I'm having a hard time getting a sense of your style: the mirrored chest along with the wood table, candles, etc. Try and come up with a unifying color or style. From what I can see in this photo, it would be better if you centered the table on the wall so it is not lined up with the doorway opening. Next, move your mirrored chest to another room or somewhere where it is not seen at the same time you are looking at the table and chairs. If you can not hang a ceiling dining room light fixture then place a simple tall vase and dramatic fronds or branches. Paint that wall your favorite color and go for a deep tone -

Can you move the buffet to be centered on wall? Hard to tell if you have enough room. Turn the table 90 degrees to give more room for the buffet on wall. Floating shelves above with glassware so you can use for a bar or just for art.





More photos would be helpful.

Well the table sits directly under the light fixture and that is why I didn't centre it. The showroom for this unit had the table sitting exactly where it is but they had then floating shelves in which I don't like. The mirrored buffet was a purchase before I moved into a condo. I can not put it in a bedroom because it won't fit in my bedroom! Already tried that and it didn't work. :( I can't get rid of the mirrored piece as it was quite costly. I will have more pics up

Go big and go bold!
Big artwork.
Replace the candlesticks and candles with BIG candlesticks and BIG candles.
Maybe try to center the dresser more on the wall so that artwork above it doesn't look lopsided,
Or get two coordinating pieces of art....

Here are more pics!! Hope this helps

Is there a way to turn the table and put the buffet on the opposite wall from where it is now? The light is so small on the ceiling that I do not think you need to worry about having the table right under it. Put the table where it works best for you in that space.

OR leave the table against the wall and move the buffet to the other wall anyway? Center them in the area you have designated as the dining area. Then get the big art work to place over the buffet instead of over the table.

Also wondering if the buffet could go in front of that center part of the window???? Would it block too much view there? Be in the way of the couch? Move the chair that is there now over by the other chair with a small table between them.

Hi again - the pics are helpful but I would like to see a shot of the TV/FP? wall plz. From what I can see, part of the problem is not only the placement of your furniture but the scale. The table and chairs and the mirrored chest are big and heavy visually. They are making your sofa appear smaller than it is, I suspect.

I would definitely center your table in the center of the wall where it will make more sense. I agree with a prior comment that the overhead lighting becomes a moot point/concern. The mirrored chest must go across the room to the opposite wall (not too close to the TV/FP) and this will create another focal point. I would avoid more hard edges so a large vase with branches or flowers will fill the wall space in a natural way. If there is an outlet behind the chest, the perfect table lamp would be lovely (pay close attention to scale when choosing a lamp).

Back to the dining wall: I am suggesting you paint it Benjamin Moore STONE HEARTH 984 in a FLAT finish. This is a deeper neutral that will add sophistication and help anchor your furnishings. Paint the entire wall from the corner near the windows to past the doorway to the kitchen cabinet edge. On your blank wall over the DR table, a very large mirror would be beautiful. Enjoy the process - it is a lovely space with great light! I hope my thoughts are helpful to you.
