Everyone tries to stay on budget during a remodel, and sometimes one splurge is all it takes for results that look luxe. This week the Remodelista editors five interior design ideas to add a touch of glamour:
Persian Carpet

Handmade antique Persian rugs feel fresh again. See this week’s House Tour , ‘Mamma Mia’ Music Producer Nick Gilpin’s Stylishly Revived Georgian Manse , for more.
Coveted Couch

Goddard Sofa has an elegantly curved silhouette (see our post
High/Low: The Curvy Sofa ) and is available in four shades of velvet or customer’s own fabric; $7,930 to $9,420 at The Future Perfect.
“In our book, expense alone does not merit quality” when it comes to shopping for a sofa, writes Alexa. She rounds up “our most-dreamed-of luxury sofas” in this week’s 10 Easy Pieces post.
