8991 Kim Room With Big Plant

The living room prior to Kim’s redesign on her HGTV show Myles of Syle.

“Now, I love a plasma, but when everything is focused around it and that’s to the detriment of all other kind of uses for the room like determining whether it’s conversational or entertaining, then it doesn’t work,” Myles says on mistakes people often make.

9031 Kim And Womastanding Behind Lots Of Pictures

Kim discusses accessories with Marina, to include in the new living room.

9051 Kim Myles The New Living Room

The revamped living room smolders with color and pizazz.

“I’m really fearless about color because it’s only temporary. If you don’t like it invite your girls over, get a bottle of wine and repaint it,” Kim Myles says.

9072 Kim Making Green Seat

Kim enjoys mixing textures and colors and has always been fascinated by design.

“When I was 12, I remember rearranging my bedroom for the first time,” she says. “I had Monet postcards and construction paper and I made the construction paper mounting board and I put the postcards on it and hung it.”

9082 Kim Myles New Living Room With Blue Pillows

Large stripes on the ceiling give the room a funky twist, paired with soft lighting.

“You have to have a couple of different layers of light in your space,” she says. “I like candlelight and soft light and ambient light like club light. But that’s not great when I want to read a book so I make sure that I have the lamp that I can put on that’s for tasks.”

9091 Kim Myles Fixes Candle Holders

Kim completes the finishing touches with sterling candle holders.
