As I’ve mentioned, these days I'm usually not much of a fan of formal living rooms. These rooms can easily become wasted spaces, unless the space is created with purpose and able to draw people in. The conversational seating here, gorgeous ocean view, and the fact that a guest must pass through the bar to get to this room (and may have a drink in hand!) helps the family to make the most of this beautiful room.
Details matter. In the third photo, you can see how the brown tones of the fireplace wall are like those of the window and door frames. The lighting around the central beam is sleek and elegant. The wall tiles are reflective and almost expand the room because all the lighting, both natural and artificial, is reflected a second time.
