Lake House Living Room/ Dining Room Furniture Help
I'm looking for thoughts on how to furnish the very open floorplan of our new lake home. We'd like to keep it somewhat "beachy or coastal" in theme. Casual but not too messy (couch structure). We like the color pallate of the stone in firepalce so working with those colors as accents would be great. We'd love to get some blues in there a bit more. Thinking of staying with neutral couches but maybe a patterened accent chair? The photos are how the current owners have it set up. We will be starting from scratch with furniture for this area. Weve found a dining table that we love but not chairs. We'd like to keep the chair back height low so as not to interfere with the view. My husband also preferrs a bench on one side of the table if possible but not a deal breaker. For the remaining chairs we'd like something padded perhaps? Do we do a colored fabric? Does the table selection work with flooring color? We would plan to add a rug under dining table.
This area also flows right into the kitchen

Dining Chair (none of the wood options seem great. Also unsure of fabric color. Something along the style of this chair is what we were looking at. https://www.potterybarn.com/products/layton-upholstered-dining-chair/?pkey=cdining-chairs

Comments (3)Thanks for the suggestions, Nancy! Putting the dining table on the side like that helps with the "choke point" that we currently get between the table and wall in the centre of the room. Any suggestions for what you would do with the extra space towards the kitchen, since the dining table is no longer in that space? I agree about the bench: We were thinking about getting this table: https://ca.transformertable.com/pages/the-dining-set which has a matching extending bench to go along the window. I don't want any built in units on the ends because I want to be able to extend the table across the majority of the room when a lot of company is over....See MoreLake Home Help - Living Room

Furniture placement in a strangely shaped living and dining room
Comments (15)It's easy to become attached to furniture. They probably have many great memories of family dinners and holidays around the table. However, a round table, maybe with leaves, would probably fit that space better. Logically, the dining area should be near the kitchen, and the hutch should be in the dining area. But the hutch will look odd next to the fireplace (as noted above). As hard as it may be, they should get rid of the hutch and get a round table. The reality we all face, is that moving means letting go. If they do that, then they can buy new rugs and furniture, for which you've received good suggestions....See MoreFurniture arrangement help for rectangular living/dining room are
Comments (25)Update on my living room: Thank you so much for the suggestions on the previous pictures. It helped me tremendously to get an idea of what I have done so far. I just received my sofa after 5 months of patiently waiting. This was the hardest part. I'd really appreciate your ideas for this living room/ diningroom. We need to add accent chairs, coffee table, console table/a built-in shelf for the tv. I took everyone's advice here and our tv will go to the opposite wall from the sectional sofa. I'm struggling with the color scheme for the decor, accent chairs, accessories, side table, etc for the coffee table I really liked to have a nesting round, but I'm not sure if it would be too big for the space we have. Since we have a live edge dining table, it's difficult for me how to choose other furniture pieces. ps For the dining table I bought 4 chairs and was thinking I'll include two different color chairs. I had to return one char and keep three because two chairs were not fitting on both longer sides of the table. So, I decided to get a bench for the empty side instead. I hope my explanation is clear and not vague or confusing. Thank you in advance....See MoreRelated Professionals

last yearHere’s a few items that would suit this space beautifully. If your TV will remain over the fireplace, I would incorporate black in your artwork so that the black screen fits into the scheme. I included the throw pillow because if you find one you love it can really help define your color palette.
