Oliver and Mirjana met while playing basketball in college. Many games (and many years) later, they found themselves married, with two kids, in a suburban town house. The house was brand-new when they bought it, and instead of going for any upgrades, they decided to stick with the builder’s finishes. But after living there for eight years, they started to get tired of their beige surroundings — particularly the living room. The room was boring and bland, and didn’t have enough functional space for entertaining friends and family (not to mention the whole gang after shooting hoops).

Longing for a vibrant, warm and multifunctional living/family room, they called me in to see if I could get them back in the game, and take a shot at turning their ordinary space into something extraordinary.
