Your room isn't really calling for a bunch of gray but if you do it more charcoal less light.

also you could stand to go to a smaller rug

Then i would consider pulling the sofa off the window wall and centered to the large wall with a sofa table under the window for a lamp

I would loose that end table in favor of a floor lamp and a smaller round table.

I would liven up the rug here is your spot to add some color you can pull from.

Gray is going out, and especially as we are in our homes more color can bring a little energy.

Oh wow thanks rl location ! This looks awesome. Lamp is a great idea. I’ve had a few people mention pulling out the sofa but I’m confused on that one. So there will just be a space for a table but not able to walk back there ? Just confused on how that will look and if it would just take space from the small room?

How long is the long side of the sectional? Have you considered turning it to divide the living area from the dining area? The 3-seat side would be on the wall and the 4-seat side would make a division of the space. A coffee table should be measured according to the longer side of the sofa. I like a rug to slip under the front 1/3 - 1/2 of a sofa and extend past the ends by a foot or so. Try to keep the rug out of the traffic path from the front door. If we could see a pic of the rest of the space, more ideas would come forth.

I was trying to see if I could move the sectional but I think it’s too long to move anywhere else. Wouldn’t leave much space to walk through. Here are some other photos. Getting rid of that huge entertainment center. Thanks!

Look for a coffee table that does double duty. You have a lot of stuff under that table lol

yes pull it off that window wall and yes, either just space or a table. trust me it will feel larger not smaller, and a smaller rug will also help that. you have a lot of dead space to the right. consider shirnking down that entertainment center aswell.

Start by centering the sofa to the tv.

think about entirely getting rid of that unit, just keep the base, maybe you could reuse the end peices as book shelves.

your rug now is nice, but maybe tuck it further under the sofa.

I would start with getting the room layout then move to stuff lol, you might not even need it.

Ha yes njmomma I have a toddler so toys everywhere. So I guess storage is a must !

Is your TV too large to sit on the buffet/wine cabinet? If the wine holders could be removed you could put TV gear there and move it to the front area. I don't care for the visual weight of the bistro set in your space; too heavy, high, bulky and dark. If you can't use the buffet for TV, then get a white tulip table and clear acrylic chairs for dining. That will be a better match for the buffet and won't feel like it blocks up the room. If you only entertain 1-2 times a year, you might just upgrade your bar stools to be more comfortable and eat there, renting a table and chairs when you have a dinner party. Sometimes, it is easier to go out with guests, if it is allowed in your city. You could also put a drop leaf table behind the wing of the sofa that is perpendicular to the wall. Open it up, move it to the center of the space and rent chairs when you need to seat people. The rest of the time it would serve as a sofa table. It wouldn't have to be as large as the ones below, but just for concept. With a smaller footprint for the TV, you should use your longest wall for the sofa, and that might mean flipping the current arrangement.

ok let me see how it looks! That is a great starting point. Happy to hear you are getting rid of the E unit.

If you need storage you could put a sofa table under the window with baskets maybe....

seriously tho you can just lose the bookcase and top around the tv and have a great tv console. at least a starting point.

decoenthusiaste- wasn’t planning on getting rid of bar table yet. Didnt get it too long ago. I also already ordered a wooden tv stand. But after finishing all the other decorating will consider that as well. Thanks for help !!

I had my ex help me move in the rug but still needs to move in some. Is the sofa moved out enough from window ? That’s a good idea with the table and storage! then it will be somewhat hidden and I am having the hardest time finding a round coffee table with storage that I like. I also had already ordered a tv stand a similar size to one there without the towers.

What do you guys think of this coffee table for the room ? Trying to find something to tie the sides of room together. Tv stand will be a grayish distressed wood.

I suggest this grey shaggy rug

That coffee table has no storage.

What makes coffee table baskets practical is that kids can move them away to play. :)

radical opinion? Seems enough interest around hard-eged mirror, what with wood table set on opposite wall. Could buy chair for blue rug [would look finer without contemporary tv unit as you've said... and the mirror, 'sorry']

Hubby and I like these with your art, your room. Contrast with large leaves and bit of shag. The fab up/down window blinds too.

Wont be boring cause you could add textures... kitty scratches/pulls might be hidden in already-carved type of rug... ;)

or this type over warm shade color -- and with your art -- solid rug.

maybe add subtle knit throw/ pillows.

Thanks everdebz! replacing blinds with white ones so don’t need to match them but the floral rugs are really pretty !! Could also do a solid beigeish rug ? was thinking of doing drapes too but will probably wait for blinds to come in first to decide.

decoenthusiaste - yea I am having the hardest time finding an affordable table with good storage that balances the room. Was thinking the under shelf could help and rest can store behind couch.

Maybe a pair of these would work. Add a tray on one of them for setting drinks when you have guests.

Decoenthusiaste - I really like those and wanted leather but I have 2 cats with claws that destroy everything. 🙁 Was thinking maybe rattan tho? need to search more.

Cats don't care what it is; I live with 3 of them inside and 2 outside! Go with something cheap that you won't mind throwing away down the line when they have destroyed it. Maybe you'll find something here...

Any children with you? each could have a basket on bottom of coffee table -- would 6 or 7 inches fit under? W 16" / D 12" / H 7"

or just 2 of these? W 10" / D 8" / H 3"

With rest of open area neutral seems -- why not add pattern. Solid would blend so much with sofa.

This tweed texture comes in many colors - do you happen to like burnt orange? good with beige/browns.

Everdebz- great idea with the baskets

under ! Yes I have a toddler so tons of little toys that I currently have stuffed under my ottoman. For entertainment center, I am getting rid of the whole thing. Ordered a grayish wood one tv stand instead So trying to coordinate my coffee table with that to tie room together. Agree I need some color so thinking of keeping big things neutral and adding in some color with decor. Was thinking coral? Like a faux plant or candles.

Is the sofa centered to where the tv is? that is the best way to make sure its moved far enough.

I see no reason to change that rug it looks great in there, I mean unless you dis like it.

Wait till you get your new tv stand, for now I think the room already looks more pulled together!

I do think curtains would be nice on that window now that there is room to let them hang.,

So far so good!

Not entirely. I can try and move a lil more but running out of space with bar cabinet there. May be able to move stand over closer to door too once the towers are gone. excited about the new space next to window. Going to look in to a table and ways to put storage there !

I think I am going to keep the rug for now and see how everything looks once done.

i was considering curtains too ! Thinking sheer white.

I like that coffee table you have chosen it will tie it indefinitely

Thanks happyleg ! Think I’m going to order a medium brown top though instead to tie in my wood. gray is a little dark.

I see you use weights too, good for you! I've been keeping up with it more lately.

Ottoman and greyish tv unit wouldn't seem at all 'wrong'.

Lol yea living room is new gym now with Covid! I just ordered the table but now concerned I ordered wrong size. My sofa length is 78 in. Not including width of side arm. I ordered a 30 in table. Is this too small? They also have 36 in.

I typed in a few words at the top, and selected "stories' - there are lots of good articles to read... :)

How big is the one you have now, width wise?

thanks !! It’s 39 inches.

I wouldn't bother replacing neutral ottoman that has subtle pattern, with all wood...

seems fine... here's a bright coral I guess --
