1 Dear Rosetta, In this proposal letter I have included the following documents for you to look over: my initial notes and ideas for the space my reasoning and ideas for the selection pictures of the items to be used within the space furnishing schedule including product, supplier and costing I have provided an alternative floor plan as I have used a curved sofa. This has been included on my scheme board. My recommendation for the wall colour is Gold Shadow by Taubman s.

2 Design Brief Requirements Recommendations for a decorating scheme for the living/dining room Recommendations should include furniture, light fittings and decorating accessories Relaxing atmosphere Warm colour scheme Environment should reflect her company style high class sophistication as she intends to entertain clients European feeling in texture and style Fireplace to be the focal point appropriate fireplace surround Neutral beige carpet has been selected Welcomes advice on wall colours Furniture Finishes Wood, glass, marble and textiles Colour Scheme Neutral Beige, black, white, red and gold Furniture Sofa (sandstone coloured fabric) Coffee table (dark wood with glass top) Lamps Side table (dark wood with glass top) Dining table 6 chairs (black leather chairs, dark wood and glass table) Credenza (Dark wood and gloss white) Console table (white marble and dark wood) Chair (red and white pattern upholstery) Floor lamp (red and white pattern) Floor lamp (white and silver) Table lamp (white and silver) Decorative Accessories 5 x cushion (2 red, 3 gold - pattern and texture) Round rug (black and white) Glass vases (red) Gold picture frame 2 x artwork with gold frame (one above fireplace and one above side board) White orchid in a white pot (on side table) Large potted bird of paradise plant

3 I have chosen a range of finishes for the furniture including wood, glass, marble and textiles to give the space a sophisticated feel. The black, white, neutral beige and brown will be complimented with the addition of decorative accessories in red and gold which will add warmth to the space. Pattern and texture has been included to give interest and create focal points within the room. I have bought some natural elements into the space with the use of artworks featuring flowers and leaves and adding potted plants. This will give the room and relaxed feeling. I have chosen a round coffee table, side table and rug to compliment the curve in the sofa. The colours of these items blend with many of the others in the space. Jimmy Possum makes such bold statement pieces and I thought this would make a perfect reading chair in the corner of the space as a focal piece. In my proposed designs I have placed a floor lamp in behind the chair to provide light to read by. I have chosen this sofa to ensure the fireplace is the focus of the space, but to also allow conversation when entertaining people/clients. The fabric type and colour I have chosen is Portland in Sandstone to compliment the beige carpet that has been chosen. See samples for other available options. This table setting has a combination of aluminium, glass and leather. It ties all the other pieces of furniture in the space together, as I have chosen items with one or two of these materials. I have chosen a marble fireplace surround to give both a European and sophisticated feel and look. There is a lot of carved stone incorporated into European architecture. I have also selected a console table with a white marble top to compliment the fireplace colour and texture.

4 This credenza combines many of the elements from the room together in one piece, with its chrome, lacquer and wood finish. I have also included a couple of potted plants to replicate the relaxing feel and bring in a natural/outdoor element. With many of the decoration accessories I wanted to bring in a touch of colour and by using red it has given warmth to the space. There has also been a lot of texture and pattern introduced to give interest. With the lighting in this room I have chosen a couple of patterned pieces to give interest to the space. The other pieces I have kept plain as they have been coupled with a bold piece of furniture and I didn t want them to detract from those pieces. The artworks I have chosen are from nature to bring in an element of calm and to help make the space relaxing. These images are both from my Autumn Scanner Art Collection.
