Hi, your selection look great. Personally, I love the boucle chair. I think boucle chair with the grey sofa accented with a nice coffee table and a rug would look great. In the end, it all depends on how big and open is your space and what kind of flooring is used.

something light weight with exposed legs would be a nice compliment.

yes, I saw that. benjes, I didn't mean to suggest that your comment was for just me. I did suggest she move the photos, I just didn't say 'they don't belong'. I'm on the fence with it. If one doesn't have any worthy art, and the family photos are done in a way that look good, coordinate w/one another and properly sized, then I suppose you could do it. But for over the sofa, I still prefer one or two large pieces of actual art. or a mirror. and I'm loving this danish chair w/the teal cushions

IMO the bakers rack doesn’t work in the space at all I would do 2 chairs in a fabric that works with the sofa and the rug . I am a bit confused since it appears there are 3 sofas in the space and what are the flowered pieces ? Maybe take some pics from further back that show the whole space. I don’t see any end tables and I do see a lot of clutter like for instance the fairy lights on the railings and all the stuff in the DR and on the bakers rack . It is really hard to get a feel for the space so please better pictures for sure.

I also agree that a sectional might not be the best choice, plus they do become a hassle when you move and they dont work in the next place. And I also agee that cozy chairs can be better money spent than a big sofa. This room askes for smaller stuff. I would get a big rug, couch two chairs long console and offset the tv to the left. then you could slightly create and entry way and a more clear path to that small hallway.

Love the channel tufted sofa. Would look great with that boucle chair. If the chair is boucle, I'd do the sofa in a different fabric for a bit more contrast.

unless your living room looks like your inspo pix, I'd just get the boucle chair IT will be your wow accent.

a simple sofa like your grey option, the channeled sofa doesn't look too comfortable with the high arms... unless the space is just for show

These aren’t exactly like your examples, but thought I’d share for fun anyway. I saw this thread earlier, then was on Instagram later … this was on my ’explore’ page and reminded me of your post —

I’m not suggesting do this, just thought it was a coincidence (well, more likely I’m being tracked by IG). 😄
