After brainstorming about potential new looks, sourcing new materials that would work well with our existing art and furnishings and ensuring a cohesive, unique vibe for each office, we\u2019re excited to share with you not only the end result, but some tips for doing this yourself if you\u2019re interested in giving it a try!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26256\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-west-los-angeles-pillows-and-decor.jpg\" alt=\"Hughes Marino Seattle\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-west-los-angeles-pillows-and-decor.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-west-los-angeles-pillows-and-decor-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-west-los-angeles-pillows-and-decor-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Embrace the Power of Slipcovers &amp; Pillow Shams<\/h3>\n<p>We have always loved our plush, comfy couches, so instead of the unnecessary investment of purchasing all new furniture, we simply bought new slipcovers for our existing couches and recovered a few of our upholstered pieces with new fabrics. By covering our couches with new vibrant, jewel toned velvet slipcovers, the vibes of our living rooms were instantly updated and dramatically transformed! We also added new pillows and shams to complement our revitalized looks, while adding an extra layer of welcoming comfort for our visitors. Colorful new fabrics alone were a key element to the transformation of our living rooms, and an easy way for any business to refresh their space!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26255\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"Hughes Marino Seattle\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-kitchen.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-kitchen-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-kitchen-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Illuminate with New Light Fixtures<\/h3>\n<p>We love incorporating unique lighting\u2060\u2014like neon signage, chandeliers, sconces and spotlights\u2060\u2014into our spaces wherever possible! By swapping out our glittering glass-beaded chandeliers over our family farm table at our headquarters with bold, brass fixtures, we were able to transform the feel of our headquarters, cultivating a more regal look that is unique to our San Diego office. In our other offices, we replaced older light fixtures with more modern designs from Circa Lighting, Lambert and Fils, Kate Spade and Rejuvenation, giving the spaces an immediate update. What\u2019s great about changing out existing lights is that you can spend your budget on new fixtures themselves, and don\u2019t need to spend extra dollars on wiring when it is already in place.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26248\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-san-diego-book-art-installation.jpg\" alt=\"Hughes Marino Seattle\" width=\"775\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-san-diego-book-art-installation.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-san-diego-book-art-installation-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-san-diego-book-art-installation-768x595.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Incorporate a Focal Point of Bright, Inspiring Books<\/h3>\n<p>Fun coffee table books have always been a signature element of our d\u00e9cor throughout our offices. When we set out to revitalize the built-in bookshelves at our headquarters, I saw it as a perfect opportunity to inject vibrant pops of color that incorporate the beautiful rainbow of elements from our surrounding art pieces, and also double as a library jam-packed with fun and inspiration for our team!<\/p>\n<p>The end result was a colorfully pleasing new focal point, displaying hundreds of hardcover books and fun knick-knacks. Our new library is home to a variety of topics, from travel books on Iceland, Greece and Tuscany, to hobby books on electric guitars, floral and interior design, to even the most whimsical topics: Harry Potter, impressionist art and the power of sprinkles! This is definitely one of the most achievable refresh projects for any office, which can be based on color or book topic!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26254\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-living-room.jpg\" alt=\"Hughes Marino Seattle\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-living-room.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-living-room-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-orange-county-living-room-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s bringing together the bright blue and emerald green velvet couches in our <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/about-us\/orange-county-office\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Orange County office<\/a>, or complementing the soft pink, creams and muted gray in our Downtown San Francisco office, using books to play off of and unite fabric choices and art is an easy and affordable design tip that anyone can employ.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26253\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-barbie-art-collection.jpg\" alt=\"Hughes Marino Seattle\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-barbie-art-collection.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-barbie-art-collection-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/hughes-marino-barbie-art-collection-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Spark Imagination with Bold &amp; Fun Art<\/h3>\n<p>We make a point to have fun eye-catching art on display in every office, and we are always looking to add more to our collections.
