The lower level of the house will be designed for both casual gatherings of brothers and to be flexibly configured to accommodate larger social events.
More than just a party room, it will be furnished with multiple seating areas to encourage a variety of daily uses.
The open area will be slightly smaller than it is today, which will allow for additional storage closets, a larger laundry room, and restrooms.
The chapter room will remain a unique feature of the house.
