The shelving somehow makes the room look bigger! The dining room looked great before and I'm way too scared to do a color that dark, but wow it looks amazing!

Hey Jenny! Go for the dark color! Dark cool toned colors receded from the eye so they make walls feel "pushed back" some what! :)

Absolutely love the color choice, you did such an amazing job. I would stain the table and chairs the same as the desk top you can always add cushions to them to give pops of color.

👀Clicked on video bcos the dark wall caught my eye. 😉Find black cabinetry to be quite handsome, but fear it could be too imposing. ⚓The Navy is beautiful, esp. w/those brass sconces, hardware & naturally stained desktop bridge. Brilliant merchandising w/combo of those lighter & more natural elements. Like the "good day" signage that brings in black element too. 💚 Your idea of staining the table to match sideboard/ desk seems highly appealing. Like the notion of 2 long benches stained to match. Not a fan of lopsided table w/chairs on one side only. Maybe introduce a striking, but simple centerpiece? My preference would something in black that spans more width of table surface. Something that will make the table a destination in & of itself. Maybe a long iron/metal candle holder; a long slim oval or rectangular shaped tray featuring a trio of potted succulents (1 bigger pot, flanked by 2 smaller ones in a row); Or, an ebony stained chunk of wood w/holes cut in for tealights. 👍Do like idea of two black end chairs in the above configuration. Maybe the other two chairs of set flanking some sideboard that they can "borrow" back for dining area when needed. If they wanted more formal dining, they could always temporarily slide one bench under desk bridge/sideboard & the other against the entry wall. The latter could be left plain or dressed like a console table. 🤔Personally, I need more navy (or blue) in that room. Maybe the back of the front door. As well as navy painted frame of wall art or mirror on entry wall (opposite the built-in). Something to help balance that major visual color weight. And, make it seem more cohesive & deliberate. Maybe a small trio* of navy (or indigo blue & white) decor items on that white cabinet. Something to help eye draw my eye around with that intense blue color. That's just my take. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

OBSESSED with this! Especially because the blues and greys in your rug compliment the wall and make it super cohesive! For me, I would have probably changed out the rug to something really bright or a muted light blue bohemian printed style rug, painted the chairs white, and added some padded seat cushions in either the deep blue accent wall color or a black to ground the space but keep the floor look bright. Just a thought! But i absolutely love the way this room turned out, whew so much work for so much payoff!

I love fiddles! They need bright indirect light and a well draining soil. I have 18 currently and all thriving! 😄

Carissa is really out here living all of our dream.. getting sponsored by HOME FREAKING DEPOT!

All I can say is “Wow”. Amazing job. Love the color.

i'm new to plants but this is what i have learned from my own fiddle leaf fig: water it whenever the soil becomes dry, they love humid environments, and keep it within natural light but not too close to a window!! hope this helps!

This looks fantastic! I’m so impressed by all the upgrades you’ve made, very inspiring! 😊

Oh my gosh, such an inspiration!!!! I just did a craft wall with two inexpensive cabinets from Lowe's with wood from a previous bench I had made.. spent about $170.00 for an almost look-alike project, but now I want one in my dining room too. I love built-ins!!!!

the navy blue looks amazing, what a great transformation

You got yourself a very healthy looking fiddle leaf fig! Beware they can be divas as they don't like change but once you get them in a good spot and you know how to water correctly, they're pretty easy! Best tips: 1. They like really bright, indirect light. I keep mine a few feet in front of a south west facing window and it has been doing really well there. 2. Make sure it is potted in a pot WITH DRAINAGE holes and well draining soil. Without good drainage and if you water too often, FLFs can get root rot. 3. Let the top couple of inches of soil dry out before watering and then water until the water comes out of the bottom. Try to find a somewhat regular watering schedule that works for your conditions and then stick to it as FLFs can get edema in their leaves with inconsistent watering. 4. Gently wipe down the leaves every once in a while as they can get dusty, which can block the light from directly hitting the leaves. 5. Make sure you keep it away from any vents as they don't like drafts. 6. Only repot and/or move locations when necessary as, like I said, they don't do well with change and can throw a fit by dropping a bunch of leaves :( A lot of people will talk about humidity but personally I don't live in a humid climate and I do anything to increase humidity and my FLF has been going pretty well!

Oh my gosh!!! It looks sooo beautiful!! I am loving the dark accent wall, love how modern it looks.

It’s looks so good, girl! Love the color and contrast and the gold/brass accents. Love it!

Beautiful!! I love the dark navy accent wall/work center/sideboard (yay for multi purpose spaces!) with the white accents and white walls, it is crisp and elegant! Great job!

Love it!! I think it makes the rug flow so much better than ever before. I was never a fan of it until now but it’s now a good pop on the floor! Definitely get more modern chairs! You should think about paint the window frames black too!

