SMOOTH MOVES
After buying the house, Julia promptly repurposed its rooms, turning the original sunroom with its funky Moroccan-style gate and fountain into her family's dining room, and the original porch into a sunroom. The "new" sunroom is invested with all the elements that make Julia's personal style buzz with energy-a mix of a Romanian wedding trunk repurposed as a coffee table, a 1960s-vintage outdoor sofa commandeered for use indoors, and an old olive jar that stands by the door as sculpture.
