great room space idea? Help!

6 years ago

Not sure what to do in the space next the couch!! This view is from the entrance of the house. I put the dining room in front of the kitchen . I was thinking another sitting area but don’t know how.

    Not enough information for an informed opinion. Stand in that same space and keep taking photos as you turn, so we know what the room is and what's already there...

    Sorry. Ok this is the entrance foyer.

  • 6 years ago

    When you walk in this is the space you first see.

  • 6 years ago

    This is the view when you look right.

    This is the side of the TV. There’s an alcove which I am planning to do a wet bar.

    And this is another view

    try again. There isn't a limit except in a single comment. Just be sure it's formatted correctly and not too large.

    I did it ! Here is the floor plan. :)

    I need help with the space in the great room in front of the wet bar option . Any ideas will be appreciated.

    wondering if you could put two swivel chairs with a small side table between the two in front of the wall with the two art pieces and then add a bench on the wall as you would walk into the entry to the dining area... would need to see if there is enough walkway room, but the concept...

    Really nice place ! That looks perfect . I’m going to try both ideas! Do you think a large floor mirror will look better than the two art pieces ?

  • 6 years ago

    Where are the walnut table and bench from ? And the accent chair

  • 6 years ago

    I like the art as its a nice thing to look at as you enter the house, i wouldn't put a mirror as you would see yourself as you walk in and that feels odd to me

    all the furniture pieces are from west elm.

    Thank you Theresa!

    While I like Patricia's idea for a long-term plan, there's something to be said for open floor space when you have young kids. Just sayin', you don't need to be in a hurry to fill up the space.

    If you are thinking of a sitting area, adding an armchair or a bench with a coffee table would complement perfectly the entire area. As you have a modern style a Barcelona table made of glass and with steel details, would complement your simplicity and organic shapes.

    Check this combination:







    I hope this could help you!

    Thank you! Everyone ! Do you think I need two rugs in the great room? If so, what size?

  • 6 years ago

    My style I’m going for now is a modern rustic kinda feel . Is that something I can do ? For example, I’m in love with these chairs but I feel this one won’t go because of my modern TV stand and also the tone of the wood.

    This chair

  • 6 years ago

    I think a 8x10 or 9x12 for the large seating grouping, will want to measure the seating area so that minimally the front legs of the seating are several inches on the rug. then, maybe more of an irregular shape like a cowhide for the grouping of the two chairs with side table if you add them...

  • 6 years ago

    Ok so if I understand correctly an 8x10 where the sectional is and then a cowhide for the space next to it with the two chairs?

  • 6 years ago

    I think that chair can absolutely work. mixing woods can work and you could add a little table that looks like a log to bring in a rustic vibe or even a cowhide pillow?

  • 6 years ago

    I’m really bad at picking rugs ... what would looks good?

    Behind the sectional I ordered 3 tall shelves like these .

  • 6 years ago

    yes, that was one thought...just make sure the 8x10 works for the sectional area

  • 6 years ago

    And on the shelves I ordered rustic things like this ...

  • 6 years ago

    I have this one. Will this work?

  • 6 years ago

    love the rustic bowls...I will look for some rugs and provide some options. one quick thought is a fun flokati rug, modern but also can be on the rustic side too. bbl with some more

  • 6 years ago

    This is where I got the inspiration to do shelves

  • 6 years ago

    I love this

  • 6 years ago

    yes I think that stool could work. i might then bring in some of the grey and the lighter wood color from chair in a rug...

  • 6 years ago

    Awesome! Thank you ! 🙂

    Since you have a designated TV area at the end of the space, why not use this area for a comfy conversation zone with 4 chairs circled around coffee table in front of the art?
