A New Orleans Townhome

Our best friends have bought a townhome on St. Charles!

Obviously the location is perfect and Mardi Gras season just got interesting.

It is 3 beds 2 baths and full of potential...it just needs some tweaking and that's where I come in.

They envision a white space with pops of color but staying true to the area. This home will be used as a rental from time to time so fabrics and surfaces have to be durable...it is New Orleans...parties will be going on.

 I have created an inspiration board for them on Pinterest titled Ann's New Orleans Townhome for them to grab ideas from.

Here are some pics of how it looks now:

The kitchen has a copper hood and decent counter tops with distressed white/cream cabs...not our favorite but can be worked with so here is my inspiration

The dining room is a blank slate so here is my suggestion

This fixture reminds me of a musical instrument which would be perfect and Lord knows this needs to be replaced:

The interior courtyard

Bedrooms are blank slates as well and need to be kept luxurious but simple

I am so happy for them and can't wait for some long weekends in my favorite city.


If anyone else needs help with a space , I have plenty of vision left over for you too.
