Previous Sheffield Room of the Month Articles


Every issue of Sheffield's Designer Monthly features a Room of the Month where we analyze an interior using a simple Three-Step Method.

  • Luxury Bath
    There’s nothing like the solace of slipping into a steaming tub at the end of a long wintry day. Even though living rooms, libraries, bedrooms can be relaxing and soothing, for the person who savors a watery respite from the world, the luxury bath beats them all.
  • Kara's Nursery
    Creating a nursery for a new baby can be one of the greatest challenges for a designer. You have to consider the usual challenges of decorating a room: function, mood, and harmony, but you also have to take into account the quickly changing needs of Baby, the safety needs of Baby, and the sitting-down-for-a-minute needs of Mom or Dad.
  • Elegant Relaxing Bathroom
    The bath is the room in the house used by everyone, in which we prepare to meet the day each morning and in which we close down for the night each evening. And yet, all too often it's given short shrift when considering a home's makeover, unless the owner is thinking of selling.
  • Luxury Kitchen
    While the basic function of a kitchen is the same for everyone 3 providing a place to prepare food — the particulars differ enormously depending on the family or individual who lives in the home. Here, we see a kitchen that serves the purpose of food preparation at a nearly-professional level.
  • Double Sofa Living Room
    For this Room of the Month, we're looking at two different takes on essentially the same design, to illustrate not only how to use the Sheffield Guidelines to Interior Design — function, mood, and harmony — but also to show how the same furniture can have a different effect when put into a new arrangement.
  • Tiny Office Space
    We've chosen this home office space for our Room of the Month to illustrate just how much big use you can get out of a small space, if you pay attention to the Sheffield Guidelines to Interior Design: function, mood, and harmony.
  • Summertime Porch
    Ah, summer. In the Northeast, summer is the time for slowing down and enjoying the cooling breezes that come through the leafy trees, chatting with friends and family or settling into the good books you never seem to find time for in the hectic fall, winter, and spring..
  • Blonde Wood Kitchen
    This month, we've chosen to analyze the decor of a bright kitchen design that's all decked out in blonde wood.
  • Safari Bedroom
    The room we've chosen for this month illustrates perfectly the principle that eclectic decorating ideas can indeed all work together to create a beautiful and powerful effect. The trick is in choosing the right design elements, not necessarily in choosing elements that are created with just one palette in mind.
