lyfia - i followed your recommendation and that actually looks a lot better! and the pup loves her new window seat. i'll post some pictures this evening. i know there are a lot of different chair shapes but i really love all three, and i'd like to make all three work if possible. here are some examples of rooms i think pull together an eclectic look well.

Welcome to Kitchens. You'll need to upload a drawing of the floor plan, with all walls, windows, and doors labeled and measured. Include any architectural elements that can't be moved, and label all adjacent rooms. Drawn on a graph (one square~1' or 6") is better, but not necessary. If you don't have a drawing program, draw it on paper, take a pic, and upload. New to Kitchens? Read me first.

How about using something like this wireless device to have the TV on that wall without cables/outlets? https://techforluddites.com/wireless-cable-tv/ http://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-Connect-Cable-to-a-TV-Wirelessly-/10000000205177691/g.html Also, from the pics it looks like that wet bar area is only 30 inches wide more or less. You would need to leave that much room between the chairs (or sofa) to the windows. That's why I said to ignore it. You and others wouldn't even see it with the doors closed and the furniture layout as shown. It would look natural. I'm sure other posters and also pros will stop in with their solutions. You have a beautiful place with which to work.

It's easy to become attached to furniture. They probably have many great memories of family dinners and holidays around the table. However, a round table, maybe with leaves, would probably fit that space better. Logically, the dining area should be near the kitchen, and the hutch should be in the dining area. But the hutch will look odd next to the fireplace (as noted above). As hard as it may be, they should get rid of the hutch and get a round table. The reality we all face, is that moving means letting go. If they do that, then they can buy new rugs and furniture, for which you've received good suggestions.
