Do you get easily tired of your surroundings, and find yourself up in the middle of the night rearranging furniture and swapping out decor? You might have found a kindred spirit in Orlando Soria, West Coast Creative Director for Homepolish, and the owner of the dining room above. When things get old and tired, he’s not afraid to mix things up and make them fresh and new again.

Although he kept the overall wall color gray, Orlando lightened things up by painting the bookshelves white, adding the circular graphic to the wall, and restyling the room with less bulky items. The newly yellow chairs make everything that much more cheerful. The dining room is ready to go again — at least for another couple of months, or until Orlando sees fit to switch it up the next time…

If you want to see more about this project, or of Orlando’s other design work, head over to Homepolish.

Many thanks Orlando!
