Small Open Space with Niches - Decor & Layout help!
Comments (3)I'm not a fan of TV's over fireplaces. I would close up the niches if you could and then use a console with the TV above it. Since you already have limited wall space with all the windows having the niches is just overkill....See MoreSmall space decor
Comments (9)Alright, so you have a little ways to go in pulling this one together, but the rug, TV stand & basic sofa/loveseat work. Not to overwhelm, but here are a few suggestions: I would either paint the existing cocktail table the turquoise in your rug or a taupe color. You could also consider a new one like a sliding top chest that could house the furniture covers when guests are over. It looks like your window casing doesn't allow for inside mount of the blind, so a simple wood blind or natural colored Roman shade measured correctly for the window would look nice. The table lamp needs to be somewhat larger & the ceiling fan would match better in more of a wrought iron style with caged Edison bulbs. I would consider painting the bump out of the TV wall a slightly darker color than the rest of your walls. I would also try to stay away from the dated art work that's framed, matted & glassed in. You could update with earthy, more weathered framed art, a collage of old empty picture frames of different colors & sizes, metal plaques, & hung baskets. Last, but not least I would invest in some patterned & textured down filled pillows that hold their shape & look thicker. It's amazing how quality pillows can take the rooms look up a knotch....See MoreDecor above Sofa in Small Space
Comments (6)Art is always good, but I think the mirror posted above is nice. That finish would pick up on the other brass/gold finishes present, and properly hung, would reflect the large art and the interesting light fixture. The layout could be improved by switching the bookcase to the opposite wall to be more visible, move the sofa over to center, and add a tall plant or floor lamp to the left.

Comments (20)I had a 60” with two sinks. Not worth it-very little counter space between...that last pic has to bigger than 60”. We hardly ever washed our faces/brushed at the exact same time. And the drawers were ridiculously small in between. If the vanity sits between two walls, then a medicine cabinet on each side and one larger sink in the middle with a mirror across the whole back wall. The nice thing about a sink in the middle is you can still have larger drawers to store things. Here’s a good article explaining why you need a minimum of 30” and even that is still uncomfortable to use. https://www.jlconline.com/products-tools/kitchen/kitchen-bath-when-a-double-vanity-just-wont-fit_o...See MoreTami Ehrlich
