 About the Dining Room

Open to both the great room and kitchen, the casual chic dining area commands attention through thoughtful use of eye popping accessories, including a teak wood sculpture purchased in Mount Pleasant, S.C., and cage-shaped chandeliers. "You don't have a place for artwork, a big mirror or a piece of furniture," says interior designer Linda Woodrum. "So you are looking for ways to do more than just chairs, a table and a rug."
