Comments (35)Hi, Reviving a bit of an old post here with some more thoughts. I agree with everyone that the sofa is probably best looking onto the window but having given it a try it makes the TV pretty much not visible unfortunately. I can't think of anywhere that I could place the TV that would give a good angle for the sofa in that position. (Other than pulling it out from the wall and angling it, which looked pretty poor when I tried it) Open to suggestions though. I may just have to move the sofa back a little to create slightly more room for chairs. I think if I put it right up against the wall the space will possibly be too big for conversation. In the end I've actually grown to like the eames chair and chesterfield combo so will just add one more chair now. either on the same side as the current chair or two chairs facing each other at different sides of the sofa. :) @Emily - The dinning table is further away from the kitchen in the window thats true. The alternative I think would be to shift everything up towards the bay window more and put the dinning table at the other end of the room. I think that might look a little odd since the fireplace is in the centre?...See Moreideas re furnishing cottage living room
Comments (7)I know a lot of people spend time taking down walls in old cottages to claw back space. However, i'd put the wall back where the stairs are. You can then make this in to a coat / storage cupboard. It creates a plain canvas. No offence, but the bannisters are not original and in my opinion detract from the original period features. Therefore, putting the wall up will actually make the room look larger and disguise the hand rail. The other problem is two radiators. A room of these dimensions should not need two raidators. Therefore, remove the one from under the window giving you back more space and if necessary up rate the one behind the sofa. Bring the small sofa forwards to the Upright post thus letting the radiator do it's job. I think you probably have room for a small armchair to the right of the fireplace at the bottom of the stairs, but for now i've shown in to the left....See MoreHow to decorate/furnish this through lounge/diner?
Comments (21)@sonia I'm leaning towards grey walls too. My bedroom is going to be goose dawn and teal tension (I think!) so I'm wondering about doing the living room in the same greytl bulk buy paint! It's a bit darker than polished pebble though. I like those pics and I have a rose gold standing lamp already... Here with my desk (grey and rose gold)...See Morebigreader
