Create Guest- and Child-Friendly Design for Living/Dining Rooms

Interior redesigner Wendy Murphy brings balance and warmth to a family room and dining area while maintaining a guest- and kid-friendly atmosphere.

Before

The furniture is too spread out so Murphy brings the pieces together to create a conversation area.
Gathering stools and a game table from the basement helps tie the rooms together with color.

After

Curtains and valances help to soften the windows and introduce a little drama.

Pulling together the family's great accessories and pictures showcases their personalities and adds visual interest to the rooms.
