PLEASE HELP - Living room layout and furnishing ideas
Hello
Any help with finishing our new living room off would be appreciated. The corner in the first photo is where I need to focus my attention at this point. We need storage ideas for the stereo and CDs (prefereably out of sight and little hands), baby toys and other items. We don't have a TV so that doesn't need to be considered.
To give you an idea of the rest of the space, we have sliding doors to the garden beside that corner, a big blue couch opposite it and an open plan kitchen, a grey kitchen cabinet, a white modern round table and the painting on the wall. The white drawers and ugly desk are just temporary storage for now.
Please help. I want to feel like we live here now and aren't just half moved into our house. Thank you very much!!!!

Comments (4)Hi @tangerinedoor, thanks for your comment! As it's a real estate photo, I agree with you on the photoshopping - it looks a lot brighter in the photo than in real life, at the moment it is on the dark side and has a yellow tinge to it due to the amber glass. There is also another section of this room not visible in the photo, that you will see in the floor plan. We are awaiting settlement, so unfortunately I'm not able to post any further images but was hoping for inspiration in the meantime....See MoreHelp with ideas for living room furniture layout
Comments (0)Hello, I'm looking for help with layout ideas and suggestions on furnishing my living room. I've always found the room a bit difficult because there is a natural walkway from the front door to the rest of the house. Also, there is a decent sized window, but the sill starts only 21" from the ground, so it's hard to place something there without covering um the bottom of the frame. I'm just looking for general ideas on tv/sofa/sectional/coffee table locations. Thanks!...See MoreFurnishing our new living room, please help!
Comments (8)Afraid we don't have access to another room for TV use. We're also both quite big film buffs so a decent TV set up to us is essential. I've looked more at the idea of a 3-seater sofa and 2 arm chairs as shown in the previous arrangement and the compromise might be, as you say, an adaptable living space; where we can move chairs around to suit our needs. Not ideal though and permanent arrangement would be soo much better....See MoreAwkward Living Room Layout. How to Furnish?
Comments (13)the pro taken photos are meant to capture as much of the room into one shot. the problem is, it exaggerates the size of the room. can you stand over by your stairs and shoot into the room? try opening the front door, stand in the doorway, and shoot another pic from that angle. would you like the TV over the fireplace or against one of the walls? do you have any plans for that fireplace? could you do something like this? or what about like this? 2 sofas facing each other, two chairs in the middle. those shouldn't block the walkway to the kitchen. you could do smaller chairs instead of two sofas, one sofa facing two chairs, tv above mantle sofa against front door wall, coffee table, large recliner or two other chairs,, maybe some smaller ottomans on the kitchen door opening side. this is what beverly suggested: sofa/chairs coffee table imagine this is the far wall to the right of the FP. set up the sofa w/back to the front door. you could position the chairs differently. you'd have that whole wall for console for tv, gaming. maybe a sofa w/a chaise. stick a chair over in the corner by window below, front door would be behind the gray sofa. (or, you could reverse this on put tv on the front door wall) sofa w/chaise like this:...See Moreamberleys1
