Welcome to Brunswick East House, an inner-city home that has been completely refreshed through furniture styling and selections. The homeowners engaged interior design studio, Furnishd, to completely transform their newly purchased residence into a home where modern additions fuse with timeless details. With a short time frame but plenty of inspiration, Furnishd curated a chic space filled with texture and mid-century modern influences. Come with us as we dive into the details that formed together to create Brunswick East House.

The brief from the clients was to add furniture that complemented the existing finishes. The home already held a beautiful base of cool neutrals, soft arches, and unique details, but if you’ve ever undertaken any interior design project, then you’d know it’s sometimes easier to start from scratch. Combining this challenge with the client’s quick settlement, strategic planning, and punctual timeframes was a must. 

Even upon first glance at Brunswick East House, it’s evident that even in this position, Furnishd completely achieved a visually impactful, functional home with plenty of mid-century inspiration.

Each piece of furniture and decor plays a role in enhancing the narrative of the story being told through the interiors at Brunswick East House. Take the curved, contemporary forms of the sofa, for example. Anchoring the room, its shape and material create depth and comfort, providing soft visual interest, while acting as a juxtaposition to the raw brick feature wall located behind. The muted tone of the sofa also adds an element of balance to the organic palette of the surrounding furniture and decor. Each piece, whether it’s a furnishing, finish, or fixture, works together to complement and elevate the room.

This trend continues throughout the home in every nook. Soft mixes with strong, light blends with dark, and modern additions fuse with timeless details, like the classic ceiling cornice combined with minimalist pendant lights. Its intricate characteristics, such as these, give Brunswick East House subtle interest, making it oh-so-captivating. With the client's love of mid-century modern interiors, elements of this popular style were incorporated to add further character and personality to the home. The style is known for its iconic blend of simple functionality and balanced modern nostalgic aesthetics, making it an absolutely perfect fit for a home like Brunswick East House.

This project truly is a complete marvel, which is no surprise considering how talented the entire team at Furnishd is. Founded in 2021 by Connie and Wayne, the interior design studio has already been nominated for an impressive range of awards. Their unique approach to interior design not only provides their clientele with an efficient service, but a home perfectly curated to their needs and lifestyle, like Brunswick East House.
