For this dining room, we designed and built our own dining table. We found this gorgeous polished nickel pedestal base and worked with a talented company to create an oval dining table that is 50” wide by 110” long. We are mimicking the proportions of the classic MCM tulip table. This table size completely fills the space and maximizes the seating capacity. On one end of the room we have a fireplace and on the end you can see below, we added a really tall cabinet. The cabinet is white but has a mirrored honeycomb pattern so it reflects the color on the opposite wall.
We added Panton style chairs in white linen and a custom sized white hair on hide rug. Texture and scale working together here. #midcenturymodern Eclectic Decor Dining Room, Mid Century Modern Dining Room, Custom Coffee Table, Tulip Table, Oval Dining Table, White Dining Room, Tall Cabinet, Rug Texture, Hide Rug

Colorful Modernism Living Room | Colorful, MCM Interiors by Violet Marsh Interiors

A close up of the Colorful Modernism project 😍 It isn't everyday that you get to work with a client that believes the more color and pattern, the better -- so when you do, you go for it! Rooted in playful modernism and vibrant color, this home went from neutral and simple to completely custom and special to our client. #midcenturymodern #modernism #livingroomdesign

Colorful Modernism Bedroom in Morningside | Violet Marsh Interiors

The living room of our Colorful Modernism project is drenched in color, so we toned it down in the primary bedroom. With fabulous blue mesh wall lights, a shaggy wool rug, and organic bedding, the completed space is the perfect balance of natural and luxurious 🤍

I have had my eyes on this turquoise and brass chest from Jonathan Adler and thought it was the perfect piece for this entryway. It offers lots of storage and a great horizontal surface to add a few personal items. The mirror is an heirloom piece from Julian Chichester and has a hand made molded feel that sort of looks like paper mache. The wallpaper is such a great scale for this space and is neutral while being super interesting. The scribbles are actually dimensional and pop out from the white grasscloth background.

The client fell in love with this colorful rug and we filled in from here. We kept the seating neutral with black and white fabrics on the four DWR chairs and designed this amazing yellow lacquer coffee table to stretch down the length of the sofa. I love the colors together. It’s so cheerful. These red side tables are wrapped in leather and are so dreamy and I found these MCM vintage lamps at one of my favorite local lamp shops— Lamp Arts.

In the colorful modernism guest bedroom, we wallpapered the the floating closet and updated the bedding with a patterned comforter. We are not afraid of color or pattern over here!

The Colorful Modernism living room was all about color so we pulled back some in the family room. A creamy textural rug set the tone complemented by a custom media console that grounds the room and design. Acting as a first-floor man-cave, this space is ready for one of our client's favorite hobbies: catching a movie. Designed by Violet Marsh Interiors, Atlanta interior designer.
