Southern Casual
"Obviously, this room is set up for symmetry," Mona notes. "In long living rooms, you often have so much space in the middle that you can't get the perfect sofa or coffee table, but you can do pairs." The focal point, a wood-burning fireplace, heats the house efficiently. "Since I work from home and like to split wood, this was a must have for me," one of the home owners says. "Because it's sealed you can keep it going all day and the heaters rarely come on." Leather-bound books and commissioned pieces by local artist Tanya Sweetin fill the custom built-ins on either side of the fireplace and help artfully balance the television on the right side.
