Thanks a lot all. Caroline I love your renderings, thanks so much for your time. But unfortunately our kids (mainly the older one) doesn’t play alone on his room so we need the toys in the living area :/ I’ve thought about some of the other combinations before but there are some problems: piano cannot go next to the radiator, and TV cannot go on top of piano cause then it is too high. The wall next to window has a stupid shape but we may still be able to move the piano between window and patio door, and take the toys next to fireplace. I didn’t want to put TV on top of toys initially because of the risk of damage by our careless kids and their potentially careless friends. It’d have been much easier without the kids but hey ho, we said we’ll keep them :P

I'm in Jonathan's camp re splitting the lounge, I'd also think before doing it about your lounge furniture. The wall that you are thinking of having a hatch in looks like a prime sofa wall. Therefore, where will you put sofas? Also, why would you want a serving hatch going through in to a lounge anyway? They traditionally go through to the dining room, which, here is not the case. Not sure why you would want one on that wall, and what you would be passing through it? I don't like to pooh pooh peoples ideas, but it does sound just a little odd. I think that a lot more could possibly made of the space in general, with the help of a good concept planner maybe, as they're worth their weight in gold for using all available space to the utmost. Here's one idea:- Bearing in mind it's not to scale, just 'an idea' .

i love that slatted wall, it's a fantastic idea to copy. I have a large open plan space and something like that would screen part of it off perfectly. It's a beautiful apartment with very high end finishes perfectly executed. A lucky owner indeed...
