Living Room Concrete Floors Ceiling Lighting Bench Lamps Design Photos and Ideas

A picture window over a custom concrete bench fashions a window seat. “Family, friends, and animals all enjoy the various places to relax in the lounge,” says the homeowner. “The window seat is universally the most prized nook in the home.”
An inset shelf is a decorative feature above the firewood storage. “We enjoy the low sun in the winter mornings and the toasty warmth from the Jotul stove, which heats the whole back of the house,” say the clients.
The Wilfred sofa from Jardan is covered in the homeowners’ other favorite color: indigo. It sits with a reupholstered Womb Chair in the new living area.
Built-in seating maximizes space in the living room, and old pin-up calendars that were found on site have been framed as decor.
In the living room, a large built-in sectional with integrated storage frees up floor space and can accommodate more people than freestanding furniture, which would chop up the interior.
A multi-use podium runs the length of the wall under the windows and facilitates impromptu performances for the creative family that lives here.
The living room fully opens and extends to the terrace, allowing for indoor/outdoor living.
