- Furniture arrangement should prioritize a comfortable viewing
angle for both the fireplace and the TV, potentially using a
sectional to address multiple focal points.
- Incorporating muted jewel tones and a mix of contemporary
patterns and textures can modernize a Spanish colonial design.
- Printed sheets with different scales of patterns can add visual
interest without overwhelming a room, and places like Pottery Barn
Kids, Crate Kids, and Target offer great options for kids'
bedding.
