Need help with awkward space
13 years ago
We call this the "fireplace room" it is empty because we have no idea how to arrange furniture in it. It is the room that is in between the kitchen, family room, and hallway to the bedrooms. So we don't want to block it completely as it's used as a cut through. Any ideas??

13 years agoSomething along these lines would be nice. I do not know what your style of furnishings are but this is a great place to start for space planning.
