The sun-filled living room enlivens the senses in friendly pastels and bold patterns. A soft green sofa, rattan settee and pair of striped occasional chairs gather to enjoy the simple white fireplace. The living room walls are painted the palest of blue, and white built-in bookcases home treasured art and objects.

The living room waits for its gorgeous redesign.

The original built-in bookcases and French doors are details that will be retained in the new design.

A white built-in bookcase does double-duty as greenhouse and exhibit space in this fun-filled living room. A rattan daybed invites a read by the fire or contemplation of the gallery wall. This home is full of interesting furniture selections like the daybed and the capiz shell coffee table with brass base.
