I find that you have too many open, leggy, brass and glass pieces. Etagere, floor lamp, end tables, coffee table and accent table. I suggest you eliminate all of them but the coffee table and the shelf. Your end tables are too low for the sofa arms, so why not replace them and the lamps on them with a pair of floor lamps? Move the sofa to the shelf wall and put the shelf opposite the windows. Eliminate the majority of the pillows on the sofa. Consider some new ones in softer colors or patterns. Your wall items are too small, with little impact the way they're displayed. Use the three starburst mirrors vertically between the windows. The middle one should be centered 5' above the floor with the other two one hand's width above and below it. Get a large piece of art you love and hang it 5" above the sofa. The two pieces flanking the shelf might do stacked or side by side on the wall to the right of the entry. Style the etagere with several big, impactful pieces or a collection. Maybe the vase between the windows would be nice on the coffee table and could set the color way/tone for items on the etagere.

The mirrors don't work above couch. Art 3/4 length of couch 6 inches above couch. Add pillows from art colors. Add a throw.

I agree with Deco. I think that you need some wooden tables. I would also replace the etagere with a wooden bookcase.

In a small space, those open pieces can evoke a less cluttered vibe so it was a good instinct.

How you use your light and table matters. Personally, I'd want my lamp light higher (for reading) and the end tables reachable from the sofa so I could set my book and/or eyeglasses and/or ice tea on a coaster by my side rather than needing to lean forward to the coffee table ... but to each their own.

You do already have an open shelving unit but with those high arms on that sofa, unless you can find a lamp/table combo unit with the right height "table",

a different kind of shelving might be the only way each person sitting on the end of the sofa could reach a table/shelf.

and move your light higher, too.

If you like the mirrors above the sofa, keep them ... but you might at least consider moving them around.

You could lower each of them but a better idea might be to rearrange them into a triangle shaped grouping or a stair step grouping (in line diagonally) and have them flanked by other items -- perhaps a couple of framed pictures or modern box shelving. (You could leave the center one where it is and put the other two below and to the side of it if you want to form a triangle with them.)

I think you have a really nice start. As Deco noted, there's a lot of leg in the room and the color palette is breezy, so giving the room some "bottom" could work well for you.

I'd like to see that back wall wall become a true focal point - with some presence. Consider a console against that wall topped with a lamp and art that moves you. The art can guide you to your accent colors.

Here are a couple of bone leather club chairs that would compliment your current furnishings. Note the brass nail head detail that ties to the metal finishes you have. The art is, of course, personal - but you can see how this particular piece could be a spring board for a myriad of accent colors.

Mix up the three urchins on the wall…bring over the floor lamp.

When you get the two new chairs, used the end tables for them.

As for the long wall, I honestly don’t care for anything there. The etagere isn’t large enough for the wall, and it is adding way too much glass for the room. Try it in the hallway.

With everything gone on that wall, add a wide console and the two lamps I see in your photo and art over top.

I love these ideas. We just moved and sadly have a limited budget though. What would make a big impact for minimal cost?

I am am thinking a large art piece above the sofa with more neutral pillows, moving the starbursts vertically between the windows. Simplifying the decor on the bookcase too. My fiancé’s going to freak with all the new nail holes

I need to work with the bookcase and coffee table, but can probably swap those end tables. It’s too much Glass definitely.

Those two paintings are from my favorite artist Janet Hill. I’d like to keep them in the room but could move them to the slanted wall and maybe even add an art light to them?

Any other ideas?

When you get a rug , pick a color from rug for wall art and pillows. I would move your favorite arts between the windows vertically.

The back wall is way too important to simply place the etagere alone. Here are some layout options for the room.

Depends of furniture layout, you would probably need a rectangular coffee table.

I would go with rectangular coffee table in this layout

So this is what I ended up with. I still need to work on the back wall and the bookcase decor. I think the art is too small there. I really want crown molding but that’ll be awhile. How’s it looking? Any other ideas?
