Hello friends! Our family room/great room (open to the kitchen ) has three walls: one is all glass/window to our back yard, one is a reg wall, and one is a very large, long, very high, but otherwise regular wall. Currently, we have our dark brown leather recliner couch (three cushions, with one of them being a chaise) against the wall of glass, and the tv/wall unit across from it. This room functions as a family room, mancave (b/c we don't have a basement) and playarea for our 2 year old.

We are redocorating, but the couch will stay. I'd like your ideas for:

1) What style to decorate around a dark brown leather couch (most likely the couch will be the only item to stay, b/c my husband is v. particular about the football-watching couch! :) ). Couch pic is atta

2) I NEED your ideas about what to do with this humongous, daunting wall! I'd like to make it a feature wall, with an electric fireplace at the bottom center, with a humongous (possibly 75-80 in tv) over it, but as close to eyelevel as possible to the couch (another football thing...). My husband is stuck on building a new wall unit from Ikea Besta line, but I'd like something a lot more sophisticated and well made, but still affordable. We're also reconsidering moving the couch so that it faces the smaller regular wall, but we don't want to cut off the clear walkway across the family room, kitchen and dining room....

Thank you in advance, I can't wait to hear your ideas!
