Arranging furniture in an odd shape living room with fireplace
Comments (9)I think I would swap the smaller sofa and put it n the tv room and put the larger one centered, floating in front of the fireplace. I'm not usually a fan, but since your window is off center, I'd try putting the small sofa at and angle, right of the window and face it to a tv in the opposite corner. For the bay window in the formal space, I think it would be a great spot to put your barrel chairs with a 36" round table height side table. What a wonderful place to have morning coffee, read a magazine, play a game of chess, etc or even maybe do a small puzzle. Like this arrangement, but a small round, game size type table....See MoreHelp with Designing and furniture placement in ODD shaped Living Room
Comments (3)Welcome to California! Is the wall beside the fireplace large enough to house the tv. I see in one pic attached they have a console table to the left of the FP, i would put your tv there, a sectional would be a bad idea here but you might get away with a sofa that has a chase at the end which would be placed to the side of the sliding glass door....See MoreFurniture placement in l-shaped living room / dining room
Comments (6)Great, thanks! I would use a round table that can extend to oval when you have company in the dining area, right over near the kitchen. One chair backing into the corner, rather than a chair with its back to the kitchen door. The desk can stay right where you have it in this photo. Sofa on the wall with the windows with a side table at each end. Two chairs across from it with a table between them. I sketched a pic but can't post comments on my phone, boo :(...See MoreArranging furniture in an odd shape living room with fireplace
Comments (7)Like Julie Anne, I would use a round table with 4 chairs over by the sliding door. If it expands to oval shaped with 6 chairs, even better! However, I wouldn't do a second table under the chandelier. Instead I would have that chandie replaced with a flush mount fixture and add a chandelier over the dining table. Then I would put a sofa facing the fireplace. The tv can go in the nook to the right if your tv is small enough, or over the fireplace if it is larger. In either scenario I like the idea of shelves in that nook. Put a pair of chairs in front of each window. The ones to the left of the fireplace can share a round table between them. I wouldn't use bar stools, personally. They are hard to slide in and out on carpet and they will restrict your furniture placing options. Instead I would tuck a bookshelf into that spot (because I always need more book storage!) Or just ignore it entirely; when you have guests they will enjoy leaning in the counter just as much as they will enjoy sitting on stools, if not more....See MoreShannon01
