Sell it?

How much room do you actually have? A floor plan with dimensions will get you more help.

Can you post some more pictures from different angles and further back? Maybe it's not that bad. Maybe because it's new you're not used to it so it looks too large?

Can you rotate it so it fits in the corner and move the TV to opposite wall?

REMOVE the middle piece on the side that divides the room. Good grief!! It didn't come in all as a piece! Do SAME on the wall side sofa if possible.

MAYbe you can use one as an armless chair..

Lesson ? Measure and plan first.

Clean up the clutter after you do that and post new pictures, other angles when you have room to crawl in. Lordy.......

I'd leave it. Get a sofa/console table to put behind the sofa back closest to the entrance and get a lamp or two to put on the table.

Please just try it, all due respect above. Use the armless piece in the corner. AFTER you de junk it

You have walled off any reasonable passage into the space to sit.

If I hate it ? I'll be the FIRST TO TELL YOU.

I was thinking console as well (assuming you have space). If you don't have space, try draping a throw over the back. Or a cool small area rug (that isn't too gross to sit on).

It's big and you're not used to it but it's not as bad as you think (unless there's too narrow a passage to the right).

Love your art in there.

Obviously that "stuff" in the upper right of your photo is a pile of things that were moved when you got your new sectional. It's not permanent. 🙄

I agree add a console than you can add lighting….how much space do you have from side of sectional to wall for traffic? Looks comfy for a family!

try jans suggestion. take some other pictures that give us some perspective.

more than one way to skin a cat. or arrange a sofa and tv.

The sectional is fine, imo; it fits in the space - and gives you a lot of seating, in one fell swoop. A streamlined effect.

Just remove everything else from the right side of the room (what is probably the window side) to open up the space visually, and physically. This would also allow more walking space. There appears to be two end tables/side table type of pieces there now. Remove those. Instead of the table lamp, use a floor lamp in that corner. And you could also bring in a sofa table to back the sectional. If you need to use a narrow/slim sofa table, that is fine. And you could also put a lamp on the sofa table.

This is very rough - but just to give you the general idea:

a sofa table or console behind the back is an obvious choice here, but we still need to see more pics showing the entire space from diff angles

This sectional cuts the room like yours, but this is a larger room w/a clearly defined walking space to the left. have no idea how yours relates to this.

Y'all, let's just give our OP a chance to reply! They're probably measuring stuff right now, or doing a shift at the hospital, or....

A common problem with sectionals. Do what Jan said - remove the armless inside piece and everything on the right side of the room, and then see how it feels. We’ll wait. 😉

Yeah.....toe tap here. Really, Could be on the john, right? : )

It looks like you have enough space to walk around it.

I would pull it away from the TV wall as much as you can, which will provlde "air space" around it, and make it look more proportional. That may mean that you can't put a sofa table behind it, but I don't think you absolutely need a sofa table there.

I would not remove the middle section as a first response without trying other things, because it's probably seating that you need, and I don't see a good place to put the (uncomfortable) armless section. Also, if you want the sectional to act as a room divider, you don't want that section to be too short.

One of the reasons the sectional looks ill-proportioned is that the room's walls are not "done". The art work should be a bit lower. Center it on the sofa section, once you have moved the sofa back.

The TV is too low, which gives you an odd look to that wall. Add an end table and lamp in the corner. Or an arc lamp.

But room proportion is hard to tell from photos, even if you provide us with more. So to some extent we need to take your word for the "feel", but I hope you try some of my suggestions to adjust the visual of the proportions, before you take apart the piece.

I see that you are new to Houzz. I hope you aren't too discouraged by Jan's tone. She talks that way to everybody, although lately with even more exclamation marks and capital letters than usual.

I'm with la_la Girl...put the corner of the sectional in the corner. There are two good solid walls to make it work. T V now goes to the 3rd wall. Move the steer to the wall where the t v is now.

A simple solution to gain more space would be to simply turn the sectional.

No advice here, ya got so much advice. Just waiting to see whatcha come up with and what works for you in this space :-)

Enjoy the process!

Beverly that is so much better! Totally agree turn the sectional!

The OP wanted the sectional to act as a room divider, and the corner solution doesn't do that. But corner placement may be a good compromise if there is a place for the TV on the opposite wall.

I can’t tell just how much space is left on eithe end or side. I would think about is how do you normally use the seating— usual # of people, whether are all family vs friends. Is there any place left for a side table or C table at the ends? Because having a bunch of people jackknifing to a coffee is not that cin

There are lots and lots of ways to divide a room, without blocking the space with a large sectional.

This one’s cracking me up…I’ll just say do whatever allows you to add at least 3 lamps so you don’t ever have to turn on the fan light!

HU-877 where are you?

Yes, can you post more pics showing more of the space. Can't tell how much room you have on the wall on the left, but can the sectional be pulled back some? Can you remove a section from the wall side of sectional?

HU-877600710 - ?

@JAN MOYER I did measure it and it fits lengthwise - it's just a lot of couch. I tried removing the center piece as you suggested and it also doesn't look right. The issue isn't room - there' plenty of room to walk around it and it opens up my foyer quite a bit, it's just a WALL of couch (before I had a small love seat there and a longer couch against the wall). The sh*t in the corner is getting moved, but the apartment has been in shambles because of all the moving of stuff.

I will take more pictures tomorrow.

@Sabrina Alfin Interiors, @Fori, @partim, @elcieg, @Beth H. :@freedomplace1, @Home Interiors with Ease...I actually ordered a console which I'm hoping will break it up. Instead of the lamp, I ordered a tree for the corner. I like the idea of just moving the cow and the couch, but the problem is where the cable wires are and the glare from the back doors.

More pictures to come tomorrow.

Thank you all for your help and suggestions :) I didn't realize there was such a great community on here...

You can add cable cord...........run it down to the floor and to where you WANT it. Your cable company can and will do it. You don't need to be a prisoner of cable.

You want to move things around, and take pictures, but you don't want to draw and measure the actual space, the actual doors and foyer and all of it.

The more info here? The more help. .......just sayin.: )
