Your 3rd level family room has terrific space and a much sought after fireplace. It just lacked some color and cohesiveness. The goal of the re-design is to create rustic/country style space that is functional, inviting and comfortable for your family, and to utilize the room's full potential. The challenge of this room is the long and narrow layout, and the lack of natural light.

With some accessories, paint, and new furniture, your family room will be transformed into a more functional, comfortable, and inviting space.

Remember that not everything has to be purchased new - look around your home for items that match this design and yard sales and flea markets are great too.

Functional and comfortable seating is provided by the new sofa with chaise lounge. This sofa allows a more open feel to the space so that you are not walking into the back of a sofa when coming down the stairs to the room.

The new leather recliner offers another comfortable seating option, and works well with the design style you are trying to implement.

A coffee table designed with the rustic look of planked furniture replaces your existing coffee table. Two matching side tables complete the look.

You said you like sage green and it works beautifully here. The paint color adds interest to the space, and is reminiscent of a cozy lodge. New throw pillows add color, texture and pattern to the space, and complement the paint color which is important in making the room feel finished. The throw blanket is a must have for keeping warm by the fire.

The artwork above the fireplace features a landscape that contains the same colors currently used throughout the space. The wall-mount lantern candleholders flanking the artwork are a perfect fit for a rustic style room and have a dark bronze finish.

The desk provides ample storage and is the ideal finish and style for a traditional but somewhat country space. The desk features a hutch with a door for concealed storage, and contains a file drawer for letter-sized documents.
