Living Room Layout Trouble
We moved into a new house recently and about doubled our square footage. Instantly we were excited about the possibility of adding seating room, and bought two couches for the new space. Now having them in, I'm having trouble deciding on what layout makes sense for the space to allow proper flow through the living room and also a functional space to keep our new couches in.
The space is about 15x19 and is also the entry to our house. Current issues that I'm having when attempt to create a layout is the entry way directly into the living, the staircase, and the entry into the dining room. Connected directly to it is our kitchen. I've added a picture of the house on Planner5d that I've been attempting to use to find new ideas as well as a picture of how the house is now.
I'm not opposed to adding additional furniture pieces or basically replacing anything except for the new couches.
Thanks for the help!

Comments (3)I would use the den as TV area with TV between the built-in bookcases. Then do a back-to-back arrangement with two sofas (they don't have to match) and a rolling sofa table between them. The one in the den would be the guest bed. When you have guests, simply roll the sofa table under a window and close the sliding door. As an office, place a desk facing the window if you need good light for online conferences, or put it on the wall if you don't do that. A rolling desk chair can move out of the way for the sofa to be opened. In the living room side, use a round dining table in the corner right of the fireplace. A coffee table 12-18" from the sofa and perhaps a pair of small scale upholstered armchairs in an "L" with the sofa, their backs to the window.

Comments (3)I understand why you wanted to have the bistro table/chairs on the window wall between the patio door and the kitchen passageway….it makes sense to have your dining area adjacent to the kitchen. The open wall at the opposite end is the perfect location for the tv. So swap the sofa and loveseat and anchor them and the cocktail table on the rug (front legs of sofa/loveseat on the rug), so the loveseat will pull in closer to the fireplace, leaving room behind for the dining area and access to the patio door. The square end table could then be placed in the corner between the sofa/loveseat....See More

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoIf possible, I would relocate the long sofa so that it is out of entryway and anchored on wall, facing staircase. I would put the tv on staircase wall/adjacent to staircase. With that arrangement, I would invest in a popup tv cabinet; so that when tv is not in use, it could be hidden, and the cabinet would basically serve as an entry console. I would probably keep a vase with some flowers on top of cabinet/console, when tv is not in use.
Many styles/options available in pop up/tv lift cabinets.
