The team just finished installing a new clubhouse lobby this week and I wanted to share a couple of photos of the space.
This lobby areas biggest challenge was the super high ceilings! Previously, the lobby had a very woodsy, farmhouse look. The new owners had already put in new flooring and wall paint/treatments when they called us about the project.
BEFORE:
Before: Lobby area
Before: Fireplace/Work Desk
Before Dining Area:
We were asked to provide the furnishings and decorative details for an environment which would appeal to the residents, made up predominately of college students.
AFTER:
Dining Area
As I said, the biggest challenge was how to manage the height of the room. This was done with a series of wall shelves which go up to over 15 ft above the ground.
We also added really dramatic head chairs at both ends of the table!
Fireplace/Work Desk Area
Where better to wait for the University bus than by the fireplace in some cozy, leather wing chairs! The art above the fireplace ties nicely into the other side of the room, which is very modern.
Lobby
The main area needed a really big chandelier and what is actually a full sized dining table, not your usual ‘entry table’.

Design isn’t always glamorous, so special thanks to Raquel (thank goodness she isn’t afraid of heights) and Emily, both of whom spent the entire day onsite to finish the project!
Based on the photos, I’d say they did a great job!
