Do you know that view shapes your mood?
Many rooms are judged from the doorway.
We study them from the places where people actually spend time.
Sit on the sofa, lie in the bath, or lean back in the reading chair, and the view changes.
A window that looks perfect from the doorway may frame only a wall or rooftop once you sit down.
That is why we check sight lines from the bed, bath, dining table, and main seat, not only from where a visitor first enters.
A room proves itself from where it is lived, not from where it is admired.
