Help me with furniture layout - awkward living room in RENTAL
Comments (3)Could you split this room into two areas, couch (though this one may be too big) and tv in the window nook area and then a pair of sitting chairs near the fireplace?...See MoreBrighten and improve drab rental living room
Comments (18)I think it is just a matter of striving for better balance in the room. The two bookcases counter balance the fireplace nicely, but they could use a coat of happy paint. I'd like to see the fireplace focal point clearly visible from the entrance. I'm thinking I'd change the cherry red pillows and 80's lamps for new ones. The right color for the pillows and bookcases could add a lot more happy to the space. You have two tables that seem pretty useless and too tall to work with any of the seating. Do I see a bench in the foyer? I'm thinking the tall writing table would look good there, unless the bench is needed for removing shoes and boots. It may be a winter thing and you can change it out in summer. I'd want to see the clock on the wall where the tall table and art are. Hang a piece of art centered 5' above the floor right of the bookcases. Would the cedar chest work as a bench at the foot of his bed? TV is too wide for the TV stand, but putting it on the chest looks "make do" and doesn't enhance anything. Looks like his chair is a swivel rocker, so it can be moved and still view the TV from almost anywhere. If it fits, I'd try the sofa floating out in front of that wall behind his chair and move the two chairs. Pink one right of the FP and blue one directly between the bookcases and FP. Of course, it will have to clear the coffee table. If you replace any tables use the chart below to get the height right for the seating....See MoreHow to modernize an old-looking rental living room
Comments (3)The lighter, cool grey tones are moving out in favor of warmer tones, so your rental is actually more "today" than you think. I would choose mostly light furniture in the living room area. You can layer neutral tones of grey, taupe and brown. You have plenty of brown in the cabinets, so add brown only in touches in the living area....See MoreI need with decorating the living room in my new rental!
Comments (4)Here are some pictures from different angles! I plan on living here for hopefully the next 4 years. The sectional and the curtains belonged to the previous tenant so I'm planning on getting new ones. The wall looks black in the picture but it's actually a deep brown. As for the carpet, I'm thinking layering it with rugs until it's mostly covered. Would that work?...See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
