We welcome New York designer, David Frazier, known for his warm modernist interiors and place-based architecture. Originally from West Point, Georgia, David attended Auburn School of Architecture before moving to New York, where he designed spaces for his clients in New York, the Hamptons, Connecticut, Colorado, and throughout the South. David shares some great advice for using neutrals in a way that suits your aesthetic and design dreams. He talks about why he gravitates towards neutrals, some of his favorite shades to use to warm up a room, and how to give neutrals the same energy as colors and patterns.

Decorating Dilemma:
Hi Caitlyn! So, David likes the idea of just using one sofa. He would probably eliminate the apartment sofa. Great floor lamps on the table would serve as a great anchor between the sofa and two chairs. Then, he would do a club chair and an ottoman in the opposite corner. Ideally, the sofa would be about the length of that picture window, with the back of the sofa about the height of the windowsill.
You know we love playing with scale too, so you could use both online tools and move the furniture around to see how you like it and how it feels in the space. Best of luck and keep us updated!
