Luxurious Master Bedroom Updates

bed1

The most important room in the home is the bedroom. Decorating the master bedroom to fit your personal style is a must. We spend more time relaxing in the master bedroom than any other room in the home. Adding comfortable pillows, plush fabrics and a luxurious headboard will instantly change your space for the better. Color is key too! Don’t go too bold with jewel tones, rather stick to softer hues that fit both a masculine and feminine feeling. Creating the perfect master bedroom is easy to do over the weekend, and we’ll show you how to do it.

We love to begin with color. Choose a palette that fits your personal style, and keep in mind the size and shape of your master bedroom. Larger spaces tend to feel airy and open, and using cooler colors can make the space feel less intimate and cozy. Do you want the space to feel more modern and clean or cozy and comfortable? Warmer colors tend to feel more feminine, yet also exude a romantic mood. Take advantage of various shades of grey for a soothing contemporary aesthetic. Using the right grey, whether it has warm or cool undertones is always a good choice for a master bedroom as it lends to both masculine and feminine aesthetics.

Another easy way to incorporate color without repainting the walls is with a luxury area rug. Also, the human eye groups luxury furniture together when it sits atop an area rug. If you have a larger master bedroom, and want to add visual interest to your space create a cozy look and feel with a separate sitting area. When relaxation is on your mind, but going to bed is not a reading chair is a perfect segway. Make sure to shop for a luxurious ottoman to rest your feet on that is both soft and comfortable. Make sure to purchase the right sized rug for the space, b by taking measurements to better understand the dimensions of your space. Interior design rules say furniture should sit on the perimeter of the rug to make the space feel larger.

At La Maison Interiors, our collection of headboards range from classic traditional to modern and contemporary. Incorporating a headboard into the master bedroom adds height to the space, and also gives an extra touch of design. Fine lines, curves and gorgeous wood finished luxury furniture pieces add visual interest to the space. Also, choosing a comfortable headboard to which you can rest your head against at night to watch television or read your favorite book offers that sumptuousness feeling we all seek when designing the perfect master bedroom.

However you choose to update the master bedroom, La Maison Interiors in Scottsdale has gorgeous pieces you don’t want to pass up on. Find an interior designer to help you make the harder decisions when it comes to color, fabric and arrangement.

Why Don’t You Have a Reading Chair?

No matter what style of reading you prefer, may it be on a tablet or a classic paperback book, a reading corner provides ultimate relaxation. Your living room, office space or master bedroom is the perfect spot for a lovely arm chair, small side table, floor lamp and ottoman to escape the day’s stress. No matter what you read, everyone needs some R&R right at home.

The living room is always a classic choice for a reading corner. Start with fabric to decide how you want to upholster your luxury furniture arm chair from La Maison Interiors. Our selection of plush and elegant armchairs and chaises will have you stuck at our showroom! We suggest including a bolster pillow for lumbar support in a solid fabric if your chair or chaise is a pattern or print. Include an ottoman that is comfortable and no wider than the chair/chaise to keep a balance between each piece. Shop the many luxury furniture pieces in our showroom, and try them out while you’re here. The perfect spot for a reading chair is closest to a fireplace (if you have one) or across from the established seating area. Create a space within the living room that feels separate, but still compliments the existing luxury furniture.

In the master bedroom, we highly suggest a chaise longue. This is the best option for total relaxation. A chaise longue offers what armchairs do not, a spot for tired feet. Include a bolster pillow here too, and a softer throw pillow to cozy up alongside at night. Not only does a chaise offer ultimate comfort, but it appears elegant and gorgeous alongside a king size bed. Place it in the corner of the room across from your bed to balance the space for an elegant look and feel. Include a blanket that adds texture to the chaise, and to keep warm at night despite the warm weather in Scottsdale there is nothing better than curling up with a soft blanket at night. Make sure all fabrics chosen are plush, elegant and fit the existing aesthetic in your master bedroom.

Another perfect spot for a reading chair is in your home office. Although most homeowners associate a home office with after hours work, it could also be the most private place in your home. If your office is completely dedicated to you this is your golden ticket. Place an armchair on the other side of the room, across from the desk or behind it, to carve out a space within a space. Include an ottoman of course and a small end table to finish off the look. A floor lamp or desk lamp is key here so not to use overhead lighting late at night.

