[quote=Anonymous]We just bought a new home. The previous owners were older and had very formal tastes - lots of artwork, very formal draperies, wing backed chairs. The house has a big living room (20x15) with a federal style fireplace, big crown moulding and cherry wood floors. I love the room, it has so much potential...but I'm coming from a small house and need to pretty much start this room from scratch. Our previous home was pretty casual/cottage like in design. Our new house also has a family room that will be more casual with a sectional and TV. Our style is traditional but contemporary. What would you do with this room? Keep it a more formal space? A sofa and some arm chairs? Put another sectional in there? Maybe something more traditional? When we have guests over we will likely hang out in this space so we want it to be comfortable. Our friends and family are pretty casual so I don't want to end up recreating the stiff style that was here before. WWYD?[/quote]
