Help with living room decor please :)
Comments (8)All it really needs is something on the walls (love the arch mirror by the way). I love the decor colour you have chosen - it just needs a lift. So symmetrical mirrors would work, but maybe in a darker colour? Artwork is always good, whether a canvas, photos or prints. One large canvas or a gallery wall of photos over the sideboard would look good. You have a mustard yellow throw, so how about using that colour more in the room, say with cushions and artwork? Lots of colours go with that warm grey and I also think black can lift it like your lamp and console table. I agree that the tv is too high (neck ache!) but I also understand the wiring is probably chiselled into the wall, so ripping the stone tiles is probably not an option! I don’t think it will take much to jazz up this lovely room....See MoreLiving Room Decoration Help
Comments (1)Am thinking the alcove naturally lends itself to TV position if using this idea. Elsewhere in the room and it will simply encroach on your floor space. It would mean your current lounge in it's current position would be close to the TV - but if it is a flush as possible it might just work. The sideboard might have to leave it's position and go beside the door....See MoreDining room decor help
Comments (23)You might not need to paint yet if you’re feeling stuck, I’d say get some big artwork with some pops of colours like blue/orange and neutrals and stick them on the wall behind the big chairs. Make sure they’re statement size For the table I’d go for something oak or wood just to bring some warmth to the room - also have you considered a round table? That might help soften the shapes there. Then get a big rug underneath too! Kukoon and Dunelm have some really affordable ones. Personally I’d find somewhere else to put the chairs, maybe one in the corner of your room or anywhere else. They crowd the room and look out of place, instead I’d pop a sideboard and put some nice little vases/ books on top for added layers Finally I’d change the light to something more low hanging and maybe wood/brown/earthy tones just to add some wow...See MoreHelp needed with sideboard size and tv position
Comments (13)Hi Darren, I think when you have the space its always better to go bigger. As life and time changes we all end up needing more storage space in the end. Choosing the larger option also helps disguise more of the plug sockets and cables on that wall which can look insigthly when your sat on the sofa. In order for rooms to feel relaxed and have flow, where possible it's also important to maintain balance but centreing items to each other. Therefore i agree the TV should sit in the middle of the side board. I would also bring the TV down further on the wall. You don't want to be craning your neck and eyes up to look at the TV when sat on the sofa. I'd love to work with you on your interior project.