The dark color was a great choice! Especially with the rest of the room being white. It turned out amazing!

I'm OBSESSED with this!!! I love the dark wall/interiors trend, I think it looks so nice. I wanna do a dark teal wall in our dining room because there's a lot of natural light in there so I'm hoping it won't look too dark and dungeon-y

Absolutely love this office/dining room make over. Also a fan of Drew on Lone Fox, but love the dark blue with the lights on yours I think just that bit more than his black.🤩

For the fiddle leaf fig, bright light, away from air vents, and drying out between watering though it does like for the soil to be a bit moist. (Water when the top 2” or so of soil are dry, I HIGHLY recommend a moisture meter.) Rotate it periodically so the plant grows even.

I have loved everything you have done with your house. You are so talented.

The value of your home will skyrocket with all these amazing updates!! You’ll make a pretty penny when you decide to sell your home! 👏👏👏 AMAZING JOB! Looks SO good!! And the Navy, wow!

Awesome job!! I love the teamwork you guys got going!! Creating a home that fits your lifestyle!! I love watching your channel, it’s like you are my cousin that lets me watch how to make a home better and more functional. I like the fact you even tell me the things like what you should have done different or another way to save time!! I think that’s why I love your channel bc it’s not scripted, you show the hiccups or bumps you come across, then best way to adjust to the situation!! Bravo 👏🏻 I think y’all are a powerful duo with great things ahead!! Thanks for teaching me how to create my home to fit my lifestyle!!!

Looks so good! I want to do something like this across from our kitchen to add more storage. Now just to actually tackle that!

Anyone re-watching the video cos it's beautiful

Absolutely love the space. You and Nick are really talented people.

The dark navy is beautiful and the soft white works really well with it. I think the brass lamps and hardware look really modern against the dark paint!

I always watch your videos from beginning to end, with no skips!! Just because I don’t want to miss out on anything!! This came out so nice!

Phenomenal Transformation! The sconces are so sleek. Definitely added so much to the overall look.

Love the color!! Everything looks so high end and beautiful now!! 💗

We did the same look but a bit bigger in my husbands office .. you both did an amazing job..

The darker color is definitely the good choice. White would not do it justice. Great video & tips.

Really beautiful Carissa! The fun thing about decorating is you can mix, match, and change at whim so just have fun!

I love the deep color pop. It really plays off the delicate white beautifully. And the room is definitely big enough to handle being more than just a dining room. If I were you, I’d paint the chairs that same navy. I think it would be really pretty against the natural wood table. Teamwork makes the dream work. Good job Nunez’s!

The built in came out GREAT! You guys did such a great job! Really cool color too! 😊

I'm equal parts impressed and unnerved by the lack of drop cloths and painter's tape (but I am not a skilled painter lol)

My dream room would be that blue and yellow😍

It looks amazing! Even though it's a lot of dark color, the room looks bigger & brighter!

Aw from one design master to another :) The room looks gorgeous and so much brighter!

Not surprised it turned out amazing. So classy!

Love the dark accent wall! Wouldn't change it period! House is looking great!

My favorite one to watch so far! I love the color too - it’s a statement piece!

I'm loving this! I've been searching for functional ideas for my formal dining room. My husband and I need to make this happen. Thank you so much for the inspiration 💗

Omg I luv it love the colors the decor everything amazing job

I love navy blue. This is exactly what I have been wanting to do in my front room as I will be working from home soon. I also want to do something similar in my dining room as well. Thank you so much for the inspiration and for sharing the links. Beautiful job!

I love love this makeover! The navy blue looks so cool & bold. Personally, I would have gone with either white or a dark peppercorn color. But the blue is really fun & gives your space so much character.

I love this makeover😍 Its turned out so beautiful! The use for this wall is the same but now it looks so expensiv and clean- like a bar of a hotel or a build in shelf behind the reception desk! Love from Germany 😊❤

Oh my, gorgeous...love the navy wall!

Great job!! I LOVE the blue!! I’m in the process of turning a downstairs bedroom into an office & this blue is giving me all the feels😍. We’ve gone back & forth with the built in option so I appreciate your “mistakes”/ input on the Ikea option.

I love this so much! I love dark colors like that!!❤ I'm repainting my kitchen cabinets and I'm doing a dark gray on the bottom and white on the top, so hopefully it looks good

Love the dark blue/black color

Seriously wish me and my partner where half as craft and DIY'ee as you two... I have all the ideas but no clue how to do it 😂😂😂 LOVE IT WELL DONE!!

It’s just ikea furniture, anyone can assemble it and paint it.

I love the trim to make it look like a built in!

Very nice!💗💗🖌💗💗 Just bought a 1920 house and remodeling it. So much fun yet so much work. 1 room, (wall ,or taking out the wall) at a time.

