![]() ![]() it entailed an hour video chat with a designer. the colour consultation was extremely valuable, especially with the scale of this project & knowing that the colour had to be perfect the first time around. i seriously can’t even picture this space another colour & i am now obsessed with mizzle. i was stuck narrowing down what colour to pick, so i used farrow & ball’s virtual colour consultation which helped me land on the most perfect colour ever: mizzle. ![]() i didn’t want the space to look like you were walking into a different home, but i still needed something neutral for imagery. i find white spaces a little boring (unpopular opinion I know) & would not fit the craftsman vibe of the rest of the house. we went with the 12 foot length boards which eliminated any visible seams.Īnother thing i knew from the beginning is that i did not want the room to be white. although we didn’t install it ourselves, the builders said it was a breeze to install! it works both horizontally & vertically, so we switched it up for the ceiling & had the shiplap run opposite to the walls. we went with the metrie complete 5.5 inch polar white shiplap. it gives it such a cozy cottage vibe & adds that extra bit of character to the walls that drywall doesn’t bring. I knew right from the beginning that i wanted the room to be finished floor to ceiling in vertical shiplap. so much thought & detail went into picking each fixture & finish, so i figured i would break that down for you in a blog post! this is the first time i got to design a space from scratch & it was seriously so much fun. does that even make sense? idk, but i just really wanted to showcase the room itself before all the furniture goes in. It is truly the room our little house was missing & i cannot get over stepping into this studio every morning to have my coffee & answer e-mails! it is a multipurpose room to be used as both my photography studio & office so let’s call this blog post the after of the before. i take months to decide on a sweater, so you can only imagine how long it would take me to decide on finishes. we have been planning this room since we bought the house in 2016 & it was so worth the wait. we had local architect forest green creations design us a room that dreams are made of & the construction officially began in october with lynchwood design & build. if you have been following along on instagram, i shared in the fall that justin & i were building a studio addition to our 1928 craftsman home. Oh em gee the studio is done!!!! although i am calling this post the “before” it is technically the after because this room didn’t even used to exist. ![]()
