Before, the living room has an eclectic mix of furniture that is’t arranged well. The walls are gray and it doesn’t have enough lighting. But the new living room looks very different with wooden flooring and white colors that has added pops of red.

Aside from the new flooring, lights were also added on the flooring and ceiling. Notice that wall system that has lights on it. And there are new furniture as well.

The hallway looks creepy before but now, it looks grand and it even has a hotel feel especially with the decors added to it.

This photo is taken from the angle of the entrance hallway, where you can see that it has been opened up to make the living room, dining room, and kitchen more accessible. The new design also let light through it.

I really like the idea of how they lighted the flooring that gives the kitchen a visual appeal that it is floating from the floor.

The living room has a theme of red, white and wood which takes over the space. The sofa is new with white colors with a round glass coffee table.

The space has been opened up wherein the living and dining room are sharing the same space. Notice the design of the legs of the dining table.
