Need help for my small living/dining room with awkward layout
Comments (10)Hi. It's hard to tell if this will work as I can't tell the door width but what if you were to build a ŵall to wall bookcase on the desk ŵall incorporating both the tv and radiator? Ignore the design of this one, was just showing a pic of one against a window, You may need to widen the pillar by the dining room entrance slightly. Perhaps ammonite by F&B for the ŵalls with a floor that picks up one of the tones in the table. I'd also paint the coving in the ammonite and a darker shade of grey for the bookcase. Have a 6ft sofa (allowing for side table and lamp) opposite the bookcase (not against the ŵall) with a chair angled in front of the bookcase and perhaps go for an upholstered stool on legs as per your inspiration pic. You could use Romans on the windows, maybe in a vertical stripe and then use geo patterns for the cushions. Re lights I'd add ŵall lights to the bookcase and a flush for the living room, preferably just 7 inches high. You can afford to hang something lower over the dining table. Are you keeping the tall cabinet? I think your current table will look lovely with some upholstered chairs...See MoreLiving room layout for odd shaped room
Comments (23)Thank you all for your help so far! What colour do you think the bigger rug should be? I was looking at things like this https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/metro-rug-black-and-white-60x90-cm-prvw-vr~116921750 https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/jersey-8420-rug-stone-140x200-cm-prvw-vr~112201633 https://www.houzz.co.uk/products/copperfield-rug-60x90-cm-prvw-vr~116921735 but is it too much of the same colour for the room?...See MoreAwkward Living Room - Layout Ideas // Advice

Comments (7)Let him and his friends decide? Bean bags - large ones - for seating and a tv on a moveable table/cart ( or wall hung on a flexible bracket) That way they can set up however they like. Everything can the be stored when not in use. Add a gaming chair for when he wants it. Plus, rope light seems to be ‘a thing’ :-)...See MoreMatt Carlisle
