I need help and suggestions since I am redoing our family room. We recently added a fireplace and I want to buy some new couches, or sectional and or chairs!! I really can't make up my mind or make a commitment- I like the open airy look - we do love to watch TV and lounge. With the new television being up so high it is nice to be back further to watch TV. My husband pretty much lays on the couch to watch TV. Maybe I could change that LOL. I like the look of the matching sofas which is what I had previously (the dog ate one of them in a recent anxiety attack while locked inside the house ) but in our living room I can't put them across from each other very well because it affects the layout and natural flow from the kitchen. I put the two sofas at right angles previously but now wonder if I should get a sectional instead. I'm scared to do this because I know it limits my options. I've also always had a couch against the wall of windows and feel that leaving it there with just one or two chairs in front would love too stark. Currently we have a hodgepodge of chairs to fill the space until we get some new furniture. I want to choose a later sand color and I'm thinking about adding a light colored rug as well. You can see from the before remodel picture that I did have a large fluffy white rug and the2 sofas . Please help! I'm open to ideas and suggestions as I can't make up my mind
