Living Room with a Reading Nook and Dark Hardwood Flooring Ideas and Designs

The McDonough's kitchen is all about contrast. The dazzling Leicht Luna-C fronts in Frosty White and the sink worktop in Glacier White provide the perfect backdrop for darker, earthier shades. That gorgeous marble island in Bianco Eclipsia polished quartzite catches the eye straight away, and the glass splashback in Bronze Mirror adds a touch of luxe. The open-plan kitchen and living area works really well in the McDonough's home, and the two rooms complement each other with their unique décor. The whole space is bright, breezy and fun, with a few touches of the unexpected – they’ve added mismatching chairs around the dining table and pendant lighting in obscure shapes. Contemporary accessories, fruit and flowers give the kitchen a colourful, arty feel.

Off the entry way are French doors, which lead to a small den, the perfect place for a good book or relaxing in the afternoon. Bookshelves line the wall across from the window, where two upholstered armchairs sit. New patterned drapery with a dark wood rod ties in with the new dark wood floors. Striped pillows carry the nautical theme throughout the home. Photo credit: Stephanie Swartz
