Get This LOOK for LESS...

Main Picture

 

Combining color, patterns, and textures with carefully planned balance gives this high end living room an interesting sophistication with a high end price tag. The sofa alone, a stunning Andrew Martin piece, can cost over $4,000 itself. You can, however, achieve a very similar look for a lot less money. Be sure to pay close attention to proportion to maintain the overall balance of the room. Check out these alternatives to get you started:

Pillows:

Here are some fabric choices that will mirror the look above. Although not exact, it is a start. If you don't sew you can consult one of several Design Style Guide members who can make the pillows for you. It is also a good idea to consult them before you buy any fabrics. They will advice you on how much you will need, getting swatches first, and helping you to be sure it will all coordinate together.

Ask them too if they have any fabrics in their own inventory that may work for you. This could save you more money. Click on the swatches for more information.
