Need help with a layout on a particular floor plan
Comments (3)I would stop the tile where the wall between the kitchen and dining room is. It's a natural break point between the two types of flooring. Re: the dining room, I think a round table that can extend for larger parties would be ideal and would make it feel a bit more open and easier for traffic flow....See MoreNeed Help with Living Room Layout
Comments (5)Hi. It is a challenging space. Your layout options did not post. When designing a space, it has to both function and look good. There is no sense in adding decor until you have a functional floor plan and right now, you do not. I can help, if you can give more information 1) Photos of the other walls of the room. 2) Do you have to keep the sofa with the chaise? 3) Is the sliding door used? 4) How many people must be accommodated to sit in the space on a regular basis? Thanks!...See MoreI need help with the layout of my first floor
Comments (14)Thank you Kat. Where the windows are now in the Den I was thinking double French doors and where you have the new sink a nice big window and replace the existing door in the den with a bay window. Around the front of the house is a wrapped around porch. This will be a big project and we want to make sure we do it right, and also keep the farmhouse feel. What would be the best way to transition the foyer into the kitchen? Small opening with barn doors or something else?...See MoreFormal Living Room Layout - NEED Layout help!
Comments (5)Does "formal" imply you have another space for tv watching? A family room? Or is this the only room for tv? If the former? Make the tv more secondary........use an adjacent wall. Better by far as the need for built in expense will be less, and same with media console and tv. As below...and I will hope that is the case. - you've another tv spot. Truly....... the view into the room is far better this way in EITHER case. A room needs to make CONVERSATION possible; nobody wants to shout at another off in the distance. And that love seat can just as easily be two VERY comfortable chairs. One quarter inch to a foot below. Don't forget a great rug.....9 x 12. Lighting matters.......art matters. : ) The very last thing you need? An accent wall via paint. One paint color will do it.....please. You will get more help if you post some inspo pics of rooms/styles you love. There are no mind readers here......See Morenailian
