Reworking my floor plan
I'm in the process of buying this house and I want it to be more functional. I don't like have multiple living and dining spaces. What I would like to do is have the dining room in the current family room (open to kitchen) and use the whole dining area/living room as a big living room. I need help with the furniture layout in the new living room. We have Bible study meetings with 15-20 people very often and would like to have generous seating space for everyone to gather and feel comfortable in conversation.

Instead of this type, do ones with a bench seat, not individual cushions. Seat more that way!

I would take your plan to a furniture store and tell them your needs. I think now that a large sectional without a lot of separate cushions would work well in that one "dining room" corner. Then have a lot of extra rolling ottomans to bring over.

Something like this may work for you. Sort of reminds me of your floorplan. Notice how the one sofa is on wheels. That would give your some flexibility.

8 anni faUltima modifica: 8 anni faRemoving that wall would just promote "open concept" and isn't necessary. The other changes to the entry and den could be saved up for and done as you have the budget. New light fixtures would be a major help in giving you an updated appearance right now, if you can budget for those. People usually don't care to sit elbow-to-elbow, and our Bible studies are done around a "U" of folding tables so there's room to spread out Bibles, study aids, and laptops. If you can dedicate the den to the study group's use, consider purchasing three to four folding tables and chairs that can be set up there if you like to have a table surface for the studies. Then furnish the living room with a round table and four chairs in the bay window - a family game table, if you will. I'd use a pair of 3-seat sofas facing each other with four chairs so they form a square with a large coffee table in the center.
