Note
The domestic half of the lounge / living-room pair. `lounge` is the correct consumer name for this room in British usage and is carried as an altLabel; the term id `lounge` is held for the commercial homonym, because that is the sense both upstream dictionaries file it under. `living_area` - the sitting end of an open-plan flat - folds in here rather than becoming a term, since nothing about the surfaces changes when the walls come out.
