congrats on your new condo! she is lovely in and out. Well, I am sure we could help you make the inside look more like the outside. but i have to say the inside looks just like newly built houses. so that is more your choice i think. and perhaps you just want to use what you have and add a few pieces that will give you more of the look you want, but it does not have to match the exterior. you mentioned a lot of pics from around the world, I am guessing you want to know how to use. I have collected some idea. the one thing that is universal is using the same color frames. you can use varied but you have to have more skills to make it work.in a black frameanother external frame main subject in center bits of subject around.this is a set of family pics in a format.

Hey Amberleys! You have a really lovely open space, if this was my own home I would move the sofa so that it partitions the dining room and living area, facing the french doors so that you can relax while admiring your garden. You can then place an entertainment unit or large sideboard against the wall where your sofa currently is, you can get some really pretty ones which you can place your CD's into and stereo on top. An old farmhouse display would look lovely - depends all on what kind of style you like. I would then place the playpen in the corner where your stereo is at the moment when not in use and a storage unit for toys against the same wall - Ikea have some really great units for toy storage. I hope your able to find a furniture piece that suits you soon so you can have a lovely place to relax! - Jessica P.S I have added a few ideas below: [Wooden Industrial Sideboard[(https://www.houzz.com/products/delta-industrial-4-door-sideboard-with-lower-shelf-prvw-vr~119406508?lid=89713568) [Wooden Storage Bench[(https://www.houzz.com/products/natural-piper-3-drawer-3-basket-bench-cabinet-prvw-vr~119406640?lid=89713694) [Miami Beach Mirrored Sideboard[(https://www.houzz.com/products/miami-beach-mirrored-sideboard-prvw-vr~119406212?lid=89713288) [Harvey Grey Sideboard[(https://www.houzz.com/products/harvey-grey-3-drawer-sideboard-prvw-vr~119338961?lid=89645588)

So many good suggestions so far my head is spinning. kristy, since you seem to be settling in on what you are liking so far with building in bookshelves... could you maybe post a new sketch of the room? Even use your original measurement sketch, just pencil in where you are thinking you are liking shelves going in. If you go with the fill the book nook to match the fireplace, the TV kind of has to stay on the same wall with low shelves under it. If you go with all low shelves, it opens up your options for where a TV can go. If you add in bookshelves, that will likely eat up a lot of budget and be more permanent.

Place the longer sofa facing the TV. It makes the most sense for viewing the TV. I would place a console behind the sofa with its back to what i assume is the entrance. Place the two slipper chairs side by side where the sofa is in front of the window .
