Indoor/Outdoor Appeal

The wrought iron furniture is rugged enough to stand up to the weather, and so are the more refined elements -- the plush cushions and custom curtains -- thanks to the advance of outdoor fabric. Plates hung on the shingled wall add to the living room effect, but there's no mistaking the fresh air and unobstructed view.
