Lara & Chris: Their Style

It’s important that our home is a reflection of our personalities. We’re not shy about using color and love to experiment with patterns and textures throughout the house. We gravitate toward an Eastern-inspired aesthetic because of its elegance, simplicity, and ability to fuse with modern styles.

How would you describe your style?
Eastern-inspired contemporary.

What’s your favorite room in your home and why?
The living room is our favorite room because it's where we spend the most time relaxing and entertaining. Guests who sit on our pillow-laden daybed sofa rarely want to get up because it's so comfortable.

Did the two of you decorate your home together, or was it mostly one person -- if so, who?
Lara comes up with most of the ideas since she’s a graphic designer, and Chris helps execute them.

What are your favorite places to shop for home furnishings and accents?
We like to shop at West Elm, Target, IKEA, and outlet stores. Many of our home accessories are inherited from our families, accumulated from our travels, or created by us. We like to use accents and artwork that have a personal meaning or history rather than purchasing items just for the sake of being purely decorative.
