      Don't have a subscription, but there's a non-paywall version on MSN. Off to read it.

        Interesting article. I am a bit of a contradiction because I really dislike great rooms, but in our new house, the piano will go in the dining room and we’ll put our dining table at one end of the living room, from which you can also see the kitchen. -_-

        Although at least there’s a half wall b/w the kitchen and the living room, so it’s not as open as those in houses being built today. But it’s still pretty great room esque…
