We staged this beautiful Pasadena luxury home this week. I had gone to see this home approximately 3 weeks ago and had done a home staging estimate for the builder/home owner and listing agent.The owner decided that he wanted to put the home on the market without staging "to test the waters". After 2 weeks of a "lukewarm" reception, he agreed to have the home staged by Pasadena's finest home staging company, Moving Mountains Design.
Upon viewing this home I recognized that the rooms were A) HUGE and B)undefined. I've staged hundreds of homes, and it was hard for me to figure out how to place the furniture in this house to bring the living spaces into focus - I can only imagine what home buyers thought when they saw the house empty.

The dining room was so large, I put 2 dining tables together to make a large sqare table, which worked quite well.

Since the walls of the entry were curved, I hung a French tapestry on the wall to accentuate the curve. The round rug also highlights this feature.

I didn't measure it because I didn't have a 100' measuring tape with me, but I think this room was 60' or more from end to end. I broke up the large expanse with area rugs (the one in the foreground is 10'x14') which helps define the space.


This luxury Pasadena new construction home has 5 bedrooms, including a downstairs 2nd master bedroom, and 7 bathrooms.
The home sits on a huge lot. There is room for a tennis or sports court.
