Living Room Dark Hardwood Floors Accent Lighting Lamps Design Photos and Ideas

A Pampa rug from Argentina adorns this light-filled living room designed by Cortney Bishop.
The custom-designed white maple modular coffee table can be kept together as one piece, or separated to form stools or smaller tables. "Each of the four cubes is slightly different, with a storage recess or dividing panel for stowing books, magazines, pillows, or other objects," says Thomas.
In the living room, a new faceted, blackened-steel fireplace surround is juxtaposed with leaded glass windows. "The existing portions of the house offer more formal and internal spaces for cozy entertaining and lounging," says Chadbourne.
The insertion of an attic makes the most of the apartment’s tall ceilings as well as provides ample space for the family.
A hanging fireplace from Fireorb anchors the living area, where Book Totem and Peace Sign, both by Karen, are on display. A Graffiti pendant by Hubbardton Forge hangs over a custom table by Jed Dawson.
The "library under the stars" features thousands of old books plucked from antique shops.
