Family room

|
A family room is an informal living area usually located adjacent to the kitchen. In many modern homes, the family room is where family and guests usually gather for television watching, informal dining, conversation, and other family activities. Often the family room has doors leading to outdoor living areas (garden, terrace).
Sometimes the family room is distinct from the living room, but often they are synonymous or they simply differentiate between two general-purpose rooms in the same house. In floorplans where the living room and family are combined the room is sometimes called a "great room".Template:Arch-stub
