Leather sofa/cozy family room design dilemma

4 years agoThis is the way the windows were when we got the house.
I picked up the sofa and the greige shag rug (seen in the picture below)
I don’t have an eye for Interior Design so I guess my question is what would be some color combinations and what type of upholstered chairs that I could go with in this area

Comments (18)Pottery Barn has sofas with indoor-outdoor Sunbrella fabric, https://www.potterybarn.com/shop/new/sunbrella-feature I second those who've suggested starting good habits while kids are young -- teach them from the start how to treat furniture and the family belongings properly. And this is the time to start with rules like "no food or drinks in the living/family room"; and yes, it's perfectly fair to have one rule for the adults and another for the kids. Or you can limit what kind of food and drinks to allow kids -- when mine were young, it was water or apple juice only for them in the living room, no milk or grape/orange juice. Also, they grow fast : ) , so you don't really have to decorate around them too much (round ottomans vs. wood rectangular coffee table). I'd decorate for the room and with what you like. Buy quality the first time around. The arched fronts might be fairly easily removable. And I'd almost be tempted to have the builder drywall over the shelving above the arches....See MoreLong Family Room Dilemma
Comments (15)I would sit in that chair. That would be my reading chair because no one can sit down near me and start talking. They would have to sit on the floor or stand, so they wouldn't bother me and it would be glorious. So I would put a big comfy chair with an ottoman and small side table. If no one in your house will use the chair, don't put a chair there. You could maybe add a table with plants on it below the window. Not a bad place for a nice dog bed if you have a dog....See MoreFamily Room Dilemma!
Comments (47)The plant is too close to the wing chair and looks a little awkward on that table. Do you use those nesting tables? I'd prefer to see tables next to the chairs and sofa Do you really need both chairs in the front part of the room? I'd remove the one that is not facing the tv. Yes, coffee table with a stone top...See MoreFamily room redesign DILEMMA

IMO this sunroom might be a good place to have a cupa or read a book so providing a large surface to hold a cup of coffee and lounge in a chair is important.
Everything in this area cannot be beige or it will be too blah, so I have included a comfy swivel lounge chair and patterned rug that pics up the colors in the throw pillows.

If this is your favorite room of all time, copy it. If not, then spend some time on Houzz or on the internet looking at rooms to find some you love. Save them to a living room ideabook. That will give you a direction to go.
