Cool Breezes

As a native Floridian, designer Brian Patrick Flynn knew just what this living room needed. “If you live in Florida, you have got to have a ceiling fan,” he says. “It’s just something you can’t escape. We loved how this was oversized and had the gray coastal washed look on the blades.”

Two sleek sofas upholstered in a light gray fog high-performance fabric provide comfortable and stylish seating. “They have one very long cushion and a low sloped arm,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn. “The single cushion is incredible. We love how clean it looks. It’s just one long removable cushion, so it’s also easier to fall asleep on that.”

Clever Design Tip

A pair of cast concrete cocktail tables take the place of a singular coffee table in this fashionable seating area. “It’s kind of an idea to show people how, if you use things in multiples, you can get that width that you need without having to have something custom-made,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Punch of Pattern

Behind one of the sofas, a custom blue Parsons console table provides a home for a pair of modern striped ottomans that add a punch of pattern to the living room. “I knew I wanted them for the house, because they looked like nothing we’ve ever seen before,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.

Audubon art and a 65-inch TV for watching all your favorite HGTV shows flank the fireplace. “We did a custom frame on the TV to have it blend in,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn. “We didn’t want the TV to necessarily jump out as a strong part of the view and the fireplace.”
