Our plan would be to replace two or more of the chairs, the paintings, and the cabinet you can't see in the alcove to the right with the Green Zone displays. I think we will want to preserve, possibly with built-in furniture (uses less space), the "loungeness" of this area.

We could use one of these display cabinets as well. It might be a good place to put the control units for the solar and wind systems. I've thought about painting the floor or walls green as a way of defining the zone and highlighting its presence.
