Where we all hang out
The living room is the room where we all spend the most time. My daughter has a play room, but she almost always just takes toys from there and brings them into the living room. I work from home, and do so from the living room. We usually spend most of the day in the living room, either watching tv, listening to music, or reading. So it is very important that the sofas and other furniture be really comfortable. If it wasn’t comfortable we wouldn’t be able to enjoy our time in the living room and we might end up separating to go to our bedrooms and not spending as much time together.
