Dallas condo for sale...check out the slide show!

I staged the second level of a condo in Dallas last week on Holland Avenue. The condo has two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms and an abundance of natural light.

The white walls and wood floors with distinctive grain pattern and black coloring inspired my choice of furnishings. I chose a crisp, white slipcovered sofa and matching chair for the living area. Then I brought in a shaggy wool area rug that has great texture but does not compete with the distinctive pattern of the wood floor. Accents of green and yellow are fresh colors for the season. Check out the lamps. They have a sculpted wooden look...so earthy yet contemporary with their oval shades (I want some for my house!).

The dining set is sleek and masculine with leather chairs that boast clean lines and nice detail with the round, covered buttons. I chose a standing floor mirror because the owner had just painted the condo and didn't want too many holes in the walls. The mirror reflects light and I like the thick, wide frame which again is contemporary and minimal in style.

For the kitchen, I chose a wood cook book stand, glass jars with dry beans and peas, white pottery and a vase of palm leaves; simple and textural.

And last but not least, the area close to the huge window turned out to be the perfect spot for a desk. Everyone needs an office these days, so it made sense to add the desk along with another earthy, sculptural lamp.

To tour the condo contact Jean Bryant with Keller Williams at 972-672-4399.

Okay, the best part is the slide show, so here it is...
