Design Story
Exposed brick and a double-height window give this Washington Place living room a strong architectural presence. TIOR STUDIO softens that structure with low ivory seating, circular rugs, and warm bronze accents.
The contrast is deliberate: industrial surfaces stay visible, while curved furniture and diffused light make the room feel intimate. Each piece is placed to preserve the height, fireplace, and long sightline to the garden.
A Soft Curve Against Brick
The low ivory sofa creates a gentle counterpoint to the tall brick wall and steel shelving.
Comfort Beside the Hearth
A rounded lounge chair turns the fireplace edge into an intimate place to pause.
Warm Light in the Double Height
The broad copper pendant lowers the visual center of the tall room and adds a warm glow above the seating.
A Compact Fireside Pairing
A glass-topped side table gives the lounge chair function without adding visual weight.
Storage as Architecture
The open metal shelving follows the full height of the brick wall and becomes part of the room's structure.
A Sculptural Wall Light
The circular wall light brings a concentrated bronze accent to the raw fireplace surround.
Upholstery with a Quiet Profile
Soft, continuous upholstery keeps the main sofa calm and visually low within the vertical space.
A Metallic Note at the Shelf
The cylindrical side table connects the bronze lighting and the darker architectural finishes.
The Room at Eye Level
From the entry, the seating remains open to the garden while the fireplace and shelving frame the composition.
A Composition Seen from Above
The elevated angle shows how the curved pieces, layered rugs, and circular tables establish a clear center.
