We gave the living room to the plants. It has southern exposure and we added lights. If I arrange things, redo the floor, and get rid of some stuff about 30% of that space could be used for entertaining.

From the photos I've seen your collection in the living room is very impressive! How do you deal with humidity though? I've struggled, particularly in winter with high humidity leading to mould.

We have very active mold in a few spots. At least it's white and not black mold.
