My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Design Dilemma

Awkward Livingroom Shape

14 years ago
Please Help!!!

I am starting to design our new living room. The shape is awkward and I do not know where to place furniture and tv area. I was thinking about mounting the tv over the fireplace, but a sectional would be really far away if placed on the opposite wall and there would be a ton of open space in the middle of the room.

Attached is a rough sketch of the room.

If you have any suggestions, please respond.

Thank you!!!
