Before and After: WestEnd Lofts

A couple of days ago I posted a little mini tour of the WestEnd Lofts that I've given my life to over the past two months. Well today, because I know how much I love it when people post before and afters, here are some to give you a real sense of what one of these units looks like bare, and what it looks like with what I like to call, the magic touch. Many thanks to the designer,Nadia Geller who's been teaching me a whole lot. So behold:

These are just of the main sales space. If you like, I'll post more of the other units over the next couple of days!

I love how blue makes an appearance in every room so far! That wallpaper in the bathroom is to die for!

Omg Laure - what a fabulous transformation!! Merci beaucoup for sharing pics, and yes, please share more when you can.

Oh and if you're ever in Austin, can you come redecorate my apartment? ;-)

I would love to see more photos!

I live in another Kor development, Molino Street lofts, and sometimes find it hard to wrap my head around the large open space. So many of the lofts published in magazines are so minimal, which is great, but it's just not my style.

Did you work on the Molino model loft as well?

laure said...

Wow, Erica that's awesome, I was just there the other day working on more models! I'll post some of those coming up.

Sparker I haven't worked on the Molino Lofts but the same design principles would apply!

Congrats, Laure, on a job really really well done! These photos - and the ones on AT - are stunning. I'm getting in line behind Carolyn; if you ever take your design talents on the road, come up for a consultation at my house.

I can't wait to see what you've got lined up next!

Love how feminine and warm it is but still modern, hip and a little edgy!

Down Pillow said...
