The Home
37
master bedroom
—it’s just a bedroom with a-a private 
bathroom, 
master bath
—and to the left, we have three 
bedrooms: my daughter’s room, uh, bathroom that used 
to be my daughter’s bathroom, and she’s still saying, “It’s 
my bathroom!” but now it’s their bathroom, it’s the kids’ 
bathroom, uh, and also, we have, uh, my son’s bedroom, 
as well as an offi
ce, a pretty large offi
ce that my wife and 
I share.
INTERVIEWER:
What’s your favorite room in the house and 
why?
MAN:
I would say my favorite room in the house is the liv-
ing room, and it’s probably the, my favorite room because 
of the co—, the color, for one—it’s a very warm color, it’s, 
uh, almost a watermelon-peach type of color, and so it’s 
just very calming when you’re in the living room—uh, 
doesn’t receive a lot of traffi
c, so it’s always pristinely 
organized and-and kept, uh, nice and the piano is also 
in the living room, and so I have tons of music that, uh, 
that’s hidden in the, not hidden but it’s hidden in a cube, 
an oversize cube, and so all music is inside there, catego-
rized, and I just enjoy, I enjoy the living room, it’s-it’s an 
open space, um, very calming and great music comes out 
of the room.
4. A FAVORITE ROOM
Um, well, as I-I said earlier, I read a lot and I have a very 
comfortable reading place in my living room, very 
comfy 
chair right by the window, has good light, and I can play 
some music if I want to. Um, it’s-it’s a very comforting 
place to come home to and enjoy just the-the solitude of 
a good book or two or three good books.
