You have no living room ideabook. Start there. There are millions of living rooms on Houzz and on the internet. Save your favorites, narrow it down to one or two, copy what you see.

First thing I'd do here is reverse the room so the TV is opposite the windows. Put a sofa facing it with enough room behind to walk to the door, another sofa or couple of chairs perpendicular to the first sofa, big art on the wall with the door.

Use colors in the art to inform your rug and accessories.

You could do a sectional or two sofas like this with the TV on the end wall.

First I would make a statement with couple of nice chairs or sofa, or couple sofas.Then move from this further with area rug, coffee table, decor...

Celery, I don't like the traffic path in front of the TV. How about flipping the whole room so the TV is opposite the windows?

Ahhh, Grover you think it is right to have TV across the window? What about reflection?

Sorry, have to leave now. I can do some ideas later.

Thank you both! I’m intrigued by the idea of having the tv across from the windows.

If it helps, we are planning on installing cellular shades this weekend and adding curtains down the road once we figure out the furniture.

Groveraxle, if we have the tv on the back wall, do you think we could put a book shelf on the wall between the two windows or no?

An arrangement that keeps traffic out of the conversation area:

I like the idea of having TV on back wall. As for shelving, get sitting furniture first and then you would see if you have enough room for walking way and shelving.

You still can have your shelving on a side of TV

Your room is narrow, may be you do not have to load side walls, but back. And I like Groves idea to keep side walking ways.

I really like the idea of a book shelf on that back wall. Makes the room feel less narrow.
