Created as an alternative to the home’s formal living area, this intimate lounge was designed for cozy evenings watching TV while keeping the adjacent dining room feeling elevated. Painted in Benjamin Moore’s Early Sunset, a hue inspired by the desert golden hour, the space balances warmth with refinement.

A deep sofa fits snugly wall-to-wall, paired with a walnut veneer coffee table and tucked-away ottomans that double as extra seating. Across from it, a walnut console anchors the TV wall with a built-in feel, while vintage lighting and layered artwork — from desert photography to collected travel mementos — add personality and charm.

By day, sunlight floods the room; by night, warm lighting transforms it into the perfect hideaway for movie marathons or casual gatherings.
