Refreshing Group Spaces for Chi Omega - MSU
At Alcove Interiors, we believe that every space can be transformed into something beautiful and functional. Our recent project at the Chi Omega house at Michigan State University is a testament to our dedication to creating elegant interiors for everyday living (even the busy everyday lives of college students!). Join us as we take you through the journey of revamping the common living spaces of this sorority house into spaces that foster community, comfort, and style.
A Sorority House in Need of a Refresh: The Chi Omega house at Michigan State University is not just a place to live; it's a home away from home for its residents. When the house corporation board president reached out to us, she expressed her desire to create living spaces that reflect the sorority's values of friendship, sisterhood, and personal growth. Our designer, Alyssa, is a Chi Omega graduate herself, and jumped at the chance to help refresh spaces for the sisterhood!
Personalized Design for a Unique Sorority: At Alcove Interiors, we understand that each project is unique, just like our clients. For the Chi Omega project, we began by working closely with the House Corporation Board to learn about how the spaces in the house are used, what the women appreciate in their house, as well as the types of style and decoration they wanted to see in the formal as well as casual spaces. This personalized approach allowed us to create a design that resonated with the sorority's identity.
Elegant and Functional Design: Our design for the Chi Omega house aimed to strike a balance between elegance and functionality. We carefully selected furnishings, fabrics, and decor that not only looked stunning but also stood up to the rigors of communal living. The common spaces now feature a blend of comfortable seating upholstered in performance fabrics, specially selected fabrics in the organization’s brand colors, and clever decorations that are both youthful and elegant.
Creating a Sense of Community: One of the primary goals was to create spaces that encouraged interaction and bonding among the sorority members. We achieved this by designing cozy nooks for study sessions, a welcoming lounge for relaxation and socializing, and a uniquely furnished media room with custom sectional to seat 12!
Quality, Affordability, and Ease: At Alcove Interiors, we value quality without compromising on affordability. We understand that a sorority house project has budget constraints, and we made sure to provide cost-effective solutions without sacrificing the overall design aesthetics. Our designer and the Board President worked together in our digital design studio to agree on furniture selections efficiently and collaboratively. We were able to save the Housing Board hours of time and project management tasks by handling all of the orders, logistics, and installation.
The Result: A Home to Cherish: The transformation of the Chi Omega house common living spaces has been nothing short of remarkable. The members now have a home that they can take pride in, a space where they can create lasting memories, and a haven that truly reflects their values and personalities.
