Yellow and Teal Drawing Room

10 Dec 2020

An elegant room with period features decorated in an eclectic style.   With lovely rich wall colour, beautiful embroidered curtains and a pelmet which helps to reduce the impression of the very high ceiling, a contemporary ocelot fabric on the sofa, a lovely traditional gold stripe on the chair, and a bohemian embroidery on the stool.  The golden yellow and teal is a lovely combination that brings the room into the twenty-first century.
