Small Living Room as a future Dining Room
Comments (5)"can 11.5 x 16 work for dining?" That's going to be hard for anyone else to answer without seeing your floor plan, because you may need to account for walkways, door swings, etc. (Also we don't know the size and shape of the table you are trying to fit, how many people you want to seat, or if there will be other furniture in the room.) In general, I've seen guidelines of 30" to 48" from table edge to wall, with 30" being the minimum and more being better. Horizontally at least 24" per person with more at the ends (for leg room), and possibly more depending on the size of your chairs and your guests. Create a layout drawn to scale, with your table drawn to scale in it....See MoreHelp! Small, awkward open floor living room furniture placement

Comments (4)You gotta draw it on graph paper, and then cut out pieces the size of an apartment couch, etc., and move them around. My first idea is couch facing windows with a cafe table behind the couch, and TV in the corner. You could also try couch floating with it's back to the fridge wall and bedroom hallway, and a TV on the bottom wall with a dropleaf table there too (chairs on left and top sides). It might be more flexible to try arranging 2-3 small armchairs instead of a couch, as easier to allow walkways and still have a conversational arrangement possible......See Morehelp choosing living room furniture for a small room?
Comments (2)you know how many styles there are, right? you haven't given us any ideas as to what you like. I suggest you look at Casual Boho type of furniture. don't get a sectional Also, look at Article. they have great furniture at a decent price. (I have a few of their items)...See Moremcarroll16
