Space-Savvy and Classy Living Room Renovation of Aged Seattle Home

Most modern makeovers and renovation generally follow a similar template with the old, aging house being extended into the rear yard and a more modern interior revamping the existing home. But there are a few projects that move away from this beaten path. Part of a bustling neighborhood in Bothell, Seattle, this residence hosts a family of three and has been largely unaltered since the 80’s AN old fireplace and dark backdrop shaped the existing living room. The homeowners wanted ULLE Studio to create a more elegant and modern living area clad in in neutral hues.

One of the first things you notice after the makeover is how the old fireplace was replaced by a sleeker modern version even as a large flat screen TV sits on top of it. Next to this, the old and forgotten little niche now has a dashing, custom wooden cabinet that helps in keeping the living area far more organized. Underneath this unit is some space to store firewood while a comfy leather sectional and a cool coffee table complete the living area.

Large glass doors on one side of the living area were left unaltered while the dining room on the other side features a fabulous wall art piece that ends up stealing the spotlight in here. A practical and spacious-conscious budget makeover that combines form and functionality beautifully!
