Often we find when we move into a new home the furnishings we had purchased for the previous don't work for the new. If you are wanting to make this a duo functioning room with TV and fireplace as a focus than you may have to rethink the blue sofa. You can keep a petite style to the furnishings, no oversized anything. My first thought is to push the TV into the corner with all the wiring. Then add a small scale sectional that is really just a long sofa with a chaise at the window side, and long so that it stretches in front of the fireplace. This allows you to have both views, one when TV is the motive and one when relaxing in front of the fire is. On the side of the fireplace closer to the dining set I would place a smaller "pull-up" chair that hugs the fireplace but is angled towards the sofa. You can add cubes or a small upholstered cocktail ottoman on the TV side of the sofa. Then add a narrow rug that ties the grouping together. Match the curtains on the patio door to the curtains on the window and add some fun art above the fireplace. Accents can always come after you have your arrangement planned. Have fun!
