Please help! What furniture do I need for my living room?
Comments (6)Agree with above and I'd get rid of the bookcase. It's too low for the space. Have tall bookcases built in to the ceiling and also a library ladder to reach the ones on top. I think you can use 2 sofas and perhaps 2 chairs as well, if they're the right ones. That sofa MUST be pulled away from that wall - looks totally wrong there and blocks the kitchen entrance....See MoreLiving room redecorating. need help making my room look cozy and inter
Comments (8)Center the sofa on the far wall (where the TV currently is) and put the end tables on each side. Get matching table lamps (26"-30" tall) for the end tables. You can put a larger piece of art over the sofa. This will address the immediate focal point as you enter this room. Keep the loveseat where it currently is, centered on the wall between the windows (if there's enough room when you move the sofa). Place the coffee table in front of it. If you need to scooch it down a bit that's fine, but I generally like to try centering off of architectural features first. You're looking at an arrangement something like this: You can then purchase a TV cabinet/console that will go on the wall opposite the loveseat. There might then be enough room to get a pretty side chair to angle in to the seating area. With this arrangement, you address conversation needs and also TV viewing. I wouldn't do an accent wall. Just keep all of your paint light and neutral. The carpet you have is pretty ... if you like it keep it. It looks as if you've already pulled some colors from it for your throw pillows. I would remove your valances, you don't need them with your fabric shades. Pretty furniture and a nice start to your room!...See MoreUpdated: "Help me decorate my living room - Desperate help needed!"
Comments (1)I see a few things that aren’t horrible, by any means, but could be changed. Mirror and sideboard, for instance, as mirror is too large for the sideboard and it overwhelms the room, reflecting the t v. Try the art over the sideboard and add a floor lamp where the plant is, as it will do double duty for the sofa and the art. Have you ever thought about adding a floor to ceiling strip of trim to separate the dining area from the living area and painting that wall a color? Something like this with a couple of white shelves on that wall?...See MorePlease help with my living room. I need to create an style balance
Comments (20)Let's begin in the foyer, and let me know what you think about these ideas. How about exchanging the table and mirror for a shoe cubby similar to this? it holds 12 pair of shoes and is about 25" wide and 27" high. Then hang a tall slim mirror above it to draw more light from the window into the dark foyer. I love your blue art! Do you want to continue with that blue as an accent? How about adding another color that is its compliment; thinking orange for a pop. This contemporary rug is 6 x 9 so it would be slim enough for the space you have available between the armoire and the sofa. Just place the front feet of the sofa on it and I think it will work. You can tape it out with painter's tape to see how it might fit. Continue to mix your styles with an IKAT pillow featuring the colors. Here's a solid you can have monogramed Not sure you really have room for a coffee table, but this bench could float in front of the window between the two built-ins. You could move your chair left of the sofa, floating to face the window. Here's a mirroor that is slim enough for over the shoe cubby and tall enough too. The pattern adds another layer of interest....See MoreRelated Professionals
