My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Help! Layout v1 or Layout v2?

13 years ago
I need help figuring out 2 things for the small family room: (1) How to Layout the furniture (2) How to decorate the space. I like the "open" feel of Layout v1 with the couch under the window, which does not cramp the front door.... but V2 is not as functional to watch TV sideways.
Which layout do you like best - v1 or v2? Do you have a v3 idea? What would you do on either side of the TV? Mirrors? Chest? Help!
v1 - Open layout but not ideal for watching TV
v1- Open layout w/ 2 chairs
v2- Couch centered but front door crammed
v2- bare walls need help
