The family often assembles in the great room, which is spacious with plenty of seating. Marie's grandmother's dining table, which she had painted black, separates the seating areas. It functions as a console but can change into a dining area by using the chairs tucked beneath. Even the coffee table converts into a dining table with miniature stools. The couple chose to decorate in the "jewel tones" of gold, green and red that Marie loves. Interior designer Kimberly Davis helped them.
