modern living

The furniture and accent pieces in a well decorated home home can as often be driven as much by the owner's taste as by the style of a house. Just as a business man dresses the part with a 3 piece suit and a designer watch, if you have a formal or semi-formal living room, the type of art and clocks you should reflect that sensibility.

We looked at many homes before we bought the one we have and passed on several as their modern style really called for a spare and high-tech look, Eichlers and Danish Modern furniture just seem to naturally go together. For our mission furniture, heavy china hutch and grandfather clock, we needed and got an older home with oak floors and leaded glass double-hung windows. With everything coordinated with each other, I really think the house, even though we have really only lived here for a relatively short time, really feels like a home. I think the people that have all come to visit (the originally two but now three of) us have said the same thing. Everything belongs, including the newest occupants.
