living room arrangement with a tv and fireplace
Comments (5)I'm assuming the fireplace wall has no windows although it seems odd that such a long wall would have no windows if it is an outside wall. I would build cabinets on either side of the fireplace and house the TV in one of them, and make the other one a book case. I would put the couch facing the fireplace with the club chair at an angle next to it on the TV side. Hopefully there will be another chair at some time for the other side of the couch. You could have a narrow table behind the couch with decorative items on it to lessen the impact of the couch when you walk in from one of the doorways. There should be end tables at each end of the couch and of course a coffee table in front of it. If you put the TV between the doorways the couch will back onto the fireplace which would look rather odd, especially since furniture should be grouped around the main focus of the room, which is usually the fireplace. There could be chairs with small tables or perhaps a love seat near the windows at the short ends of the room for ancillary sitting areas. It would be nice to have photos of your room to get a better idea of your layout. Good look in solving this situation....See MoreLiving Room Furniture Placement for th Uneven Alcoves Large Bay Window
Comments (2)I would take some painters tape and square off the room. The bay window side and the alcove side and use the square area for furniture placement. I would hold off on buying a sectional until you are absolutely certain it will work. Most often a sofa and chairs is a better purchase...See MoreLiving Room Layout with Bay Window?
Comments (7)The first two dilemmas here....window treatments that will offer,privacy and cut off the light if you ever wish to watch tv during the day...and creating a “ foyer space” at the front door..it is difficult to tell the length of the space from the photos and hard to advise without seeing your furniture as to how this can be done.. but in theory a separate foyer space would be a nice separation in such a long room....and using an end wall for the tv will lessen the importance of the curtains needing to cut out all light that will glare and reflect on the tv.....See MoreTV placement Challenge!
