For homeowners who are avid travelers, the design includes reclaimed tile from Spain, a Moroccan light fixture, and custom furniture from Italy, among other treasures.

The gray checked floor is one the sunroom's most unique details; it's made of reclaimed tile brought in from an 18th century Spanish church. Overhead, two skylights let in even more natural light.
