OK,

Back to the drawing board. Your sofa is great where it is. The plant doesnt look so good (fake fake look), and the chair and lamp are both lost hanging out over there.. also the floating ottoman is not quite right either. Just loose that plant all together. The lamp can be useful in another room Im sure.

You would need to either

A. get a larger chair with arms to go center to the rug across from the sofa.

B. add a second chair and paid them across from the sofa.

That being said, there maybe a better way for this room all together. What is behind the sofa that faces the tv?

Is this the only area you can put a desk?

Can the two cases on the end of the entertainment center become independent if the top crown is removed?

Thanks for the input!
Behind the sofa facing tv is my kitchen.
The 2 cases are separable from the TV stand.
The lamp was in my bedroom and fake tree (a problem when you buy online) was in dining room. should I leave both sides of entertainment center with nothing hanging then?

Is there a wall behind the Sofa (across from the tv? Is that the doorway you are standing in the first picture? Or is it open?

NO you will want art on that wall, and on the other walls to help anchor this room. For balance sake you need a larger coffee table, and a larger arm chair .

I'm just trying to see if there is a better spot for the desk.

can you flip this room?

Humm... I'm not sure. Tv would block most of the window and get a lot of heat. And those entering the room would face the back of the couch, which I think is not very inviting...
As soon as I get home I will send a picture of the whole place. my kitchen is combined with living room. One big room.

Here's a picture of the whole room

Use that slipper chair in a bedroom. Two leggy armchairs can sit on the floor there. Get a rug large enough to slip under the front 1/3 of the sectional and extend past the two ends by a couple of feet. Are you going to try to squeeze a table in under the pendant light fixture at the end of the island? If not, I'd remove it or replace with a can light. Hope you have LEDs under the upper cabinets. Change the fan for a nice chandy, and groveraxle will probably have some nice lamps for you shortly.

The ottoman is too small (you’d have to use a messenger to fetch your drink and bring it to the sofa) and the plant is too fake. The slipper chair is too dainty. A desk or table would be great in the empty corner (just don’t make it too matcha—no more dark wood please). The kitchen has some quirks but you didn’t ask so I’ll shut up now.

Thanks for your help Grover. Haha.. the lamp is indeed from the time I was a student.
What type of table and chair should I get for the corner office?

Decoenthusiast, the chair was in my bedroom, I just placed it there so I could have an idea if would work or not. So What color and style of chair do you think would work in my living room?
unfortunately I bought the rug a few months ago, so won't be able to change it. Do you think I could just bring it close to the couch?
Thanks!

This is probably a little too modern for you, but you can substitute furniture that is more your style.

Jpp, yes! That chair doesn't belong there. I'm planning on getting a bigger one with light greys and blues. What do you think? The plant (that's the problem when buying online) is going somewhere else... For the living room I'm planning on buying a fig tree. What do you think?
Please feel free to give suggestions for the kitchen. The lamp on the left came with the house and I'll replace it, if I decide to place a small round table there (still thinking if maybe it's just better to enjoy the extra space).
Thanks!

Grover, that's interesting... I thought on placing the table against the wall on the left...
I love modern furniture, but my husband is super traditional... And I have 4 kids, that's why my couch is dark...

This probably better fits your aesthetic. You'll have to refinish that desk, but hey...it was free. ;-)

I don't know if you noticed, but I kept your rug and just pulled it under the sofa more. You can see it better without the chair.

Is that what you did to the rug?
How about the first desk you posted but against the left small wall?

Ok, that kitchen view was very helpful.
Now follow me here, what if you centered the tv to the island and created a desk space under the window...

I mean push everything left

That's what I was going to say, RL. There is too much open space right now that is being wasted, IMO. Bring the sofa toward the entry by about four(?) feet, so it is more lined up with the island and see if you can't bring it a little closer to the island (one foot?). Everything seems to be jammed into a small space, which the whole room isn't. Plus, the end of the sofa is jammed up against the entertainment center, which makes it unusable for TV watching. I think you might be surprised by how much these minor tweaks will open up the space. Oh, and also center the TV center on the wall. You could probably put a smallish desk on the side wall and still have room to put art on the left of the entertainment center. And yes, have the front legs of the sofa on the edge of the rug in both directions. A ficus tree would probably do well in that right corner, as it does not require direct sunlight.

also thinking to remove the book case deals from either side of the entertainment center.

Do you think instead of a tree I could get one large vase and put those dry tall wood sticks inside? I like them more then trees...
or if I decide to use art on both sides of the cabinet, should they be complimentary? Or can I make a gallery wall both sides or it would be too much??

Grover will fall over if you put sticks in a vase. Buy a Fig tree, I water mine like once a month, good in moderate light and really fill up space.

NO VASES OF STICKS! They are an ABOMINATION! (RL knows me too well.)

Haha... okay, okay... no sticks!

Ah yes, now I can breathe in there! This is much better without those towers of power beside the TV

Can we move left and put the desk behind the sofa under the window?

Yes! That looks much more clean!
Having the table under the windows is a good option, but I guess the Tv would not be centered on wall then... to make more space behind the couch...

And thank you for taking the time to do that! I really appreciate it!
