Library / Dining Room close to the Met
This is the Library/ Dining Room. Multi purpose rooms make a lot of sense in Manhattan. Most of the year this is a Library /Sitting Room. The children can watch TV here and there's plenty of space for putting your feet up on the ottoman and relaxing. On those occasions when the space becomes a Dining Room ; some changes take place.
1. The drop leaf table is moved from the wall to the center of the room.
2. The two demi-lune tables are brought from the Living Room and put at each end of the table.
3. The two teal colored arm chairs become Host chairs.
4. Tapestry covered side chairs are brought from the Foyer and placed at the
table.
And Voila! We're ready for a formal dinner!
