It would helpful to have pictures of the entire room.

A framed mirror would look great over the table if it reflects something nice. Otherwise, a square or vertical piece of art would work.

It’s a small apartment! That is basically the entire room!
The dining nook is across from that console, so a mirror would reflect the gallery art and chandelier above my dining bench.

I think I would leave it as is unless your willing to get a larger console table. Maybe try a larger arrangement

I would simply slide the couch grouping (and rug) down a bit- not much- to the right then put a larger piece of art over the couch.

I would slide the couch grouping also and lose the console altogether. Less is more.

The sofa is centered on the wall unit across from it (with TV). The wall unit and wall end about where the recliner sits. If the console isn’t there, it’s completely bare. I recently purchased the console.
Maybe I’ll just leave it empty for now.

I would add a colorful piece of art above it. Your room looks beautiful. I am very curious about the basketball hoop, and happy that my DH will not see this. :)

I also felt your sofa was crammed a bit in the corner. Maybe try it over about a foot or so? Tall skinny art above console. My OCD thinks the console should be even between the rug edge and the edge of the bump out wall :-)

Agree, scoot the sofa away from the window a little. Can you relocate the console

in the hallway?

The sofa is a foot away from the AC unit cover and has a plant next to it. Sitting in middle of sofa is almost exact center of TV. I can try to scooch over a little bit. I can easily center console between rug and bump out. We have one short hall and right now it’s spacious which I like. And there’s a cabinet adjacent so another console is redundant— could consider rearranging down the road (if I got rid of cabinet but right now it’s needed)

Can you bring in a few "red" accessories to tie in the rug trim a bit. Put the red

pillow on the blue chair.

The console looks great where it is. After seeing the whole room, I would use a vertical framed mirror over the console. BTW, that's the nicest integration of a basketball net in a room that I've ever seen! :)

Thx Calidesign! The gold/white hoop was a DIY project! A compromise for my boys :)— small apartment living at its best!
Any frame style suggestions? Like I said, I have an eclectic transitional style I think. The TV built in is white traditional and I have molding throughout. Otherwise pretty clean lines. I’ll take my time to find something, but with such a small space, I also thought mirror better than art, but ok with empty too. Since I’m not changing see over sofa, I think it would be hard to find complementary art. I think framed mirror, even if a little “different” I.e not a plain rectangle, might be more interesting.

and should be hung 5-8" above console? Above sofa art is ~68" from ground, console is ~32" tall, so 28-31" tall mirror and no wider than 30" (width of table). Does that sound right to you? I feel like something 24"x 30" would be nice. We have TONS of white trim/millwork so white would fit right in but wonder if it would look TOO white (though a high gloss white finish on an antique style mirror might be cool). Thank you!

Gold trim mirror. White would blend in with the wall.

Yes, antique gold might be better. Or even ORB- the 3 lights on that wall have ORB/black mixed with a little brass/antique gold. I don't want anything too shiny metal.

There's a red throw under the side table next to the sofa, so when you are sitting, there is some red visible. And the console drawer inside is red :). But perhaps I can find a red lacquered box/tray for the side table in which I can store the TV remotes (dual function)

Here's a few ideas. I don't know about the sizes though.

Thanks, I'll check out those sites, plus West Elm, Old Kings Lane and local thrift/consignment stores.

Separately, if I don't put up a mirror just yet (DH weary about adding more holes in the walls and mirrors need good anchors), is there some other way to style the console with height? A tall vase (perhaps red) or sculpture on one side and a plant on the other (topiary)?

My temporary solution (initials were flea market finds)! I’ll probably recover the chair seat at some point.

I would put the initials side by side (keep the height difference) and try to find a plant for the right side that is significantly taller. An orchid, or branches in a vase would work. And you can still use a mirror behind it when you find one.

The plant is a place holder. I was looking for something with height. This is all I had! I may have to get something faux as I don’t think anything real will get light in this spot. A faux orchid? Topiary? Is this height better or even taller. I will take my time to find a mirror. No rush

Recovered the chair. Liking the nook and so do the kids. Hoping to create s pull out desk for them.
