There was a feeling that the first floor was giving the family a hug, but one that lasted too long and too tightly. With the family’s need to feel an easy sense of connection with each other and a desire to have a space that worked with their daily activities, it was obvious that the cramped first floor wasn’t going to suit their lives.
