living room Nightmare

3 years ago

Please don't pay attention to the furniture that is in the pictures. This is staged from when I purchased the house. I absolutely can't find any configuration of furniture that works. I want a livable living room that also looks nice. We have a TV above the fireplace and a desk against the wall to the left of fireplace. I'm ready to get rid of all of our other furniture because I'm frustrated. This issue is, I'm not even sure where to start. It seems like a horrible design to me. That and I'm not very blessed in the decorating/design area. Thank you!

    Flip the sofa to be 'wall' at the hallway. One black chair and table with elephant can go where sofa now is. Move artwork later.

    Move the Tv to the wall
    Where the artwork if but much lower than it is now mounted. Flip the sofa to face the TV. You may need to toss the love seat and getter comfier chairs - bonus if they swivel to the tv if needed.

    You need to draw out a floor plan including all doors/entry/windows and FP dimensions in order to get any help. Can you post a picture of what the space currently looks like with YOUR furniture? Is this room the only place for your TV? At first glance of the listing photo, TV needs to come off from above FP and go to the left (where I think you said you currently have a desk??) It is WAY too high above that FP. Why do you have a desk in your living room currently? Need a bit more info to help especially some clarification from you how you want the space to function.

    What furniture do you have besides the desk? It's a very small shallow space, not really a room it seems. I am not a sectional fan by a long shot but I wonder if you could use one here with a coffee table and call it good. Corner the sectional against the window and the fireplace wall.

    We have a brown leather couch and a small love seat the reclines. We also have an entry table on the blank wall when you walk into the area. I think all of my current furniture needs to go. I have been thinking a section on the long wall and the window wall and possibly putting the TV on the wall that is blank in these pictures. Just wasn't sure how that would look when you walked into the house. I feel like I could still find an entry table to put below the tv. Do you think that would open up the space or look strange? Or put tv where the desk is currently and move desk to the other side of the fire place? Would probably need a smaller sectional to make that option work.

    I need to get dimensions. That is the real house. I hate all my furniture, so nothing is staying. Want a fresh slate with new ideas.
