Spacious Living Area at the rear of the Bojicics' Bayview home is 2,000 square feet and stretches the full width of the house without any walls to cut off the view. There is an activity area, complete with small dance floor, a sunken seating area and a dining area, defined by being on slightly different levels with steps between. Even the lighting is an integral part of the design to suit the needs of the different areas throughout this unique dwelling.
