Living room layout? Help

3 years ago

Dilemma on where to place couches. I wanted to add a fireplace wall where tv is. Would this look okay next to the door. I like this design because it seems there is more room longways. I'm worried if the fireplace would look tacky next to the doors. Help 🙏

The tv should move to the opposite end wall…having the tv cabinet (or a fireplace) on that wall is too close to the entry way. Then the sofa along the windows and the double recliner facing the tv with an end table/lamp in the corner between them. The entry way will be unobstructed and separated from the seating area. And the living room seating will be open to the kitchen.

It currently does not look good. The TV is too close to the entrance and the seating is too far apart.

A rug would help anchor the seating.