Lighting is very important when it comes to curating the perfect reading corner. Choose a floor lamp that is adjustable in height and offers varied levels of dimming. You want to be able to see what you are reading at night, without it feeling to bright or fluorescent. Your eyes need rest, and a lamp that shines too much can be distracting. The many lovely floor lamps available at La Maison will surely have you walking out with a brand new piece that same day. The ottoman is key to finding ultimate relaxation in your space! Choose an ottoman that compliments your armchair’s fabric, and that feels comfortable to you. If you would like it to serve as a second table avoid pieces with a lot of bounce as you want to have a solid foundation for late night snacks and a drink. End tables are add dimension to a reading corner and add to the overall functionality of the space!

Designing the perfect office space, even if its in the master bedroom suite a desk at home increases productivity and offers an extra space for electronics. At the end of the day the last item on your list is to go back to work, but staying organized is key. Most homeowners enjoy having a desk at home because separating your work space from your personal space is key to a balanced lifestyle.

Choose a desk in any room of your home is both useful and adds a sense of style to your home. In the kitchen, use a desk to organize your family! A desk in the kitchen also serves as a place to leave work items. It creates a separate space for you to decompress after arriving home to spend quality time with your family. Choose a desk with the existing design elements in your kitchen for a cohesive look and feel. Consider mixing materials to offer a modern appeal that’s also very stylish and trending. In the living room, a desk adds dimension against a sofa and arm chair. Living room luxury furniture has a softer appeal with throw pillows and blankets decorating the space a desk contrasts these elements in a modern yet professional sense.

The most obvious place to incorporate a desk is in your home office. La Maison Interiors houses a multitude of luxury furniture to choose from in all kinds of styles. Whether you’re searching for a more traditional desk in a gorgeous warm wood finish or an item more modern that utilizes mixed materials we have options for you! When designing a home a office, think about how much space is available to you. Do you plan to work out of this office or simply use it to stay organized after work hours? We mention this because a desk should be functional yet stylish. If you require extra storage, but don’t want to sacrifice the look and feel for added drawer space we suggest purchasing baskets or installing shelves, or a filing system, to keep track of important documents and work related items.

We have so many styles of desks you are sure to find a piece you absolutely adore! We suggest pairing a desk with a brand new chair that speaks to your personality. Every gorgeous desk purchase should be accompanied by a similar chair purchase! Shop feminine styles or go more masculine for that special man in your life with a classic dark wood desk paired with a leather arm chair subtly embellished with studs. Go bold and make the desk a focal point in your home office with a completely contemporary design that steers away from traditional wood or metal and echoes a stone-granite like appearance. Not only does this add grandeur to your home office, the natural curves are a really nice touch instead of harsh clean lines.

The choice you make for your desk should be both functional and stylish! Factor in personal needs such as storage, desk space, height (make sure to sit down at the desk before purchasing) and of course the overall aesthetic. Visit our showroom in Scottsdale and find luxury furniture desks you will love! Our team of interior designers will help you find the perfect piece that suits your style and space.

Mix Match & Design Dream Kitchen Ideas

It’s nearly Spring time! Your kitchen windows open up again with loads of Arizona sunlight and warm weather. The gloomy skies fade away, and so should an old and tired kitchen design. We have fabulous ideas to give your space a makeover. We’re talking gorgeous fabrics, exquisite countertop materials and accessories to instantly bring a personal touch to the kitchen

The family recipe for a delicious dinner or dessert calls for exact ingredients and measurements, but what happens when you want to stray from the standard? Just like a chef, breaking away from the original family recipe could bring about a new and improved meal. We feel the same way about designing the kitchen to fit your personal style. Following the trends calls for mixing and matching materials. As the modern design era emerges, we’re seeing an influx of homeowners straying from the norm.

If you want to completely redesign the look and feel of your kitchen start with a new counter top. The key here is to stick with the same color families; use tones that are either cool or warm. Mixing both warm and cool tones appears scattered fostering poor aesthetics. Also make sure the contrast is strong enough to appear intentional. If you want to utilize marble or granite contrast it with quartz for a subtle elegant look. White is the safest choice here since it acts a base, and appears modern and minimalistic. Do not try to incorporate too many materials to keep the look streamlined. One of our favorite trends is matching stone counters with butcher block. Butcher block appears modern and clean but also has the most functionality. We suggest a stone or granite closer to the sink and leaving the block theme for all other countertop surfaces.

