This welcoming family room was updated from a faded '80's brown palate. Now a sapphire blue sectional faces a flat screen tv over the fireplace, eliminating a wall of cabinetry. The leather ottoman has storage inside for more afghans and trays for entertaining. Area rug is custom, in shades of green, blue and gray. The side chairs were reupholstered. Art pieces are from the owner's collection, lit by new wall sconces. The floor has a maple perimeter border with a walnut inset. Photo by Harry Chamberlain
