Need help with lounge layout
Comments (2)I obviously can't see where the door is but could you move the tv to the door wall and have the sofa opposite with its back to the window? In terms of the bay, either a small desk and chair, 2 occasional chairs with a small drinks table or a chaise longue...See MoreNeed help with my Lounge and Dining Room
Comments (16)hi ! lining up the sofa to a feature such as a fire place is a good start... but if moving the door complicates issues then maybe it might be easier to move the fireplace ? As it looks like its not got one at the moment ? so you'd be putting it in anyway ? personally i like a pair of chairs and a decent height table betweeen them in a bay ... somewhere to play chess etc ... its tricky to comment more without room sizes ... if the fire you are thinking of is a faux one, I'd suggest maybe consider sofa on existing tv wall, and tv/ fireplace on internal wall might offer up another option ? that way you could maybe have seating on the wall between dining and lounge and the external wall, and bay ? its quite nice to see seating when you walk in a room, (with pics above ) and then get the bonus of a feature like a fireplace when you are in there ! ...changing the internal doors to glazed might give a bit more light into hallway which might be nice ! if current are fire doors though - then keep as they are! ( if it has ground floor and more than one upstairs level they will / should be fire doors )...See MoreNeed help for my lounge!
Comments (16)Thanks Sherbert for your kind words. I love this room too. :) A few people are recommending Little Greene for paint, so will definitely purchase from there - especially as prices seem quite reasonble for luxury paint. In terms of the desk in the window, I'm not keen on that idea as we have a separate little cubby hole under the stairs which we'll use for a desk :) Also, we have two Moray armchairs arriving soon, which will either both (or one) be by the window along with a little table with a lamp on. In terms of the alcoves, I'd like to keep these as symmetrical as possible - we have the same alcove layout for our dining room (which is through from the lounge) as per this image. I'd like similar display cabinets in the alcoves in the dining room, and then keep the alcoves alongside the chimney breast clear in the lounge. I have looked at Purbeck Stone from Farrow & Ball for the chimney breast in the lounge which I think would compliment the colour of the sofa and chairs, which we could then accent with soft furnishings and ornaments/vases. Do you think this colour would look too dark in the lounge? Thanks....See MoreNeed help for my lounge room
