I would suggest removing the table, lowering the art, and seeing if the table could go on the adjacent wall under the other picture (depending on its length).

I would remove the table for everyday. Something is off with the style compared to the painting. Try it under the other painting.

if you have to keep the table

how about swapping the pictures?

the smaller one with the table. then add a vase, bowl and/or plant on one side.

Let the frame take up 2/3 of the table width.

Then, you will see the larger one from the bar area.

I would remove the table, paint that wall black, and add a funky red bench below.

I think the console table has to be longer to fill up more of the wall space. And I like the idea of painting the wall an accent color to highlight the art. Depending on the depth of the console table, you could also put a couple of ottomans underneath, or possibly a basket.

Furniture shouldn't overlap doorways, even a small amount. It narrows the opening and becomes a hip or knee magnet. Try rotating the table to the wall under the small framed art and consider adding a rug that expresses your style to add softness, texture and color to fill the space.

love that piece.

hate that table tho.

don't care for those rugs either. too distracting

what if you lowered the art and did a velvet bench in one of the art colors?

Or, how about a diff style table w/tucked ottomans?

I like this black oak table. I'd find one that would go wall to wall

Hegan wood console (you could have one made w/red oak and ebonized)

White table, black ottomans

acrylic console

this is too busy looking

needs to be longer. side to side to accomodate the width of your art

Wow interesting ideas you guys thanks! So the table will not fit under the smaller picture, it’s way too long. We actually tried the smaller picture (Tom Petty is my favorite and I wanted to highlight it) on the wall above the table BUT it was way too small…it looked lost on that wall. I agree the table and painting are not the same style. It’s a live edge table and I love it, but I agree it doesn’t really work there, I just have no other place for it ugh! I like the idea of an accent wall, that is pretty cool and just might work. I also like the idea of a fun bench there. Ok I’ll get working.

The art overwhelms the table don't you think?

Beef up the table by placing things under it or get a closed cabinet.

Would you believe the console table and painting is 60”? It seems tiny I know. My new house has very large and tall walls, not complaining but makes it so hard to find decor that fits!

I like the simple black oak table (wall to wall) or a more modern velvet bench. You could try a black/leather bench too, but I think a velvet would be more fitting to that style.

this is 58" Casner console

you could also float a piece of wood across the entire inset area, hard to find the exact pic,

but imagine one of these in your inset spot

darker wood though

you could also do a longer one w/black iron legs (either a shelf or as a bench)

I like the idea of a floating shelf there! I could definitely make that happen with my contractor-wall to walk its 82 inches so it would have to be custom for sure.

look at a live edge black walnut or a red oak that you'd stain a deep black. (I stained my own red oak doors/window trim and casing w/ black aniline dye, and then an ebony gel stain over that for a rich, deep black.

You still get the graining and the character, but the rich black that would look so good against your art/white walls

Love the painting how about just a nice floating shelf strong enough to hold the goodies bit minimal enough to make the painting the star.

I’d have to look for the perfect live edge shape if you’re going to float a shelf there. You don’t want any corners for somebody to hit as they’re passing through that doorway so find a rounded or less pronounced projection on the right side.
Absolutely no benches there… Somebody will sit down and lean against your canvas.

I think you have the right idea, just the wrong application. Your console is simply too rustic for the art. I would do someting contemporary like this. Add two sconces on either side of the art and accessorize with a long metal piece.

Another idea to add to the mix:

If you paint the wall also paint the baseboard.
