Home of the Day: Swing from the rafters in this artsy Venice Beach bungalow
- Share via
A dramatic triangular wood-beam ceiling gives this Venice bungalow the feel of a fancy attic. Not only does it look cool, but the ceiling also serves a whimsical purpose: A pink rope swing hangs from one of the exposed rafters in the living room.
Outside, however, the home takes on an artsy vibe, with a graffiti-inspired paint job in black, purple and teal.
