Struggling with sofa placement in small open plan living area
Comments (4)Hi. A few options.,You could try a 2 seater between the windows, position the tv opposite on the bathroom wall and have a 3 seater on the back wall. Or keeping with the tv where it is, have 2 x 2 seaters at right angles to the TV and windows. Or the TV on the back wall, a 2 seater between the windows and a 2 seater opposite on the bathroom wall. Or the TV on the back wall and have an l shaped sofa opposite it and put a console table or something behind so you don't have a view of the sofa as you walk in....See MoreLiving area furniture placement
Comments (4)I agree with Angelboyman. Move the sofa nearest the doors 90 degrees to face the fireplace and then if you want you can have your armchair and footstool, Your square coffee table will mean that you can go slightly nearer to the fireplace than you have currently. I'd go for greys and then sagey greens as you need to strike a balance inside and out, because of the beautiful view, stick to colours that you can also see outside. You have a grey / white striped canopy so grey is a good colour, trees, plants etc are green so everything will blend well. You can if you wish have a few accessories such as the cushions, vases in another accent colour, but i'd stay away from anything to heavy such as the terracotta. Just grey and greens will look lovely with the wooden doors, the coffee table, the dining table, the attractive planter by the fireplace etc. Choosing colours from nature mean that you will not be competing with the view, rather more blending with it. I'd change the black picture frames though. Grey / Green - LIght and Airy with the touch of greenGreen / Grey ( personally prefer the first combo )Greige with darker grey accent - best comboGreen and Terracotta, don't know about you, but hate it....See MoreHelp with layout and furniture placement in kitchen/diner/family room
Comments (8)Good morning Hazel, Here's a link to a guide on small extensions under permitted development, if you haven't already looked at. https://interactive.planningportal.co.uk/mini-guide/extensions-single-storey/0 Once you have more idea on the construction of the extension and the exact dimensions, you'll be able to properly assess the internal space you have. You are correct in saying that it wouldn't be ideal to have to walk through the living space into the extension for the dining room. The proposed extension itself may not be ideal for a living/family area once a sofa and TV are in, as this won't leave much space for an external bi-fold/sliding door. Another option to explore is moving the kitchen to the left and having the living/family room to the right hand side (where the kitchen is currently situated). This will then mean the extension will hold the dining space....See MoreAny tips on furniture placement
Comments (9)That helps alot !!....Its a lovely room ...just needs some help with furniture etc. I can see why you use the table near the window. Can you spend any money or were you just wanting a change around ?? If you've got money I would do the following.... Buy a round/oval table and chairs to go in bay Sell sofa and buy a corner one - keep where it is Remove single chair (could be used in bedroom/study etc) and put a small console style table where the chair was. This will give the kitchen entrance a more open feel. Mount the TV on the wall (above where it is) This will free up the cupboard underneath for some ornaments/plants etc. A more expensive option would be to remove doors of cupboards and block in anything below waist height. This will give you more wall space and you could maybe play around with your sofas etc....See MoreChristine Harrison Fine Art and Mosaics
