It is beautiful, but does seem to compete with your pretty fire place. I think a long narrow console table would balance the space better.

I agree that it completely takes away the focus from your fireplace. It just does not compliment that space very well! Sorry!

Can you center it on the wall better? It might compete less if is not so close to the fireplace.

It isn't too big, it is placed wrong on the wall. First try moving it to the left until it allows the fireplace to hold its own corner. Then add art between the two to bring color to the room. Add color in accessories, too...a vase, a soft throw, pillows, more art, books.

Trying to help - so dark, next to creamy white fp. The sectional takes the stage as huge neutral... I'm wondering if you shouldn't paint the fireplace a color... it will stand up next to the unit then. Right now.... is it losing?

Or alter it in some way -- boy idk, but what about removing the fancier upper? which the tv unit isn't like at all: fancy..... ? maybe something of that creamy color on the other side of the unit.... some time.
