Central to upstairs flat by the linear nature imposed by the building, the living room provides a conveniently central place for the staircase, a homey atmosphere in which to relax with a copy of the Times, and a buffer area between the bedroom and the kitchen.
A couch and a reclining rocker provide comfortable seating from which to view the single compact all-in one LCD display/receiver/entertainment center or access the media center PC. The long low table provides a place to land a laptop, type on a cordless keyboard, set a mug filled with a favorite beverage, or prop up tired feet at the end of the day.
A kitchenette can be seen through an arched entryway. Doors lead to bedroom and bathroom.
