Before + After: A Fearless And Dramatic Home Transformation

It’s no surprise that the before and after of this family home is nothing short of amazing. While this home was already structurally beautiful, the interiors needed the touch of a designer to fully realize the space’s potential. These clients came to Pulp after trying to furnish the spaces themselves unsuccessfully despite their great style. See the jaw-dropping before and afters of this fearless family home…

Entryway

“We love a good entryway transformation. It’s a space that should be utilized for style and function. We added a bench with eye-catching fabric to create an area where you can sit and get ready as you head out the door”

“The living room was tricky because the TV was off centered due to the placement of the fireplace. Our clients use the living room to enjoy sports and TV together, so we designed the space to include seating that was centered around the TV, without throwing off the rest of the space.”
