Consider a flex or bi-sectional sofa whose "chaise" portion can reverse from one side to the other for ease of changing up your arrangements.

Great help by Carolyn! Also, remember that with wireless placements of tvs, one need only have electricity (i.e., a plug, rather than cable set-ups. So tv placement is now much less constricted by cable outlets.

Hey, in looking at my drawing, I don't know why I didn't move the media console and TV further down that wall, but please mentally do so, folks! Thanks.

Living room: come svecchiare e sistemare

Puoi spostare la libreria? Se possibile aiuterebbe molto mettere il divano davanti alla finestra e la libreria di fronte (e non di lato). Poi oltre ad un bel tappeto, potresti scegliere tende uguali e fino a terra per la finestra e la portafinestra (magari in lino ... le trovi anche da ikea). Se puoi spendere un po' cambia tavolo e sedie (tristi tristi) con qualcosa di un po' più bello che magari porterai nella tua prossima casa e sistemalo verso la portafinestra. E affianca al divano dei pouf o dei cuscinoni da appoggiare a terra per gli amici. La parete dove ora è la libreria puoi dipingerla o riempirla di belle foto.

Salve Sara, scusa se non ho risposto prima ma oggi é stata una giornata di quelle al lavoro.. Comunque tornando a noi, tieni conto che la pianta così come la vedi a video é già orientata (N verso l'alto, S verso il basso) quindi con la TV posizionata sulla parete in basso tra le due porte finestre il problema controluce si porrebbe in caso solo dal primo pomeriggio in poi e al massimo fino al tramonto la sera durante le giornate più lunghe dell'anno, anche se credo che già dal tardo pomeriggio la zona TV venga poi coperta e riparata dall'angolo che forma la parte della cucina! Quindi si tratterebbe solo di alcune ore pomeridiane mal che vada. Spero di essermi spiegato abbastanza bene.. Non ho capito poi come intendevi tu mettere il divano a L, se un lato contro il muro comunque o meno, ed anche il mobile basso sul retro del divano o sulla parte cieca da 130cm che dicevi? Non capisco scusami.. E grazie poi comunque per la proposta ma diciamo che di solito sull'arredo d'interni ho già le idee abbastanza chiare, vuoi per via del mio gusto personale che anche per il lavoro che faccio (Geometra), con l'hobby e la passione per l'arredamento d'interni e il design appunto! Anzi se hai bisogno di un consulente quando magari sei oberata sono a disposizione per scambiare correnti di pensiero e gusto. Volevo solo condividere delle idee con gente del mestiere e sicuramente più esperta di me per sapere che ne pensavano. Grazie ancora e se hai voglia di rispondermi sono curioso del confronto che ne sta nascendo. Buona serata

Ciao Martina, potresti postare foto di tutte le pareti del locale? Sarebbe un peccato ostacolare luce e visuale della porta finestra posizionandovi davanti un divano e le misure che hai indicato sembrano troppo risicate per collocarlo parallelo al tavolo con tv sulla parete di sx. Chiedevo altre foto per capire meglio se sia invece possibile inserire la tv sulla parete dove indichi la credenza ed il divano sulla parete a sx dell'ingresso, magari un modello leggermente asimmetrico la cui parte finale sia rivolta verso la tv, sotto alcuni esempi: Se possibile per guadagnare spazio potresti far accorciare la panca quanto basta per inserirla quando non serve sotto il tavolo.

Have you thought about a sectional? I would update your sofa with a sectional and some cosy armchairs. Here are a few options from Bryght that I think would be perfect. From top to bottom, left to right.

1. Long Island Sectional
2. Polo Armchair in Beige
3. Domino Sectional in Beige
4. Polo Armchair in Cognac leather

Happy Decorating!

PS. Love the flooring!

Hey decoenthusiaste , Where did you find that couch? I love the color...that would take some convincing for my husband, but I really like it. I'm loving grays right now so I think that pop of color would be awesome. I just bought a chevron gray and white bench to hide toys. http://www.landofnod.com/stock-plus-storage-bench-with-feet/s595020

I wouldn't buy a sofa from I company I didn't know without sitting on it. Also, the price seems too low for it to be a good quality.

