help me decide where to put my TV in this living room
Comments (6)Hello Maria, It's an interesting room actually and firstly my suggestion is to paint the orange white as a base. You can then gauge light levels more easily which would then inform you as to how to treat the room. Removing the balustrade completely opens the room as the steps and split level arrangement can still denote separation.. Which you can use accordingly either by situating sofa or perhaps a console and then sofa or even just a console or low cabinet here with something decorative on it.. ... Viewing the back of a sofa or low piece with something lovely like a vase and floral arrangement or something decorative is a rather nice way to introduce if you like, another area of a room and give it a sleeker form of separation if that is required.. I also rather like the idea of having a more open split level arrangement.... Perhaps consider a fire that you can use.. Look into flueless fires as an alternative.. OR possibly even a small black wood burning stove with a twin wall flue. There are options you can research and look into which I think could be nice.. Store a pile of logs underneath the space is ideal. If you want to lighten the floor consider rugs and other layers here that can really be used as a basis for your design.. Placing the sofa facing the fireplace is really an idea focal point.. with armchair opposite angled towards the sofa and fireplace.. It could be a 3 seater with a matching square foot stool which you can sit at one end to create a chaise longue arrangement for something less formal.. Another idea I like is to have again a sofa facing the fireplace and then possibly two chairs with a small table in between at the side with their backs to the sliding door, but in a way that means they don't block the view or flow of the room.. Try things out and see what works for you and the room... You want to keep flow through the space and decorate as 1 space even if the rooms are functioning separately.. Layering colour is an ideal way to decorate and add texture. Situating a flat screen in a cabinet is a nice way to hide the tv as it's not what you want people to focus on when they come to your home.. So perhaps take out the shelving entirely in favour of a cabinet that could house the screen when you want to watch a film etc. There are really some fantastic elements to your new home- the rads are fantastic and I do like the fireplace.. I think you could make this fabulous.. Add textural and warm coloured elements to the sofa arms etc.. I can see earthy and warm tones with rich luxuriant additions.. such as cushions, throws and large floral arrangements for coffee table or side tables to add interest and finish the space .... :))...See MoreTV unit decoration challenge s
Comments (6)From looking at the picture I'd say the radiator and the TV set up are clashing with each other for space. If you can sacrifice the radiator and you have enough heat from elsewhere in the room then you can make that area just about the TV unit. I'd also recommend hiding the cables from the TV into the wall as well. Do you know if that wall is a stud wall or a brick wall? Stud would be very easy to conceal the cables, brick would be a little bit messier....See MoreBESTA Ikea TV unit - what shape/combination?

Comments (8)Hi Emma, I think your living room needs some life. I think continuing the warm style of the fireplace is the best choice, I can see that happening: A large light carpet, in the center of the room, could be accompanied by a coffee table and maybe a plant in the corner, along with a floor lamp. For the color scheme, I would keep the neutral, earth tones. Surely paintings, prints and small furnishings will do the rest. Good job!...See More- 10 years ago
