Main-Level Refresh | Living Room & Home Office

When the original laminate planks shifted and left gaps underfoot, we replaced them with luxury vinyl plank throughout the main level. Because the new flooring was thinner, we built up the subfloor to maintain the finished floor height, keeping the existing baseboards and door clearances. Updated light fixtures and new fireplace hearth tile were part of the refresh.<br /> <br /> In the living room, a sectional and two windowpane-check swivel chairs offer plenty of seating for movie nights and games. An area rug anchors the seating, coffee and side tables keep drinks and books within reach, and custom patterned cushions give the built-in window benches a place in the seating plan. We chose performance fabrics and added Fiber-Seal protection with the family and their dog in mind.<br /> <br /> We turned the kids’ former playroom into a home office with a geometric metal-base desk and a coordinating Rustic Oak storage cabinet. Behind the cabinet doors, shelves and pull-out trays keep the printer and supplies easy to reach during the workday and out of sight afterward.
