The new red wall...

This is my lanai and how it was set up. Unfortunately, the bamboo fench is getting older and older and leaving an eyesore on the wall. Aside from this, because of the green walls, green tile and the green shade, the area seems so dull. The monochromatic scheme, even with a touch of browns and reds are not complimenting each other. I want to leave some mystique on the area since i like to transform this space into a balinese retreat.
So i decided to paint the wall red. I chose a bright red to highlight the area and make this space popped up. I also painted the left wall with the same color to unify the space.
I remove decors that obstruct the bamboo fence. I constructed a bamboo planter and put the ferns instead.
Now i have a small pocket garden. I want to trim down the plants and put some bromeliads instead. I am excited to arrange this and make it pleasing to the eye. I have an idea on my mind already and i am just gathering the things i need for this make over.
Look how the ferns was highlighted now that their colors are in contrast. I so love how it was hang there. It became the focal point on the space.

First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you ...

The Living Room Evolution...

Would you go for a distinct look?... Or something with comfort? Actually, the last pic was my new living room. Though i love the style of my old living room, with my hard wood japanese sofa, it compromise my need for comfort. Honestly, my mother is always complaining that the wood is so hard to sit in and was not too comfty. I bought the japanese sofa last November 2009 because im looking for a japanese themed living room, and voila, i found one and i know its a great deal. Ive been looking for the same kind for so long and this one is I thought perfect for the theme. Unfortunately, and by experience, i cannot last long sitting on the hardwood even if pillows are there for relieve, its just too hard and painful on the butt! So one time when i was in a mall just trying to look for a replacement, i saw this cream sofa made of real wood and leather. It was a perfect choice because it looks like the one in the 4th edition of real home living magazine, the color book which became my inspi...
