I live in California and really believe in indoor/outdoor living—the inside should connect to the outside and the outside to the inside. Most important, I believe that everything should be beautiful.
Coral in the fireplace is quite interesting.
The chair is too close to the fireplace to be comfortable.
i get balance to the eye, but comfort is imperative and that chair is not a place someone would sit. It’s placement ruined the room. the rest I liked. There is no grounding to it which i would need personally…I would have chosen better options just as inviting
It’s not the “sleek, mod” look, but I like it. It’s warm, inviting and architecturally interesting.
I love this guy’s ideas!!!
