hello tfudim,like your new furniture,and think that you might want to look for a bigger coffeetable and a rug, maybe swap the bookcase and piano over,and re-arrange the art above the fireplace by putting the long one in the middle...could you get some blinds for the windows,then you can keep the panels but block the light out much better..the color seems fine to me with the sofa and chairs

I would turn those 2 chairs facing away from fireplace. Position chairs in front of fireplace but put at an angle facing sofa. That will give a more inviting feel to the room. I also suggest getting rid of that wooden piece on wall. You can also put down a simple area rug to cozy up the space.

I would also suggest omitting the picture above fireplace with a mirror. See below how I think you should space plan your room

I love your furniture, but I am feeling your fireplace focal wall need to be the focus. If the large bookcase could move elsewhere, perhaps symmetrical bookcases on each side of the fireplace would provide balance and height. A beefier mantel, or perhaps painting the trim surrounding it a darker color would help. Also, I agree with adding a lovely area rug and interesting coffeetable.

Howdy, I can't see what is happening on the irght hand side of the room opposite the windows. From what it appears, the most appropriate furniture placement is the sofa backed to the windows and the chairs side by side directly opposite. If you can, like was said here already, use a larger cocktail table.
An oval or round would be good to consider. You'd want to keep the table slightly over proportioned to the sofa but not bigger than it. It looks like the sofa is about 85" long so a good size table in the center of the room would be 48" - 54" long x 30" deep. As far as the remaining items go I'd encourage you to rethink the windows. Because they appear to be pretty large they are an opportunity to expand the visual size of the room. Individual shades flanked by beefier side panels would be cool. Maybe Bamboo or Matchstick shades will give you more oomph. Drapes could be awsome in one of the colors from the chairs, or, White would be a strong addition. White Linen or a woven cotton/poly would work. I agree with the location of the bookcase being changed too.

I was going to say what Jeffrey said. I would either find a different pic above the fp or maybe change the set up with the large one turned the other direction, in the middle and place the other two on each end. Remove the white round object. Your furniture is very nice.

Remove the book case and put the chairs in front of the window and the couch across them

I would move the bookcase to the wall adjacent to the piano (not where the piano is, but at a right angle to it). Is there enough room to use the piano as a sofa table?
Take the narrow picture and move it off to one side of the fireplace; move the other two off to the other side, stacked vertically;then put a large piece above ( I've successfully used dark thin branches from the backyard arranged diagonally and hung like a picture for cheap but nice and large impact). You probably could fit your plate under the branch for balance. Also like someone else said, paint the fireplace surround dark brown. I like your coffee table. Just buy another one or two to group together. I would warm up the wall color-it looks peach to me, maybe something in the khaki family darker shade. Then a fuzzy rug. I'm ok with the furniture placement, but others suggestions are good too. Good luck and post a pic of your final decision!

I would change your coffee table to a light colored wood rather than the glass and metal and larger. Perhaps something like a sisal rug. For the drapes as others have noted, to the floor and a heavier fabric either linen or cotton or cotton blend. For the mantel area, I would bring the two smaller pictures down to the level of the base of the larger picture and then on the other side, where the plate is, a larger piece of art, with some of the brown earth tone colors in the present plate, which I think is too small. As others have mentioned, would paint the surround of the fireplace a darker color. If didn't want to do that and amenable to painting the brick, I think another option might be keeping the white surround and whitewashing the brick.

I think I would back up the sofa a bit and arrange the chairs on an angle on either side of the fireplace as was suggested up thread. I would lose the bookcase completely. Drop the curtain rod a bit so the curtains fall closer to the floor and add wood blinds. I would probably also consider painting the fireplace brick white and adding a light area rug and a nice coffee table or ottoman. Your furniture and room are lovely!
Good luck~

If you play that instrument, get it to an interior wall, even if in another room. Exterior walls, drafts, etc are bad for piano's health. A rug and larger coffee, some art, and an accent color are in order. Can the bookcase be moved to a wall opposite the FP? Then the chairs can become part of the focal wall arrangement. Tackle the window treatments once the furniture placement is decided.

I'd get two white bookshelves on either side of the fireplace - low, lower than the height of the trim around the fireplace. Even if one is out front a little because of the baseboard heating, I think it'll look fine. I'd get one large piece of art or mirror above fireplace. Area rug, larger table or an ottoman for the center, use the glass table one side of the sofa. You could do a cheap lengthening of the curtains with a band of fabric in off white or to match something else in the upholstery ...

Looks like you'll have the ability to rearrange the furniture often, moving sofa against window, chairs opposite, chairs on either side of fireplace, etc.

I would get a rug for underneath the furniture and change the wall color. It looks too peachy. How about a soft, light gray?

I also would remove the huge brown storage unit and replace with something else. It looks cluttered and takes up too much space. Stonington Gray by Benjamin Moore for the wall colors.

A simple inexpensive wood blinds will create a cozy space and will allow for light control

I would paint the walls, heat baseboard and woodwork the same color, lighter than the current color, perhaps having woodwork a tad higher gloss. I would splurge on longer panels and a pretty roman linen or soft color (not too dark) wooden shade. I would also paint the bricks of the fireplace and bring in beautiful andirons and have a mantel put on the fireplace.You can then display a few of the things you love from the large storage unit, but move the unit to the location of the piano, because it looks like your piano is too close to your baseboard heat source - it will dry piano out. Maybe paint the storage unit a coordinating color from the fabric? Finally, buy a broadloom square in a neutral color and squishy pad, and out some beautiful white birch in that lovely fireplace.

I like your furniture! I think there are a few small changes you can make that will make a big difference.
In terms of drapery, I might place a heavier panel of the same colour family on each end of the drapery you already have, therefore grounding the window. This may require another drapery rod on top of the other, which actually looks really nice. I like the light streaming in, so I would really hesitate to block it out.
Next, a coordinating area rug under your furniture would be nice. Your floors are lovely. I don't personally have rugs as I like the flow of flooring, so it's ironic that I suggest one. It was the first thing that came to mind though.
I would remove the tall shelf in the corner by the window and fireplace. It's dark and a scene-stealer. Your eye should go to the fireplace and your pretty furniture. If there are items in that shelf that you need in your room, can they be stored in your coffee table?
As for the back of the sofa, I think you need a console table that measures just below the top of your sofa. This would allow you to decorate the entrance view to the sitting room and also provide a place to put things while you are sitting on the sofa.
The art work on the hearth is nice but should be used elsewhere, because I find them both weightless and a bit odd in the placement of the shapes of the frames. Maybe these piecesoif art could go on the wall where the bookshelf was, could they?
An oversized mirror with an interesting frame would be very nice over the fireplace. You could mount it to the brick or beef up your fireplace with a mantle or floating mantle.
I do think the fireplace needs a heavier frame. It looks small as the focus of your room.
What decorative items are in the space now? Is there anything that you have placed to personalize the room as belonging to "you"?
I love cushions and think they make a big band for your buck. I would suggest you buy some more that coordinate with the custom ones that probably came with your sofa and chairs? Choose textures and colours.
I would also suggest adding two throws (lounging type blankets) in coordinating colours (but not the same), adding more texture to the room. Drape them over the arm or corner of your furniture.
Good luck!

I would definitely paint the fireplace brick a brighter creamy white, it's the only thing in the room that looks old. Add an area carpet and maybe darker blue panels? Love the furniture!
