Actually, before and better. This set of furniture is unique because of the way the seating fits nice and snug underneath the tables. To me, this concept makes the pieces contemporary. Anyone that works in design would agree that the 'before' look of the furniture is far from contemporary. The furniture carries a dark and rustic feel. The triangle shaped seating is far from conservative so no wonder it was a hard sell to most clients. But sometimes, a client understands and can visualize that if the tones are changed to be more suitable to their home environment, the pieces will be a success. This is one of those success stories. Inspired by the gold/silver box shown in the first photo, the set could free itself from the land of misfit furniture. Even though the 'inspiration box' has more silver, you must respect and understand that the seat cushions have a deep, almost purple, hue to them. Shifting more to a gold palette respects complementary colors. And I could enjoy adding another relationship to the list of clients that trusted in me to bring their vision to life.
