Choose durable materials

With four young children, durability in the family room was key for the owners, designer Meg Braff says of this East Hampton, New York, house. The dark blue on the sofas, the leather ottoman, and the sisal rug are practically bulletproof. The sofa is upholstered in Hinsons Rawlston in Dunham Blue. Walls are covered in Africa Raffia in Key West Teal by Phillip Jeffries. The Farra Cocktail ottoman is by Hickory Chair; table lamp is by Christopher Spitzmiller.
