LIVING-DINING DVIDER WALL

 















Above: This is the Divider Wall that I designed for our house in Dalton, Georgia, back in 1990.  It had been a solid wall with a normal sized door on the right side leading through to the space between Dining Room and Kitchen.  The new triple thick 'open wall', not only opened up the Living Area to the Dining Room and Sunroom beyond, it also served as a wonderful built-in display feature.  We were so pleased with this wall that we incorporated the same design into our 2010 new house build (below) in Arran with the same stunning results.


 
We love classical sculpture - so are pleased to display the two (below) fine, scale reproduction statues in our Living-Dining divider wall.  One of each on both sides, facing in opposite directions, for ease of full viewing.
 
 
'Perseus Beheading Medusa' / Benvenuto Cellini.
