This historic living room redo shows off the room’s best features.

There are countless shades of pink.

“I love the green and pink color palette,” the homeowner says on Instagram. “In fact, I’d it picked out loooong before we ever got the keys to this house.”

“It’s a real showstopping space,” the homeowner says of the “after.”

Little touches like the wood slats, swirly marbles, and the steam feature in the shower were inspired by Scandinavian spas.

The new shower is ahh-inspiring.

“It's so much brighter and more spacious,” the homeowner says of the “after.”

The beautiful exposed brick stays!

This gut renovation is bold, but still era-appropriate.
