We have an area like that too that I used to call "The Black Hole," because of the dark floor and the TV being on the wall.

I have an area rug in the back of the room (the sofa floats) so I added another one in the area between the wall and sofa. It made a huge difference. Sometimes I set a child's chair or decorative footstool in front of the coffee table and it makes it look like a nice conversation area.

It would be helpful to see more of your space. You can add more pics, but just one per post (all in this thread as replies to your first post). If it says Message Rejected, then slightly change the Subject, by adding a 1 or a 2 after Living Room.

Or you can put them all on photobucket (or other free hosting site) then copy and paste the HTML codes all into the same post (so they'll all be together).

Thanks for answering,I'll add another photo but will have to get photo bucket for sure.

I hope you'll get your photos on a web hosting site so we can get a better perspective. I think having them in the same post, right side up will help people see them and come up with ideas. I suspect, like me, many find it difficult to see them because they are sideways. Too hard to see.

Ohhh,so sorry,I don't see them sideways here. Thanks again

It might help too if you draw a floor plan of the room. you can do it online easily with a planner such as icovia.

I have a similar area in my living room, and oddly enough, my foyer is shaped just like yours.

From what I can see....(with the pictures sideways)...could you put a padded bench or ottoman in front of the picture window and then float your chair toward your love seat with the legs of the chair on the edge of the rug. End table would serve both the chair and your couch. Put a few plants around the window bench/ottoman. You could put a runner in the "gang plank area" if you wanted to..
