Cozy & Hectic Family Rooms

Design Ideas from Alcher with Sale Products

Love the look of wood but have active kids and animals running wild? Maybe you’re concerned about using wood in a family space because of all the activity? We have a solution!

Attic by Grazzini is a porcelain tile that simulates the wood look. I swear, it fooled me the first time I saw it! Now you can have that wood look with tile’s easy cleaning. So lay down the Black Rett Grazzini tile and consider a decorative border using stone and/or glass tile accents by Jeffrey Court or mosaics by Stone & Pewter Accents.

Jeffrey Court serves up two glass and stone choices– a Pietra Opal 1 ½  X 1 ½  square Fire & Ice in Quartz and glass a random 1 ½ ” x 1 ½  ” and 1 ½ ” x 5 ½ ” mix of Brick shapes Fire & Ice in Quartz. Both of these offerings come on mesh-backed sheets approximately 11” square. Stone & Pewter Accents gives you 3 different choices of glass mosaics. Check out the marbleized 1” x 1” squares in ivory silk, the Hasen 1” x 3” glass in argent or the Sumie Hida 1” x 2” in silk.

For that extra warmth in your cozy family room, consider a heated floor under a sisal area rug from Fiberworks Studio Key Rug Collection in silvered gray!

Add an interesting texture to your walls using Candice Olson’s Collective I grass cloth-look with just a slight hint of metallic in a beautiful neutral greige (gray/taupe mix).

For upholstery options, Perennials’ Pygmy Stripe in basalt and Old World Weavers’ Interlochen in Chocolate Chip tie everything together for a polished, comfortable family room that can stand up to the traffic.
