The goal behind this space was to create a comfortable seating area for large groups to gather and be able to relax for hours on end. Whether playing games, having cocktails or reading the paper on a Saturday morning, this living room invites you to stay for awhile. We created a circular seating area by facing two chairs opposite two more chairs, grounded by the sofa and completed with the bench. We played with a palette of earth tones - predominantly browns, greens, yellows and reds to reflect the desert landscape surrounding the home. The stone hearth is the major focal point in the room, but since it’s a large room we opted to focus the seating area inward. The hearth, however, is a work of art all its own. Paintings, sculptures and works from the couples collection are thoughtfully distributed throughout the space for every occupant, regardless of where they’re seated, to have an incredible view.