If I went with this style/color of a couch. What you you reccomend for chairs? I would prefer something that reclines, but its hard to find any that aren't just big and bulky looking.

The joy of a hickory floor with its multiple shadings is that almost any wood looks good with it. These days we are not using matching tables.

I like the looks of these two tables and they look like they would survive a couple of kids. For media consoles, I'd go to Ikea if you're lucky enough to have one near you.

Regarding chairs, Macy's and Dillard's frequently have leather chairs and leather recliners on sale at great prices. I'd take a look there. If you select fabric chairs, I think you'll find a solid color easier to work with. If you find something you like in a pattern, why not post a photo here for our reactions.

You should check out Krrb.com for cool vintage and 2nd hand furniture. I recently bought a sofa and a desk from there. Just now gave another quick browse and found this awesome club chair: http://krrb.com/posts/17056-restoration-hardware-leather-maxwell-chair

Thanks to all your advice so far. This is the couch we purchased today. In a dark gray. Its very comfy and so much nicer than the one we have! I couldn't pull the trigger on anything else yet. Still undecided on the ottoman and chairs. I can't decide on accent colors! Any thoughts?

It looks longer than what I drew. You probably only have space for one chair facing the stairway. What is the length?

It might be good to take a breath, after your new couch arrives and you have placed it exactly where you want it, the space will tell you what you really need.
Live on it a bit, snuggle with your little one and think, "what would make this feel more comfortable and practical?" ... Families tend to 'claim territory', just as spouses claim one side of the bed or the other.
Once the sofa arrives, try working with the pieces you already have - (lighting, side tables, etc.) What is wrong, or right about them is a good another clue to what you really need next.
Love the sofa. Good luck.

Here's what two other families chose to go with their gray sectional sofas. The first one used yellow accents which work beautifully with gray and the second used a combo of turquoise and greens.

As to the photos hung too high. I agree - the difficulty may be with a " very tall husband " whose eye level is high, thus finds it hard to hang lower. Persist!

Ask tall hub where his eye goes when he's seated. I suspect he spends more time seated than standing in his living room. Perhaps his eye is at the level of the TV. If so, why is the TV lower than the art?

Your coffee table size will need to be a bit smaller due to the angled seat on the left end of your sectional. Wait until it arrives and measure out 18" in all directions to see how wide your table can be.

Jay, the sofa and chaise I drew for you were 84" plus 33" for a total of 117". But I never did get your answer on whether the overall length of your living room was from the staircase to the half wall, so I suggest you tape off the size of what you have bought to make sure how it looks before the sale is finalized.

Yes we measured and 96" would line up to the middle of the windows. And yes the measurement was from the staircase to the half hall. I actually took my phone to show her your vision! :)

The TV is too big to mount on the wall where the picture hangs. Would I be better off just leaving it on a media stand, or try to mount on the wall be the staircase or to the right?? Thoughts???

I would put it where I drew it, on the long wall that backs up to the kitchen, and on an articulating arm, or just on top of a media console in that location with the ability to angle the TV for better viewing as needed.

In photo one, I only see the ottoman and part of the chair, but they look nice. I like the color and think it will go with your sofa, but best to check. Photo 2 is not attractive and is in a dated color. Photo 3 is another possibility, tho I prefer the fabric in photo 1.

So, I keep going back to this picture. For some reason I love the color of these tables. Do you think I could paint my end tables this color? Any experience in painting furniture? I was thinking a couple gray and white chevron pillows and maybe a pop of some red too? Any thoughts there? I'd keep the furniture at the gray tones?? I'm open to suggestions!

There are many ways to paint furniture. Depends if you want to do it yourself or not.....
Your best options for do-it-yourself paint is Chalk Paint or Milk Paint. My preference is Chalk Paint as there is no stripping or priming required. Mu husband owns a body shop - I will not use it for furniture after I discovered the Chalk Paint.
