Hey, i like your use of the word 'struggle' i think it sums up how i've been finding this at the moment, odd since normally i just decide what i want and just happen upon the right stuff and it always works. I'm over thinking this living room way too much and need to not struggle so much, enjoy it and hopefully it'll just happen. I LOVE the womb chair (and the footstools that tend to accompany it), i think you might need to try your best to win that one :) I've made a few decisions this past weekend in thinking the way the room was headed was too formal and not at all me, i need to get a blast of modern in there, so first steps was to return the matchy matching lamps and have spent all weekend looking at TV units, i've looked at the whole of the internet and not seen one i like that;s less than £3000 anyway(gulp)! I like the layout of the room in that pic and the colours but it's possibly a tad too much Mid Century for my personal taste, but seriously envious of those windows and shutters and the high ceilings !

The simplest way to cure the problem if boxing the pipes isn't an option all around is to get a plumber to put 90 degree bends either side of the fireplace and drop the pipes under the floor at those points. This now leaves the whole fireplace area free and flush. ( You will need to remove the mantel though ). You can then build pretty much anything infront of it. I'd use MDF, it's cheap and it's easy to cut into whatever shape you like. I've done you a really simple mock up. Good luck xx

Hi Danielle. Are your parents literally looking to change everything then?? I can see your mum likes greys and inky blues, which way does the room face? Rather than use the darker paints on the half walls, which I think divides the room, consider using on the fireplace ŵall ( do you have a pic of this?) and under the stairs. I'd keep the other room light for reading.As they have a separate living room, I'd reduce seating, a small 2/3 sofa under the window but pulled away from the ŵall. Full length curtains could look good here but it depends if there's room when the sofa is pulled away, maybe check when you have measurements and go for a slimmer table. I'd keep the curtains light to tie in with ŵall colour. Where the other sofa is have an accent chair in the corner with a floor lamp behind. Where the mirror is I'd put a low wide bookcase with matching table lamps and a mirror over the top. I'd also go for a smaller patterned rug as its hiding the lovely floor. I agree re the porch door but it's letting a lot of light in, maybe they can cover with cardboard and assess the impact! Are there any pendant lights at all? I'd go for an extending dining table so they can accommodate more guests, it looks as if they could pop the extra (smaller) dining chairs in corners? It doesn't look as if full length curtains would hang properly unless the rad was moved? Perhaps a vase of faux flows on the dining table ( good quality!). The art looks good but I don't think the ones next to the window work so would look at some of the positions and maybe create gallery walls. design wise maybe modern English country?? Add the pattern and accent colour in their accessories, soft furnishings. It looks a lovely room though

Swveng, 20 ft x 8 ft is a difficult space to create one space. If I'm not mistaken, there would have been a wall about where the TV is now sited and a second working fireplace. Is it possible to remove the chimney breast where you no longer use a fire? This may involve removing the stack right up through the house and roof. If it's a possibility, you will gain more space at that end of your lounge and in the room above as well. You may also want to consider dividing the spaces again with a new stud wall. Should you keep the long space open and remove the chimney breast, the TV unit could be moved to that spot. Another 2 seater sofa could be positioned facing into this area at right angles to the brown sofa to create a TV viewing area. The other end of the room with the bay window could have the easy chair in the bay plus a games table with chairs in front of the fireplace. This can be a homework area as well for the family. Once you work out how to use the space and which furniture pieces you want to retain , if any, then you can decide the colour scheme.
