Houseboat Couch & Alcove Bed
This small houseboat maximizes limited space with a couch that converts to a private guest bed.
To be authentic & honor the site, the client provided a crawdad from the mud under her houseboat as a model for the silk-screen stencil. Additional images include local fossils, blackberries, ferns & dragonflies.
