**also, photos above the shelf are not going to stay there!

Measure and draw out the space to scale on graph paper. You can then cut out pieces of paper to scale for different pieces of furniture. Try different configurations of various size pieces available to you. For flow clearance I'd move the shelves so one side of the table could move into that space against the wall. Try that in scale. I like the Ikea chaise sectional because it has pocketed spring seat cushions and removable covers. Uppland. You can add a matching ottoman as added chaise space and coffee table.

Thanks for your input! This is helpful

Center the rug. Too much on one side of the room.

No window.

Do something with the back wall...paint, art, wallpaper

You've ordered your largest piece of furniture. Do you have a pic of the sectional?

This is what I’ve ordered!

Thanks for this!! 😊

Have you actually measured your room and the newly ordered sectional? The sectional looks enormous compared to the available space.

Yes we measured and it fits, in pictures space looks smaller

Because of the photo angles, I can't tell if the rug is horizontal or vertical. But either way, center it in the space and the place the seating on it, or at least the front legs.

A window would look nice there.

I think you need some nice art and coordinating throws/pillows.

Are you putting a tv in this room or not?

Yes, right now it’s there actually on the side across the couch. It’s on the smaller side
