Comments (6)ma - Yes, sorry about the confusion. The floor plan I shared doesn't show that, but this bar is part of the kitchen. The other side of the bar has the kitchen sink, dishwasher, and storage drawers. With that in mind, it seems like our main option is changing furniture and moving it around, or making a different use of the space under the bar (built-in bookshelf?).

Comments (16)It bothers me when David Visentin says "Dining room area" to describe a room with four walls. He likes to call most rooms "areas" instead of spaces. The term "Open concept" originated in England, I think, and quickly spread to Canada, where Love It or List It originated. I still use the term "open floor plan" instead, which has a longer history. And why do people say "dining room table" instead of "dining table"? In the furniture industry, we never used the term "dining room table". That could refer to any table that happens to be in a dining room. It is similar to people saying "hot water heater" instead of "water heater". You are heating water, you are not heating water that is already hot....See Morehelp choosing living room furniture for a small room?

Comments (26)Hi. No reason you cannot create a to scale floor plan now. Any decision in the living room needs to be done in conjunction with the new plan for the porch. (where door openings are positioned are important). 2 love seats are not functional. They are not facing the tv and adults that are not a couple don't like sitting in them. The best arrangement is always a sofa and 2 chairs. Having said that, if, for some reason you love having a chaise, then the argument could be made for that. I recommend a removable chaise for future flexibility. If you really don't have guests or it is seldom, you could use only the sofa in the room and bring in extra chairs for when guests visit....See More- Katrina_with_a_t thanked Mae Day Organizing and Interior Design
