Occupied Staging:

Step 1 was to ask the home owners if there were any issues with the room. In this room it was reported to be too dark. This was great insight and therefore we honed in on trying to convert this to a light and airy space.

Step 2 was to have the owners remove about 30% of their belongings from the area. It is important to create a non-cluttered feel in which owners feel like they could live in.

Step 3: rearrange the furniture as much as the room will allow. Arm chair was placed at a 90 degree angle to the couch to facilitate conversations. A blue/grey book shelf from another room was added to the blank wall. This was then styled. A mirror was added to increase reflection throughout the space

Step 5: Added light. 3 additional lamps were added to the space. It is important to have at least 3 sources of light in each room

Step 6: Add different textures of light neutral textiles.

Finish it off with a pop of accessories! :)
