Will and Lisa moved into their cottage style fixer upper and have lovingly redone every room in the house except for the living room. The living room is a gloomy, drab disaster that needed a pick-me up. The wood paneling, dark furniture and dark curtains give the room a cave-like feel. Both Lisa and Will love the size of the room and the vaulted ceilings, but they are deeply dissatisfied with the room's current decor. They want to bring the bright and cheerful look of their kitchen into the living room and make it a welcoming space where they can relax and play with their three energetic boys. Although Will and Lisa live in the San Fernando Valley, their hearts still belonged to the beach. They love classic design and have spent numerous weekends acquiring the vintage furniture scattered throughout the house. They want a room that is light, airy and elegant -a beach house / summer cottage look that will meld with their French country kitchen.
