The study of interior design is more than a catalogue of beautiful rooms. It is a window into the values of our culture, what we care about in any given snapshot in time.

In this episode, we breakdown the components of a well-designed Family Room. From layouts to sofas, coffee tables, storage pieces, and much, much more, we go deep into the room that has become the epicenter of a happy home.
