[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is a great example of a room you have to live with for a full year[/b] (through 4 seasons) to know how you'll use it best. As a pp said, assuming it does get hot in there, I'd first invest in some kind of shades and ceiling fans before buying furniture for the room - it is possible that an outdoor awning could help control the sun/shade, too. Once I had the sun and temps under control in the room, then I'd probably put chairs (is the room a good shape for 4 conversation chairs in a circle, with a round coffee table or ottoman in the middle?), and some open bookshelves to store board games, kids toys, beachy looking knick knacks. Definitely plants, too. If there is room for a bar cart, it could make a great area to have drinks when friends come over. Make it like a vacation room![/quote]

I agree with this. I've also seen beautiful drapes from Garnet Hill or Grandin Road that are sheer with color or some pattern to let in light but have some privacy. You will have to see where the light is most intense. A friend had a room like this in his she - I only saw it once, but I saw his mother on a chaise lounge, surrounded by greenery, reading in the sunlight. I've never forgotten that. [/quote]
