The inspiration for the Vivir Design collective’s My Rowe Design space stemmed from their deep love of historic buildings. “Every space has a story to tell,” the Vivir designers explain, “and part of that story is written by the memories that are made in it.” Their My Rowe Design explores a pastiche of styles from days gone by, skillfully blending them into a curated space that suits the modern aesthetic. The graceful curves and antique appeal of a velvet Brooke Chaise stand in vibrant contrast to the modern industrial side table that accompanies it. Likewise, the clean lines of our Indira Cocktail Table and Capri End Table add a contemporary note that feels refreshing against the backdrop of an oversized, classical art-themed wall mural. The overall theme? Maximalism, but make it modern.

Along with cozy textiles, an extra-large sofa makes comfort a priority in this sitting area. “Our favorite piece is definitely the beautiful Madeline Sofa,” say the Vivir designers. Rich cocoa velvet accentuates the sleek lines of this transitional piece, a soft yet sophisticated choice for this elegant space. With an eye towards timeless style, the Vivir Design team has created a place that evokes memories of the past as well as future possibilities.
