Living room design

12 years ago

I'm having trouble deciding on a design layout for my living room. I have a very open floor plan. The room has a big 11.5 opening from the foyer and an 8.5 opening to the dining room. The room is 10.5 wide by 16.5 long. Not sure where to place sofa (s) and or chairs. Room needs to be modern and kid friendly. Open to any and all ideas.

Draw a half circle out from that window area with end tables and furniture pieces, make the window the focus, if you need a TV there put it in that LH corner, not so central but still in a good position.
