DESIGNER NOTES
Before purchasing, confirm all furniture dimensions, clearances, and access points to ensure each piece works comfortably within your space.
WALL TREATMENT
Milano Flat is about creating a sophisticated, architectural backdrop. Choose one of the recommended paint colors in a matte or flat finish for a clean, tailored look. For greater impact, introduce one of the recommended wallcoverings as a feature wall or carry it onto the ceiling for an unexpected designer moment. Keep the remaining walls understated so the pattern and furnishings remain the focus.
FURNITURE PLACEMENT
Arrange the furniture to feel intentional and conversational rather than simply following the perimeter of the room. Allow statement pieces to have breathing room and maintain comfortable pathways throughout the space. The goal is a room that feels curated, sophisticated, and effortlessly composed.
RUG SCALE
Use the rug to define and anchor the primary furniture arrangement. Ideally, the front legs of the main seating pieces should sit on the rug to visually connect the entire composition.
LIGHTING
Treat statement lighting as part of the architecture of the room. Center the chandelier over the primary furniture arrangement rather than simply centering it within the room. Layer additional lighting to create warmth and highlight art, texture, and sculptural details.
ART + ACCESSORIES
Keep accessories edited and intentional. Milano Flat should feel more like a beautifully curated Milan apartment than a heavily decorated room. Mix art, sculptural objects, books, and decorative accents while leaving enough negative space for individual pieces to make an impact.
DESIGNER TIP
Think tailored with a twist. Start with a refined neutral foundation, then introduce contrast through pattern, sculptural forms, art, and unexpected materials. Not every element needs to match—the tension between classic sophistication and modern statement pieces is what gives Milano Flat its personality.
BEFORE YOU ORDER
Measure doorways, elevators, stairways, hallways, and room dimensions before purchasing larger pieces. Always review individual retailer specifications, lead times, delivery requirements, and return policies before placing your order.
