Help with family room
We are looking for either a love seat or two small chairs, rug, coffee table, art for the walls and soft furnishings. The curtains and wall colour (f&b elephants breath) have to remain.
I like the idea of contrasting chair(s) and colour added through cushions and perhaps a footstool.
Help!

7 years agoHi Alexa. It's a lovely room and beautiful sofa! I'm not sure if this option is too bright/bold for you. The tv trunk is lovely but I wonder if you need something bigger for the alcove? On the wall adjacent to the door I'd add a sideboard or console depending on whether you need storage or not, swoon editions have some great cabinets that I think will work with the floor. Then add a floor lamp in the corner to sit behind the chair. Can the sofa be moved down a little (and pics aligned) then add a matching side table? The footstool is also loaf and would go for a more mustard colour but couldn't get a pic. You can add a tray for accessories/drinks etc (have a look at Notre monde trays). I think the sofa would also work well with moss green so will look for another option!

Comments (10)You could cover the short wall at the back in (white) storage. This Eket system from Ikea has the option to add some colours too. I'd do the main part white and add perhaps some orange & pink (referring to the copper in the kitchen) and/or blue open storage boxes. Also add lights and lots of bright coloured cushions on the sofa. Ikea also has LED light panels with wireless control, that you can hang on the wall above the sofa. You could hang three in a row for example, or hang 6 or so together to form a fake window....See Morefamily room needs decor... need some help.
Comments (10)It’s a lovely room but due to the number of doors it doesn’t feel quite like a room in its own right. I might consider painting the doors in the wall colour which will help enormously (you could also add curtains), As celery girl said I think a large rug where the front feet of the furniture sit on the rug will also have the same effect and also agree re the plant and art. I would add an accent colour and bring in both texture and pattern. I think the room would also benefit from a floor lamp and table lamp/s to cosy it up. It’s hard to make shopping suggestions as you’re not in the uk but perhaps post things you find for comment? I’d also move the water dispenser by the stairs...See Morelayout help family room
Comments (5)How often do the bar stools get used? If not very often you could butt a long (extending?) table directly up to the peninsular with up to three chairs either side. Extra dining chairs could be stored as bedroom chairs if you ever need to pull it more centred into the room to use each end of the table. But on a daily basis this would give you the option of keeping a sofa (in whichever position you prefer of where you've got them now) and perhaps replacing the other sofa with a shallow sideboard for more storage or poss to place the tv above so it can be seen from most areas of the room....See MoreKitchen diner family room Help needed.
Comments (17)I’m sorry but I’ve got no idea how to do that. I mean to have your kitchen along the wall where the door opens into the garden, then from the left hand side wall you could have a breakfast bar/units coming out parallel to the kitchen with the sofa behind the bar area facing the wall opposite the kitchen. The tv would be on the left hand side on the wall opposite the kitchen/sofa. The dining table could then be put on the right hand side near to where the door goes into the hallway. I hope I’ve explained that a bit better....See MoreAlexa B

7 years agoHi there! We recently completed a project with a very similar sofa, which could give you some ideas. The sofa is quite a statement so in here we tries to keep everything else quite neutral.

7 years agoHi Alexa. I would suggest a bigger TV stand that offers you storage as well. I've attached some pictures of the TV stands we can supply. Also, I think our upholstered coffee table would give a really nice and modern feel to the room.
