Where does family gather? Where do guests gather when they come over? Where do you sit to read the paper? Where do the kids gather to study, draw, practice their musical instrument? That’s right…the kitchen eating area! My room is based on the diversity of the family eating area whether an eat-in space within your kitchen or a separate dining room near the kitchen. Nowadays, that is where all of the hubbub occurs. With the help of my assistant, Kelsey Jacobucci, I have designed a room where family and friends can gather at the table, lounge in the rocker to read, practice an instrument or give a one person musical performance. There is storage in the cabinet for the family art supplies as well as linens and accessories for the table. Having an eclectic style only makes the space feel more personable and inviting so family photos and art can easily be displayed. I selected artists whose style, technique, and pieces would comfortably integrate with the feel I wanted to convey in this room. Enjoy!
