living room advice
This is my living room (small apartment), I would like some advice on what carpet would be fine here, and what size should it be. Also some advice on what art-decor would look fine above the couch.
Thanks!

Since the room is long and narrow, you could just use a shaped flokati or hide rug out in the middle. Art should stay within 75% of the sofa's length and hang 5" above it. The TV and shelves are way too high. Decor on walls should center at 5' above the floor.

Comments (4)I know you were asking about the furniture arrangement, but have you considered painting the walls a lighter color? It seems dark to me. I do not think you need drapes unless you need privacy. As far as the blue lower part of your wall...do you have any other blue in the room? I would remove the little bench in front of the fireplace and the little floor lamp.....maybe find another place for them. Could you swap places with your couch and chairs? More open to get to the one set of sliding door and the couch would be sort of a room divider....See MoreLiving room advice**First time Homebuyer**

Comments (7)Before buying anything, suggest first getting a sense of how you want room to feel, as a rug especially has a big influence and there are so many looks that would suit your room (and buy correct size). Try searching on line for modern farmhouse living rooms for help. I’d look for a large coffee table (again measure and decide on best shape); https://happyhautehome.com/2020/08/20/how-to-choose-the-right-size-coffee-table/amp/ Black framed prints between lanterns would tie in nicely and consider a table with some black metal. Given TV’s size and its proximity to mantle, just accessorize hearth. Perhaps narrow wood candlesticks on one side would work. Window treatment idea Collect and save your favourite rooms and it will making choosing and coordinating room a lot easier (and at some point, consider adding something on either side of fireplace)....See MoreLiving Room Advice?
Comments (4)The room needs a little more color. I would paint an accent wall behind the sectional in a dark brownish/plum color so the sofa has something to play against. Look at Benjamin Moore 'Suede Brown'. I would replace the coffee table with an ottoman for the feet. I like the rust color from the carpet. Get something with legs so as to not hide the carpet. I would pull the rug towards the TV a foot or so....See More

mark it off w/tape first so you can calculate the size you need.
not quite sure about those sconce lights on the wall,,,they practically on the ceiling! Perhaps something w/the bulb facing downwards would be of more use?
a nice table lamp in the corner would offer a bit more light in the evening.Juan Carlos Ruiz
