What Houzz contributors are saying:
Murphy positioned the breakfast alcove to take full advantage of morning light. The leather sheet chairs are from Vermont, and the vintage rack came from a French pharmacy.A few unexpected modern touches keep the space fresh, including stainless steel kitchen counters, an Eames lounge chair and outsider art.
Sometimes a dining room is simply a small space where two people can enjoy a meal together. In this comfy gatehouse, two armchairs and a table found a pleasant corner within an open space.See the rest of this home
