At TOH TV's latest project house, minor floor plan tweaks and a modest addition gave a family of four new places to gather, play, and spend quiet time.
A Dedicated Family Room Where the Kids Can Hang Out
The porch footprint became a 13-by-14-foot family room, where adults and kids alike can play games and watch television. Alternatively, the younger set can take over the family room while the grown-ups kick back in the living room; a doorway between the two spaces allows for easy interaction and circulation. Both entries to the family room were finished with pocket doors, so the space can be closed off to shut out the sound of loud movies or video games. Because the sofa wall is on the street-facing side of the house, smaller windows were placed high up to give the room some privacy without sacrificing natural light.
