You mention another seating area…the one downstairs?…Is there another sofa some where? I would swap the sofa with the tv/cabinet, especially if the current tv wall is the longest. Then place the end table/lamp in the corner near the window. Move the floor lamp beside the leather chair. You’ll need another end table for the other side of the sofa and a smaller side/drink table next to the chairs. The rocking chair will need to go elsewhere. I think curved or irregularly shaped decor would add some personality and soften all of the square edges.

Yes, the seating area downstairs. There is another sofa but it’s dark green. I’m guessing that wouldn’t go together? I’m thinking a large round clock in between the windows?
Great idea on the arrangement… I’m wondering how that would be with glare on the tv though? I’ll give it a try!

Do you like the green sofa better? If you think it could work, I’d probably bring one or both of the dark brown recliners upstairs with it. Yes, with the big window, there is/will be some glare, but you’ll be able to easily reach the draperies to close them.

That’s a good idea. I’ll try that. This is the what you see when you walk in the front door. It’s in need of an update!

Could you please post a pic of the green couch and the living room floor plan with measurements as well as the furniture measurements. Better to figure out the furniture layout before physically moving furniture. Or do you happen to have furniture sliders? …so you can easily move the current furniture to try out the proposed configuration.
