Define interior without walls
von S.I.D. Interior Designers
Design and fashion trends tend to repeat themselves over time, with each generation trying to reinvent the past. But reviving the sunken living room has more to do with necessity than mere decorative aesthetics. The general acceptance of the open floor plan has led to both interior designers and homeowners having to think of new ways to delineate areas and create clear boundaries between transition areas. Sunken living rooms are the perfect way to break up the monotony of the open floor plan while at the same time being sure that the space still remains visually airy and consistent.
