Room Layout Help!

Hey, looking to create an office/living space in this room. What would be your ideas for furniture styles, placement and storage ideas for DVDs and Games? All furniture and decor can be changed except for the fireplace, so a complete blank canvas :)

What a gorgeous room. Can the shelving unit go on the back wall if there’s room as it looks odd where it is? Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing! Not much help am I?

Instead of the tall shelf, 2 lower cabinets on the 2 side of the fireplace would look better and more proportional, either in creamy or matching wood. Also if you want an office desk 2 big sofa take too much space. So instead one sofa and one armchair would be better. Another idea if you put a longer cabinet under the tv with decorative objects, but still armchair instead of that sofa.

Colours are nice natural, however I would personally put a bit more colour, darker warmer toned decoration, beside the black and mustard e rusty red

Hello, Mark! I'm Gabriela, a designer from Akiva Projects. First of all, you really have great ideas for your lounge/dining room! I don't see why not leave the fireplace where it is now and still do what you want - a false chimney breast built with an electric fire and TV built into it. By doing that you would have an advantage on your side: you will have the possibility of building a storage in the same wall of the fireplace using the thickness of the pillars that you have - a great way of blending them on the room! I really think that this could add value to your lifestyle. We offer a fantastic design service and would be happy to offer our advice. Have a look at our page, and please get in contact for an initial conversation. We are an award winning company renowned for our customer service and can offer complete guidance.

Consider putting the tv in the alcove with a bench seat in front. A rise and fall table can tradition from a coffee table into a dining table as you need it. Folding dining chairs can be hidden behind the sofa until you need them or consider having an ottoman that can be either extra sitting space in the living room or dining seating as required.

Hi Chelsey, That's a lovely big space! I have put together a floor plan option for you with the sofa opposite your fireplace and a cosy reading area by the window. Depending on where exactly your fireplace is located, you can create a lovely contemporary composition with your TV. Have a look at the quick model I have put together. Hopefully this will help you visualise it a bit better! Good luck with designing this space! It will be beautiful :) Vera

I don’t think you have many options other than a long sofa opposite the tv and potentially a small armchair where the corner of the kitchen wall is and have it angled towards the sofa. i’d zone the area with a larger rug though so all front feet of the furniture sit on it. Use a dining chair for the armchair and masking tape/sheets etc for the sofa to mock it up to see how it feels. i think anything actually blocking the cupboard would look wrong as well as being impractical unless you changed access from the hall. You also try a chaise sofa with the chaise under the window and move the floor lamp so it’s to the left of where the tv is now and swap your dining one to the opposite corner. It’s not really my forte but will moving the tv definitely improve the signal?

Seems a shame to change the lounge aspect as it's really nice ( except for the abnormally high fireplace ). Remove the empty shelving unit, put the cupboard from the bottom of the stairs in to that space by the left of the fireplace. I'd put the T.V on that instead of the wall, but it's ok where it is. Then maybe, you could do an 'office in a cupboard' type affair at the bottom of the stairs so that it doesn't interfere with the rest of the lounge.

It looks like a lovely room so there certainly doesn't need to be any changes! What don't you like and what exactly are your office requirements? Also what styles and colours do you like If you do make any changes? I think I'd be tempted to try the sofa under the windows on the opposite wall which should open the room up a little more. You should then be able to move the other sofa out a few inches more (as it won't be directly by the stair gate). I would then put the tv to the right of the fire on a swing out bracket. You could paint/paper this wall a darker tone so the tv blends in a bit more with low storage either side. You could add a mirror to the left of the fire and art over the sofa
