When my husband and I initially moved in together it was into his pre-existing apartment. We planned on living there for at least another year and slowly began purchasing new pieces of furniture and art to replace the “bachelor” items he previously had in place. It was exciting to pick out new items together and, after over a year, our main living space had come together in a way I was really happy with.
Fast forward to a couple months later when we were forced to move to a newly renovated apartment across the hall. Our new home is absolutely gorgeous but has an entirely different layout than our last one. All of the furniture and art we excitedly purchased? Well, it awkwardly found a home in our new loft-like living/dining/office space. Awkwardly being the key word. It works and I did my best to make it feel like home but after living in the new apartment for six months it has become so clear that some changes are needed in order to achieve our desired layout.
When I came across online interior design website Laurel & Wolf, I was inspired to dream up a living room remodel and to start really thinking about what changes I’d like to make in our space. While I may not be able to achieve them all immediately, I’m confident that by getting my ideas together I am taking the first step in turning this dream living room remodel into a reality.
