Need Help with furniture/TV placement in dining room design
Comments (10)It would help if we had a better idea about the orientation of the rooms -- the space you have available. I agree with those who suggested you consider swapping the functions of the rooms -- make the existing dining room the TV viewing room and move the DR table to another room (LR or FR). Failing that, is it possible to extend the feed from the security cameras to a location where you would actually want to sit and watch TV? Failing that, could you purchase a nice tablet for hubby that he can have with him anywhere in the house, so he would have ready access to view the security feeds? After all, I would think the need to view those feeds is momentary at best -- watch a movie, pause the movie to check cameras for a second, return to movie -- right? He's not going to actually sit there and watch the feeds for any appreciable period of time, I would think (although my father can sit for appreciable periods of time watching the Weather Channel, so what do I know?)....See MoreSeeking help for furniture, layout, tv placement for empty living room
Comments (7)I suggest grouping whatever living room furniture you buy around the fireplace. It is what I did in my long living room (mine is wider than yours). Here are some layout suggestions: Before you buy any furniture, make sure you have the room to lay it out something similar to the above suggestions. Put tape on the floor, if you have to and make sure you have enough room to walk around the furniture. You can also try Basset Furniture and/or La-Z-Boy showrooms. They can help you with furniture arrangement and they do not charge you, like a designer does. For the TV, you could either get an entertainment center that will fit right or left of the fireplace or your could even mount your TV on the wall (I have 2 TV's that are wall mounted and I love it). When I was getting ready to move into my house 3 years ago, I needed brand new living room, dining room, and family room furniture. I shopped sales and I found my 2 sofas that are in my living room first at a furniture store selling La-Z-Boy furniture. I got lucky! The sofas were on sale for over 60% off and after choosing them, everything else fell into place. For the family room, I went to a La-Z-Boy showroom, found a reclining sofa I loved, and it was also on sale. I choose soft, neutral colors for it and two rocking recliners. We use this room to relax and watch movies on our big TV in the family room. I also suggest looking at rooms on Houzz and see what appeals to you, in style and color....See MoreNeed help with TV placement in the kitchen
Comments (5)either mount a little one above your coffee maker, or do something like this on the dining room wall I'd prob mount it on the wall to the right of the table. on the left side, directly behind your table, I'd hang some artwork or shelving. something to balance our the offset of the tv on the right. perfect table for your kitchen. you could also do a shallow built in on that wall w/a space to mount the tv. built in like this one^, would work perfectly for your spot. something like this would fit on the wall. then you could hang the tv in the center. I also like the sisal rug, or something similar for your space. either of these tables and chairs would look great in your kitchen. over you little coffee area, have you thought about doing some shelves in a natural wood? this would be the perfect spot to do a cool tile on the wall as well....See Moreneed help on tv placement in living room
Comments (10)But to your point grapefruit, if the tv was in the bar area, the seating would be awkward for a family of 5. That’s why I’m looking for a solution that can add more comfortable seating for tv watching and possibly replacing current furniture with a sectional....See MoreDenise Marchand
