different with the space. Not entirely different because we do like the over all feel, just something less cluttered and more clean feeling.

We jettisoned the love seat that we had and bought this sofa from a really cool couple that posted an ad for it on Craigslist:

this was taken before we sold the loveseat

We have another sofa – this microfiber sleeper sofa from Dania:
Veneta sofa

It’s a nice piece of furniture but it doesn’t quite fit anymore so I listed it on Craigslist today. In the meantime Jason hit up our favorite Goodwill and found a gem – a vintage burnt orange chair. The orange plays off the green of our walls nicely:

its pretty low to the ground so even Fee can climb into it easily

Once we sell the sofa it will make room for an ottoman of some kind. We are hoping to find something that will compliment both the chair and the new sofa.
