The Living Room

A wood burning fireplace, with woodbox, and open space with a view of the back deck and yard make for a cozy and attractive living area. Behind the couch on the right-hand side of the picture are the breakfast bar and kitchen area--which opens up this space even more--and behind the second couch is a large bay window that lets in lots of natural light without betraying personal privacy. In addition, the built-in bookshelves and track lighting above the mantle invite plenty of pictures or personal decorating touches.
