AFTER Family Room

The antique fireplace (circa 1740) is a stunning focal point in the family room. The room’s new iron lamps, chandelier, and metal coffee tables are all from Formations. Salvaged ceiling beams added architectural interest. “I used beams in a gridwork that worked with the style of the doors and fireplace,” explains architect Donald Lococo.
