We don’t have a Living Room because that term doesn’t make sense; we live in all our rooms, so we must be more specific than that.

Introduction:
This room is where the most galas are held. It is the best for entertaining in the whole house, having a massive, semi-circle of a hibachi grill at its center, back-to-back extra-long couches, a stylish stretch-fireplace, a Steinway grand piano in one corner, a fish tank built into the back wall with a viewing window the size of a king-size blanket, five-stories-tall curtains-adorned archways into adjacent rooms, and multiple giant chandeliers made entirely of diamonds.
–
Dimensions & Layout:
Measuring 100’x150′ across its floor, and standing 100′ tall, as all the main rooms in this mansion do, the hibachi room has plenty of space for hundreds of guests. Like the breakfast room, it has a wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling, glass-like, outer wall which has a wide-screen view of the mansion’s largest yard, its two swimming pools, and the start of the waterfall and Cliff Stepway which meet down by the river delta they form at the start of Inisfree’s longest beach. This is also the room which has the longest view of the mansion’s wrap-around porch and patio.

Special Features:
On the breakfast-room side of this hibachi-room is a staircase whose steps are all separate from each other, suspended in mid air by miniaturized Repulsine and other technology. Portal technology keeps a steady flow of water, from the floor-streams feeding Snowdunes runoff into this mansion, pouring straight down as if magically appearing from the bottoms of each of these separate steps. Additional portals, set into corresponding positions along this room’s floor right beneath each step, make the water seem to disappear again just as magically. The steps themselves are transparent, appearing like glass, though each one is shaped from a single large diamond, and one can see the bubbly water appearing as it falls out of the hidden portals just a millimeter beneath them. Because of this, few guests have been brave enough to try walking up and down this also railing-less staircase. Those who do… find that it connects with the Meditation Room upstairs.
2023 September note: The fireplace is 3 layers of SRC-based transparent-metal, thus it is safe to touch the exterior.

Novels Excerpt:
Their walk from that breakfast room and its adjacent hallway would take them through a third of the ground-floor rooms of that vast mansion, past several small groups of the beautiful girls that made up his Secret Service. First, they exited the breakfast room through its tall archway into the living/hibachi room. It had a wall of windows, floor to ceiling, with glass-like doors built into them, and an impressive view of their terraced swimming pools. More Secret Service and kajirae were tending to various things outside across those pools’ surrounding lawns.

Overall:
These images show the conceptual sketch, the color scheme, the long fireplace elements, the doormat/s, and what the view is like (though not what is actually seen).
–
Staircase Up to the Meditation Room:
Picture sky-blue colored crystal-like steps which appear suspended midair and each with a calm waterfall flowing down from their underside, as if via an invisible portal there that matches their bottom-face perfectly. Naturally, this is a very daunting staircase to walk up or down, but ICVs are there to assist if desired, and other safety features ensure no one can fall or get cut/scraped by an edge.
–
The Hibachi Table:
Mongolian stir-fry is here, done by a few of my MF ICVs (all of whom are master chefs), always makes the day; in-home Genghis Grill, but way healthier.
–
Concert-length Grand-piano:
It does not play itself. We have an ICV sit naked on its bench when someone wishes to hear piano music played live in this room.
–
The Red Seat:
This is the only seat of its kind in this house. It is a triangular one with concave sides and studded red velvet cushions/surfaces.
–
Kajirae Selfies Here:
We don’t have any cell phones in our realm, so photographs like this are taken with the artificial eyes of our creations, such as ICVs or the mirrors themselves.

2022 Update: Minecraft Model
In the 2 aquariums in this room, some of the fish are ICs; animatronics, while others are there by choice. We telepathically communicate with all living beings, and make sure that the only creatures swimming in these big fish tanks of ours are those who like the size and other conditions of such spaces. We do not keep fish (or anything other than perfect kajirae) as pets.

2023 Update: Framed Images
The biggest wall-art in this room features our first biggest/famous feasts;
- Auz‘s first birthday party here; at his own custom restaurant
- Liberty High School‘s cafeteria grand-opening
- our first Thanksgiving
- Ambi’s welcome-back celebration dark-theme food
Since all framed images in this house are digital, they can be animated like GIFs or video clips.

2024 September/+:
- for cookout BBQ days: Monterey Farms’ “arti-hearts” (3 flavors) as one (3) of the sides (available side-dishes)
- The only fish in the 2 aquariums in this room are those which get along perfectly with each other; we screen and test them to ensure they are fully culturally/socially compatible with the kind they will always encounter in these fish-tanks.
- Sea-creatures in these fish-tanks are always quite small, never as large as a dolphin or turtle, of course, and include some of the same in our Sea-tanks facility; anemones, corals, and urchins. ICVs make sure they are always getting the nutrients they desire/need, and the mini-ecosystems in these tanks generates plenty for them, assistance from ICVs/people never needed, though ICVs hourly check on them just to be nice/thoughtful/responsible.
- The MC model’s staircase represents a true-spiral staircase; successively smaller loops/sections on the way up, no angles, no straightaways, and not a corkscrew-form like most/standard false-spiral (misnamed) staircases. (In Minecraft, the waterfalls-staircase of this room has straight sections and right angles, but IRL in Inisfree the staircase it represents is a true spiral, the only straight parts being its individual steps.)
