A streamlined English-arm sleep sofa accommodates overnight guests, while a generously sized, curvy armchair in a fabric inspired by 19th-century block prints makes an ideal reading spot. Across the room, a well-appointed desk and chair provide the function of a home office without sacrificing beauty in this multipurpose space. For a full room tour, watch the video above led by Mary Evelyn McKee, interior designer of the 2021 Flower showhouse.
