arranging living room furniture w/ front door opens to living room
Comments (2)You might consider moving the sofa to be centered in front of the window and put the chair nearer the door adding a pony wall height bookshelf (with its back to the chair), with or without doors on the entry side, between the chair and the door to create an entry; perhaps something like this: http://thegamersforce.com/ikea-glass-door-bookcase/bookshelf-inspiring-low-bookcase-with-doors-bookcase-with-doors-ikea-dark-brown-bookcase-with-glass-glass-door-ikea-bookcase-singapore-ikea-glass-door-bookcase-ikea-billy-bookcase-glass-door-instruc/ A barrister style bookcase could also work. Such a room divider would give you a place to add a lamp to the room....See MoreHelp arrange living room furniture
Comments (5)I like the 3 stylish ladies for your bedroom. Can't see much about the rest of the art and furniture. Making a guess that the slipcovered sofa is too far gone to keep. Do I see two of the chairs and footstools? They look a bit under-scale for the brown sofa. CraigsList is often a good place to get rid of the overflow and make a bit of money to invest in new pieces. Those chairs (or one of them) might do well for seating in the master bedroom. I think the brown sofa is in the right location. Center it on that wall so guests will be welcomed into the room by it. I would get a piece of art 75% as wide as the sofa to hang 5" above it. Your end table is too tall and not the right style. I'd replace it with a pair of tables and lamps to complete that wall's vignette. Then pick up a coffee table to place 18" or less from the sofa. Then let's see how much space remains. Is TV in the cabinet? If so, that should probably go opposite the sofa. How many do you need to seat in this room? Here's a chart for getting the table and lamp heights right....See MoreHelp with furniture arrangement in long, skinny living room
Comments (137)Quentin, Thank you so much for the pictures! I did not see them until just now. The rooms look great! I see that you brought down the second red chair for the living room. And, put the bookshelf in the room too. That looks much better. Hopefully it works better for you and your family too. The two white chairs together in the front room looks like they work better for you and your family as well. Thank you again for the update. Best Wishes to you and your family, Marcie...See Morehelp arranging living room furniture
Comments (13)I would paint the entire room a warm white, including the fireplace. Romabio can match masonry paint to your wall paint. Increase the depth of the mantel with a beefier piece of rustic wood. Wall mount the TV where you have it now. Drywall the pass through closed and put the sofa there. Add a pair of swivel chairs in the window area. Build a "L" bench in the dining nook and use a pedestal table with a couple of extra chairs that can be pulled over to the seating area. Replace your coffee table with an upholstered bench (maybe with storage inside.) Top it with a tray and it can also be used for extra seating....See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
