The LIFE-ing Room

A living room that hides its games in the furniture.

The insanely gorgeous living room welcomes guests with a classic quote: LIFE: Don’t stop playing because you get old, you’ll get old because you stop playing. Marbelized and muralized walls surround a giant, elegant chess set hand-crafted from solid teak on an in-laid chessboard floor, beautiful benches secretly store dozens of family board games, and two couches each hide a twin sleeper sofa. It doubles as the lobby of the Jumanji theater. Look closely at the coffee table: there is a full foosball table built into it, and the room looks straight out over the record word-search wall and the pool. The In-Floor Piano lives here too: a custom-built, high-tech seven-foot piano set right into the floor, lighting up as you play, in tribute to the famous scene from the movie BIG. Guests of every age walk, hop, and dance out melodies. Chopsticks is mandatory; Heart and Soul is strongly encouraged.
