As promised in my recent blog Staging an Eichler-Designed Home in Marin - Before and After Photos - Part 1, I'm including additional before and after photos of this Upper Lucas Valley home in San Rafael, California designed by prominent architect Joseph Eichler.
The original post featured before and after pictures of rooms surrunding the central open-air Atrium of the mid-century modern Eichler home. This post shows before and after photos of the four bedrooms in the house, as staged by Leslie Olson Interiors of Marin County.
Before staging, the vacant Master Bedroom hinted at possibilities, with outdoor space beckoning. But unfurnished, prospective homebuyers would quickly sum up the empty room and move on.
Muted plum and coral tones of the bedding compliment the stone wall and pristine hills beyond, viewed from the floor-to-ceiling windows. By drawing the eye outside, the space is visually enlarged.
Additional accessories inside and out compliment the Master Bedroom. leading to the Patio, and Office.
Before, the Master Bath seemed unexceptional.
After staging, the Master Bath harmonizes with the Master Bedroom. Natural light from the skylight illuminates the space.
Additional bedrooms staged in this four bedroom home now compliment the architecture, and emphasize the indoor-outdoor spaces. Before staging, Bedroom #2 had an open view to the open-air Atrium, but while vacant had no warmth or personality of its own.
Staging transformed the room into a serene Guest Bedroom, enhanced by the Atrium view.
Vacant Bedroom #3 showed potential with natural light, but wasn't inviting to future homebuyers.
The newly-staged "Girl's Room," as the original homeowner referred to it, now shows its own personality.
Finally, Vacant Bedroom #4 looked tired, indeed.
Spunky modern bedding, lighting and accessories enliven this now contemporary bedroom.
