Family room by Mary McDonald

The Santa Barbara setting also spoke to Los Angeles designer Mary McDonald, who played with sea- and sky-inspired tones of blues in the family room. McDonald kept the seating casual and relaxed with a loose-back cushioned sofa from Baker and blue leather armchairs from Lee Industries grouped around a wood-topped coffee table from the Cabana Home collection.

The limestone fireplace surround by Exquisite Surfaces is dramatic and a bit rustic, in keeping with the casualness of the home. Brass sconces highlight artwork and the double-swing lamp arms extend to provide light for reading.
