I would like to see a big square upholstered ottoman on wheels or a large square medium colored wood table with storage drawers. Is there a square table (or a triangular shaped table) that would coordinate with the round ones? Maybe not an exact match but a color and style that is close. That's what I would put on the other side of the sofa. Leave the sofa and chairs where they are. They are in a good position.

Should I just leave the wall above the sofa bare? And the sofa looks okay with it not being centered with the wall behind it? Something is going to be off centered, I just want to make sure I pick the one that isn't to hard on the eyes. This is the coffee table I was leaning towards and those dimensions are marked on the carpet in blue. I like the idea of an upholstered ottoman, but most of them are leather and I don't think that would go well with the leather chairs. Then the ones that are fabric, I can't seem to find a color or pattern that I'm in love with since they are so expensive!!!

No, you need art over the sofa. Maybe something fun and contemporary and colorful since everything else is so neutral.

I still think you should do a square coffee table or ottoman. I bet someone on here could tell you how to make your own ottoman with casters. Or maybe you could find one at a good price and recover it with a fabric you like.

I guess I never thought about a square ottoman/coffee table. I was always thinking rectangular in front of the sofa, I will have to mark it on the carpet and see.
So for the art, say for instance, I buy a rectangular piece do I center it with the sofa or with the wall?

Center the art on the sofa

I would move the end table to the other side of the sofa and move the sofa down again. You may be able to put a floor lamp on the side by the window.

I know you are going to kill me, but have you considered switching the location of the chairs and the couch? Seems like the side where the chairs are now would be a better fit for the couch, less restricted by the angle, and the angled wall on the other side would kind of flow better with the two chairs that are already sitting on angles.

I think that perhaps then you could put a sofa table and lamps behind the couch and skip the coffee table so that there would be a more open feeling for the whole seating space.

Once you switch them, I think you would also see that it would create options on the big wall for a collection of art, ledge shelving, etc that wouldn't be dependent on centering to one large piece of furniture.

So, here are some pictures with switching the furniture around per les917 suggestion. I'm still having a hard time situating the furniture along the wall with the angle, so I figured I would take some pics and see what you guys think. Now, the end tables don't have to stay at all. I bought them off of CL and I think I could get my money back if we can't make them work in the room. The chairs and the couch have to stay because those where bought brand new. Thanks for the help!!!

dd50- With moving the sofa back down, I too was definitely thinking about putting a floor lamp there or something tall on the other side of the couch next to the window. But if I put a coffee table in front of the couch I thought something looked off because the furniture facing each other aren't centered. For instance, in the second photo I have the blue tape on the carpet with the dimensions of a coffee table. Now if I move the couch down you see the coffee table will have to move closer to the fireplace about 1 foot. Do you think that would look okay? Maybe I don't need a coffee table/ottoman?

Okay here is another layout. The only thing that I am worried about that it seems to make the room look smaller or maybe it is just me. I was thinking I could put a little rectangular table/buffet in between the chair and the window with a lamp. I think that could work in the sense that I could put a large piece of artwork or a couple smaller one on the wall and a coffee table/ottoman in front of the couch. I'm just not sure what looks visually better.

The last setup is nice. I would put a tall palm tree (next to window) to right of leather chair as you look at chairs. I might pull sofa out from window about 12". Now the rectangular coffee table will work.

I really do like the couch and chairs flipped. I would move the couch forward so that the front edge of the couch lines up with the left hand moulding on the window. I think the round table works there, pulled forward too, of course.

I prefer the two chairs moved closer to the fireplace as they are in the first set of pix. Angle them a bit more and move them closer together with the table so that they fit pretty well on the straight part of the wall. Then consider adding a small bench or ottoman to sit against the angled wall right below the stair railing above. That can be extra seating if needed. If you get an ottoman, people seated on the couch could also use it for a footrest or as a coffeetable.

I really would not add a coffeetable in the room - I don't think you need it, and I think it might be awkward if you leave the second arrangement of chairs. If you go back to the first arrangement I referenced for the chairs, then you could add a coffeetable. I would make it mostly glass so that it doesn't take up too much visual space.

I would keep the round tables, as I think they break up all the angles and echo the demilune windows nicely.

A sofa table would be my first choice behind the couch, with lamps. Otherwise, a low bookcase or rectangular planter on a stand would work once the couch is pulled forward.

I think I am leaning more towards the chairs closer to the fireplace because I think it looks less awkward also. Les917, I moved the sofa out some more and I tried to put the chairs/table closer together so they would fit completely on the straight wall as much as I could without them looking squished together. The problem is that I think the chair by the window is too close and it feels like when you are sitting there that you are up against the wall. Also when you look at the whole room together, It doesn't make good conversation flow ( for lack of a better word), when one side of the room's furniture is closer to the fireplace than the other. I hope I took good enough pictures to demonstrate this.

Would you ever consider painting the fireplace wall to add one more color to the room and lots more impact? From the lovely painting you could choose a dark purple or green, I prefer the purple for drama and then add a rug and one or two pillows with texture that pick up a shade of the wall color. I'd also look for a throw with a texture to fold over the couch. The room is starting to look very good with all the suggestions so far. If you really think you need a coffee table then how about a narrow bench so as to leave the space more open.

I could see how painting the fireplace would add an impact, but that scares me to death to paint over the wood. I plan on changing all the pillows that are there now, if I could ever get that far with decorating this room, and I hope to add a lot of color with pillows and other art/decor.
I'm not quite sure I need a coffee table for in front of the couch either. I guess I just thought I would, and then today moving all the furniture around I thought maybe I don't need a coffee table. I like the idea of a bench or an ottoman that could have multiple purposes that could maybe sit adjacent to the chair on the angle wall or even the railing.

No No, I meant paint the fireplace wall, not the fireplace. LOL

Oh my goodness, that is so funny how I miss read that!!!! I do plan on repainting the room when I figure out the color scheme. This is the color the room was when we moved in.

Hi, kmallen - I like the idea of a coffee table in front of the couch, but how about using two smaller square tables set side-by-side to make a rectangular table shape? That way, it's not too visually heavy for the space and would echo the two matching black chairs.

Also, the red pillows on the black chairs are a nice splash of gorgeous color - can you repeat that red when you find artwork for over the chair wall?

I really like the new couch and chairs setup that Les suggested. I think I would like to see the couch and chairs both moved about 12" or so farther from the walls and window. I also really like your new round tables.
