Birds of a Feather- What Birds Can Teach Us About Designing the Perfect Room.

Previously, I showed you how flat lays give a bird’s eye view of a lot of magic possibilities about to unfold before you.

A flat lay creates endless possibilities for creating a perfect space.

I showed you three flat lays inspired by bird feathers and asked what room you visualized each could become.

I created some magic with the first design and wanted to share that possibility with you.

This flat lay and design was inspired by the beauty of Pintail duck and eagle feathers. Birds provide endless inspiration for creating beautiful designs with the intricate patterns, colors, and textures of their feathers! Who else but Mother Nature could come up with such great designs.

This flat lay showed initial ideas for flooring, tile, carpeting, fabrics, and more that I thought looked beautiful and created a feeling or mood for a room. I wanted the room to feel peaceful, earthy, spiritual and a little exotic, as if you were relaxing on the forest floor in an old-growth forest where it was totally quiet except for bird calls.

I decided to create a living room with the idea. I tried using the two shades of green for paint colors to see how it would change the look and feel of the room. I think the darker green evokes more of a feeling of the forest. Which do you prefer?

Here is the final design. Does this look like any of the possibilities you imagined from the flat lay?

Here are the actual products I used, or something similar, for the design. Some contain affiliate links, meaning I may make a small commission for sharing them with you at no additional cost to you.

I like the darker green walls too, and anything bird-related is always a YES in my book 🙂

Thank you! Well, there are 2 more bird-related designs to go with the other 2 bird-related flat lays coming your way soon!

I love the way you showed how a flat lay can translate into a room. I always enjoy a bird theme.
