Arranging furniture an TV unit in Open living and dining area

11 months ago

I have an open-concept living and dining area, and I'm feeling a bit unsure about how to arrange the furniture and TV unit in the living room. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Please indicate where the front door is, or any other doors. Also all windows.

    Also if the kitchen is part of the open floor plan please indicate where it is. Also please convert measurements to feet and inches,thanks.

    Will there be a fireplace?

    These details determine how foot traffic flows, sightlines, seating , etc.

    Looks like you can put as large a tv, even 100", on the wall that has a bedroom on the other side. A jarge 'L' sectional in front of the dashed line and down the top wall in the diagram. It could include large ottomans and possibly a chaise end at the dining room end. Once you have a true scale drawing, make scale examples of different seating examples and move them around on your drawing.

    Here is a concept sketch with an entry console table, a sectional, an easy chair/foot rest, a coffee table, TV console with TV (aqua line), and a dining table. Area rug is the pink rectangle.

    The red lines are traffic patterns....I think I have the doorways correct.

    Thank you for your reply. I updated the diagram I hope it is more clear now. There is no fireplace

    Okay great and it looks like my concept layout proposal is one that would be possible.

    Thank you once again. What’s confusing me is the hallway entrance, which measures 7.8 feet. I’m concerned that this could create an uneven distance, particularly in relation to the TV unit. Could you help clarify how this might affect the overall layout and flow of the space?

    I added a second sketch to my comment and the sectional is pushed away from the hallway in that one.

    The easy chair could be a swivel chaiir to face different directions. The sectional could be replaced with a sofa and loveseat.

    I'm not sure what you mean by an "uneven distance in relation to the TV". Both of my sketches allow access to the big hallway...either behind the sofa-or in front of the TV. I guess I did not make clear the red lines are the foot traffic pattern.
