I really dislike sectionals they are IMO the most expensive way to buy two comfy seats. I like a sofa and a2 chairs . Armrests = comfort so a sectional gives you 2 seats comfy all the rest are like the middle seat in a sectional . The soafa 2 chairs give you 4 comfy seats and one in the midle of the soafa . What are the Xs in the drawing . How many seats do you NEED in the gathering room? Are you redoing the kitchen I think I need more info. Please post any thing related to this space in camments here including pictures DO NOT start another post.

Thanks Patricia, that makes a lot of sense. The X’s represent lighting. Here are a couple of pictures of the model, but our version will not include the fireplace or extended wall where it sits like in the model. The kitchen will remain as is.

I would float a sofa facing the TV, 2 chairs in front of the windows, and a swivel chair in the bottom left corner.

I like that idea, thank you!

you need to pull the furniture off the walls.

the photo of the white sectional against the short wall looks ridiculous.

create a imaginary wall off the last window on the right in a bank of windows

whether you do a sectional or a sofa and chairs is a personal preference.

Very helpful, thank you!
