TRANSCRIPT:
So, Mary, the one question we always get asked is what kind of floor is this?
This is oak flooring, and they're 5-inch planks, and it's white washed, and it's a very, very popular choice right now with homeowners. This is real rustic, it's got black knotholes, which I love because the overall flooring is light, but the black knotholes kind of tie it in with the black details, the tile and some of the other details in the home. We've taken it throughout the entire house here except for the bathrooms, the wet areas. I think it makes the home feel a lot larger. It's very practical for families and for models because you don't have to replace carpet all the time because of traffic. For this home we have the white cabinets, we wanted to keep everything light but we wanted to create a lot of contrast with all of the dark details like the beams in the ceiling. And in the family room we have that fabulous fireplace wall with a tile that looks very, very similar to gray travertine, and it goes all the way to the ceiling. And then it's flanked on one and contrasted by the dark built-in with all of the accessories. And then on the other side, you see the opening into the game room, where you can see the accent painted wall in the back. And all the colors, from the game room and the living room, all work together, it's the same palette. And then the really large art over the two openings: one of the biggest mistakes a lot of people make is to not get the scale right. Scale is really, really important, so it would be deadly to have small pieces up there. So you always want to make sure that your artwork fills the space where you want to have it hang. The other thing about the living room is that it's sort of what we call "enduring design." And, again, that's curated look where we have some very classic, traditional pieces like the coffee table and one of the end tables, but we have a stylized, custom sofa from Bassett that has very contemporary lines but nail heads and dark feet. Behind the sofa is a really rustic sofa table. So, because it has a curated look, it's very friendly and not like a museum.