Lighting is another easy way to mix and match materials in your luxury kitchen. This year, warm metals trump the more sought after choice of chrome hardware. Try bronze, copper, brush nickel or gold instead! Copper is one of the more popular materials in 2015 kitchen interior design trends, but if you want a more subtle look brush nickel or gold is your go-to. Pendant lighting above an island will add drama to the kitchen and at La Maison Interiors we have a variety of beautiful lighting options sure to revamp your kitchen this year. Remember to create a sense of harmony though, as you can go crazy mixing metals, but without a central focus or design aesthetic you might miss the bill. If you love neutral colors stick to lighter tones. The most popular trio is wood, glass and metal. Both elegant and simple but interesting to the eye.

At La Maison, we have gorgeous dining room chairs you will love! We suggest experimenting with mixing and matching your chairs. This does take some planning and thought, but our talented interior designers are more than happy to meet with you and offer guidelines to choosing the perfect luxury furniture dining room chairs for your home. The easiest way to do this is through purchasing the same chair in different colors or wood finish. Keep a consistency no matter what; the same shape, material and style will help to bring this look to fruition. A burst of color is always acceptable in the kitchen especially if you have a neutral color base to start with; the fun comes in when you want to contrast these chairs. Take advantage of the many luxury furniture options at La Maison Interiors today! If color just is not your thing, stick with neutrals by choosing chairs that are black, white and wood. Go simple with this to avoid overloading on design elements. Another fun way to add interest is by mixing seat cover fabrics. Again, stick with a theme to create harmony, but don’t be afraid to mix stripes with a print if the color palettes match up.

Whether you’re looking to incorporate new materials in the kitchen, fabulous lighting options or luxury dining room chairs, La Maison Interiors is here to help! Visit our showroom today for more great ideas from our interior designers!

Is The Armoire Still A Meaningful Piece of Luxury Furniture?

The armoire is a traditional piece often overlooked as old and tired with the onset of modern interior design. There are so many different uses for an armoire we can’t knock it out of the running just yet. If you’re running low on storage space in the bedroom or dining room an armoire is a perfect solution. Repurposing is one way to incorporate it, but another way is to showcase personal items such as fine China. If you’re more apt to spending time outside then use an armoire as a gardening center. The armoire is a meaningful piece in the modern home because it adds visual interest to a space while acting as a functional piece of luxury furniture. Repurposing an armoire for a bedroom is a great way to breathe new life into a space. Not only does this piece add extra storage for linens and towels, but also it adds height to the space. If you don’t want display a television an armoire serves as a place to store it. Another popular use for armoires is extra closet space. Our personal favorite option is to repurpose the armoire as a shoe closet to stay organized all the time. Revert an armoire to fit your needs at home! Create a gardening shed outside if you want to keep tools and supplies in one place. In the kitchen, it’s vital to have ample space for food storage. If your kitchen lacks a dedicated pantry space an armoire is a fantastic solution.

What about design? Do you already love the armoire in your dining room but feel it does not coincide with the existing color palette? Depending on what color wood finish, wall color and fabrics are used in the dining room will dictate your design choices. At La Maison, we have beautiful armoires fit for any interior design style. When you’re searching for a new armoire think about the size of your space. This piece can vary in shape and size. Smaller armoires should be utilized in the bathroom while one that is taller would be best in the dining room. Choose an armoire with glass paneling for the dining room to showcase fine China or meaningful personal items. We have gorgeous sculpture, vases and ceramic pieces that will add visual interest to your space for a modern look and feel.

When space is at a premium treat an armoire as a mini room! If you need extra office space, a section to house arts and crafts or a sewing area is a perfect way to reinvent an unused armoire. The best type of armoire to use in this instance is one with two panel doors and no bottom drawer. You want to give yourself enough space to sit comfortably. Creating a space where you can escape, relax and feel productive without having to sit a desk is really quite enjoyable. When you’re shopping for an armoire decide what its purpose will be before deciding on a style. Showcasing items you love and are proud of calls for glass panel doors or open shelving while storing linens, sheets or extra clothing needs wood doors to hide your extra items.

Visit La Maison Interiors in Scottsdale and let one of our interior designers help you find the perfect armoire for your home. We will show you luxury furniture that speaks to your style and aesthetics in your home. Find a piece fit for any space whether its your bedroom, family room or dining room!
