“We can see our kids growing up in this house, and we designed it with that in mind,” Rebecca says. The cheery, light-filled room with custom built-in cabinetry and an 11-foot ceiling is mainly a playroom now, but was designed with built-in desks and computer hookups so it can transition to a study space as the children grow older — although Brynn and Rhys already make good use of their desks. The built-in bookshelf echoes the shape of the broad, arched window on the opposite wall.Across from the desk area is a space dedicated to crafts. Both the long desktop and the top of the built-in craft table are fashioned from stainproof quartz — a lesson learned from the previous playroom, whose desks were glass-topped. “Pencil eraser dust would get under the glass. They always looked dirty and were hard to keep clean,” Rebecca recalls. “But everything is easily cleaned from quartz, which is good since my little one loves to scribble with crayons.” A sizable window seat and a cozy sofa nook complete the main layout. Beyond the closed closet door, however, lies an additional play and storage space that currently houses a play kitchen, a table and chairs. One idea from the old house that the Munros were eager to repeat was to set the playroom on the second floor with the children’s three bedrooms, keeping the “million toys and clutter off the main floor,” Rebecca says. She picked the tangerine, aqua and gray color palette “because I have a boy and two girls, and I needed a gender-neutral space.”
