need help with very small living room
Comments (0)Fireplace with TV above it is focal point. Want contemporary, clean line recliners for two people and couch. Problem is the room is tiny. In photos I have an 80” couch, the smallest of the reclining stressless chairs and a recliner that’s 33” wide and 32” deep. We found a recliner we like and to see if two would fit we cut paper to size and put our existing chairs over it. You can see they would be too large. Maybe we should have a couch with chaise? One recliner? Don’t know. Open to any ideas....See Moresmall formal living room ideas
Comments (30)Thanks for the extra pics. That gives a much better sense of the space. Your furniture is beautiful, but I would scooch the chairs as close to the sofa as possible without making it claustrophobic, to give as much walk space around as possible. Perhaps the bar cart can go under the window next to the front door. That coffee table is wayyyyyyy too large. You might get a decent price at a consignment store, but it really throws the room off. On the wall opposite the sofa, I'd hang one huge piece of art. The art you have there now is hung way too high. (Not a fan of the bright turquoise in the other room.)...See MoreKitchen island as only dining? Ideas for small kitchen/living room?
Comments (3)I don’t know if you ever finished your kitchen, but in case you did not, and in case others come across this thread, I thought I would tell what we did. We remodeled our kitchen using a 24 year-old high end kitchen from a kitchen charity reseller (Green Demolitions). It had a huge island that I could fit into our space if we did not have a kitchen table. I have lifelong knee problems and could hardly rise off a regular chair height, so moving to 24” kitchen stools sounded like a solution. We went with the island, with space for four to comfortably sit. It turns out that my knees don’t much like sitting on stools, either. We are a family of two and take our meals in our recliners, anyhow. The issue became how to have people over and sit comfortably. Then I discovered convertible furniture of Italian design! They make coffee tables that rise up on scissor legs to dining height with tops that swivel 90 degrees and open like a book, doubling their size. There are other designs as well, all creating full size dining tables. We found a leather sofa at Macy’s that has a seat height of 20” and we keep our old dining chairs in the basement to bring out when people visit. Our family room is now easily and quickly converted to a dining room with banquette seating. Here is where I got our table. If you live near NYC there are local choices, too. https://expandfurniture.com...See MoreIdeas for a big "dead" corner in small living room
Comments (14)I can't help but notice the following: The square tiles and a border at the entrance door are kind of odd. Why not just replace them with the same flooring just like that of the bigger part of the room? If the middle of the art works are at most's eye level and they take up about 2/3 of the width of the sofa, then they should be fine. I would like to see the window with a floor to ceiling cream sheer curtain to brighten up the room. A palm plant at the very corner. A wooden brown solid round table with height higher than the arm rest of the sofas. A table lamp with round cover. Cream fabric seat covers for both sofas....See Morekfriday