Building all of these shelving units yourself with 1/2” plywood and some trim boards is definitely the way to go on a project like this. I’m just now getting into the home diy woodworking thing but attempting to put together individual pieces of furniture to create what looks like built in shelving just seems like more trouble than it’s worth. With a few sheets of plywood and some trim, you can easily cut everything to specific dimensions, eliminating the need to make pre-made units fit into non-standard spaces. You guys did a great job either way and it looks fantastic but I would definitely agree that all of that time and money spent at ikea would have been better spent building something that would fit perfectly the first time. My wife and I just bought our first house and this type of project is probably going to be the first big thing I decide to tackle. I think we’d have fun doing it. Plus, it’s a great excuse to buy new tools, which is always a plus.

Looks fantastic. I love the impact of the dark colour. I actually preferred the more towards charcoal colour you had on the wall previously. However it stands out in a beautiful way with the white walls and light accents

We love Lone Fox inspo! Love this makeover, so good!

Love the color choices and the idea of making the dining room multipurpose. I'd paint the chairs to match the bookcases or do them white and have seat cushions that match the navy. But I'd keep the table the lighter wood color so it avoids the matchy-matcy look. And yes, using the desk area as a buffet is a great idea that never occured to me. Love Lone Fox, too and this wonderful makeover !! Thanks for sharing

PPG is perfect not only for walls, furniture etc. but we also use them at my work for painting aircrafts and it's parts! 😊

I absolutely love the dark navy blue!! We bought our house back in September and I am so ready to make it our own. We love doing DIY projects. I will definitely be coming back to your channel once we start renovations!!

Dark gray black wall with sherwin Williams zany pink cabinets!! Can't wait to try this

It turned out beautiful!! I love the dark color against the white.

I agree everyone at Home depot are so nice. Plus the live and you learn part is the best part! It furthers your knowledge when coming to DIY home improvement. In the 3 years we have lived in our fixer upper I have learned countless things and a lot of them I would do different now! But to me that is the fun in it!

I love this!! I would’ve gone black! Not because I don’t love the navy, I just love black cabinetry!

First place the pieces and the trim the last, as will help you to hide the differences. Love the dark but had it before and its a nightmare for the dust you can see every bit. Light gray is my new friend

Absolutely love the colour of the built in would love that in my house

So beautiful, Carissa! I love how bold the accent wall is now! 😍

💗💗💗 the built ins... i have not always been a fan of them but it looks amazing in your space and now you have a dedicated space for work and it will be light and airy. I love ❤️ the Navy!!!! I’m painting my accent wall in my living room to break up all the white in my house! Final thought... Stunning 🤩. Spot on the design and decor

This looked like alot of hard work! I love that you can use the impact just as expertly as your husband. It turned out gorgeous, and the navy is one of my favorites in this project!

LOVE the color! Turned out BEAUTIFUL!

I love it. Such a beautiful outcome. Great choice on the color.

Love the dark colour! The whole look is amazing 😍 Can’t wait to see more DIYS

This is great and the result looks fantastic! I've been playing with color ideas and built ins so really learned a lot with your paint pick and appreciate you saying it would've been easier to build custom cabs/shelves yourself. I was wondering about that too. Thanks!

Love love love the blue!!

Looks great! Even though the color is dark and saturated, the room looks so much brighter.

You did a great job. I agree on the shelving, about making your own, less adjusting for a better fit but I liked the color choice. Go bold its my motto.

Why is painting so satisfying to watch? This turned out great. 😍

So beautiful! Love it!!

Those light fixtures!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Absolutely beautiful!

I absolutely adore this makeover!!! Would love to see you tackle the brick/garage part on the outside of your home. A whitewash and black garage door would be really striking!

I LOVEEEEEE the navy blue! Great color choice 🙌🏼

always a delight to see your ingenuity and vision....you are sooooo talented

i love the dark color!!

I love the colors. Great job.

Beautiful. Just beautiful.💗

Love the dark navy color. And the white on the walls looks so nice and crisp! I like the “distressed look“ on the chairs. Maybe just clean them up a bit and sand off down to the wood. And they will kind of tie in to your desktop. Brilliant job!

It turned out amazing, i love your honesty on the process and the shelf decorations, I dont know how to decorate shelves, but yours turned out beautiful, and the builtins made the room look so much bigger. For your dining chair, i think just repaint them with the same.color, they look nice, you can make little cushions for them, other than that, no need to buy new chairs, their designs looks beautiful in the space already

Love the dark blue❤

Like the dark color! That wall unit looks great & love the lights and hardware

Absolutely perfect! Loved it!

It looks amazing!

Using painter's tape to map out the size is a GREAT idea. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful

I love it!!

You and your husband are so talented! What a great team you guys make! I absolutely love the color choice. I would probably stain the dining table and/or chairs the same as your table, and add a small piece of wall art in between the lights to balance the dark blue with the rest of the room. I always have a ideas but I have no clue how to execute. Excellent job!!
