Create a Great Living Room
Form and Function Work Together to Make a Livable and Stylish Space
Article Excerpt:
The name “living room” says it all: You spend most of your home life in it. But you also welcome guests there; it is the most public room of your house and the one in which you want to make a statement and reflect who you are as a family.
You want your living room’s design to showcase your sense of style but still exude comfort and be long on function. Keep the room’s uses in the forefront, and add personal flair with design and decor for a room that both lets your family kick off their shoes and makes guests say “wow.”
In a great living room, function and design meet in one outstanding space.
