Hello Heidi, Firstly it's a great room and lots of potential here. You could paint the feature wall with the fireplace a slightly darker shade of something that compliments the sofas.. In this way you instantly create a focus for the room and the fireplace does just that. I'd like to suggest that you place the sofa in line with the fireplace. Then 1 armchair I would angle to the left of the fireplace if you're looking at it. The book case is a reach away when wanting to read but I'd turn it round to frame the doors.. It might be a nice idea to actually move the other bookcase over to place on the other side... ie where the chest of drawers is.. So they both frame the doors... Paint the mirror frame and hang this... Keep some space free on the mantle as this gives the fire room to become a bit more expansive... Why not place the chest of drawers to the left of the fireplace behind the armchair... You can house toys and things here. It's both elegant and a good way to frame the fireplace as you don't have a chimney breast.. On the other find a low side table or a low cabinet.. You could house the television on this pretty much as it is currently.. Keep drinks in the cabinet or something, so they have functions and multiple uses.. Differing heights adds to interest here and it could be good to hang that 1 picture on the rear of the sofa wall with the others... Then there is a bit of room for the little one's to play as you can place the little white table and chairs near the window where it's warm with the rad. Find a nice lampshade for the central light and then place the table lamp close to the sofa.. possibly one with the armchair.. So you have pools of light in different areas and the room is ambient. You may find you do without the central light all together.. So really the key here is that I don't think you need to buy anything else and indeed I feel it would spoil the flow to add more seating.... Scatter the cushions so they are fewer, one or two at 1 end and 1 or two on the armchair.... maybe make a seating pile for the little ones with any left over.. : ))

Great chair and navy is my favourite (and go to) colour... have you added gold detail to a paint project before? I'm asking because it can be a bit of a learning curve to get it in the right place/right amount...I wonder if you add the gold as piping to the velvet seat cushion instead (think that is what rinq is saying too) and then pick up gold in other areas of the room with mirrors and accessories? Add a floral cushion like the one pic from Gerty above and you have yourself one classy looking chair! Good luck...I love restyling furniture. So rewarding! xx

You could have a tall narrow mirror (rectangular or oval) centred on the tap, and therefore narrower than the sink. Or, you could cover the whole wall to the edge of the window cill in mirror. Perhaps built out on a slight frame to cover the boxed pipework too. This could be made to measure or you coujd do it on a budget with mirror tiles. Either way you could divide it with a shelf or two. Another option would be to create a mirror wall incorporating an integral cabinet, using the space you'd get building the wall out to frame the boxed pipework.

Hi, dear reader and contributor @HomeMood Interior Design. I am overwhelmed with receiving an answer and with your suggestions! I have been sleeping on this for a long time now (over an year) and I came to a point when I need to know! :) Anyone else knows the feeling? The reason I was only seeing my option in blue as possible was symmetry. I fully agree with the suggestion of using two armchairs instead of the three chairs. Great thing is, I have both the armchairs and the chairs so I can experiment with both. But in the bottom of my heart, I really wanted and needed someone to come and tell me that it is possible to do this another way! And - did I create that through the law of attraction? Here is a link to the table we have to use with the soffa, and it is a convertible! (i.e it grows into a dining table!) https://youtu.be/UOeYWYCNHQY My only concern remains that in the alternative option you are suggesting (and I was longing for!) only 1.5 seats of the soffa get a TV view and 1.5 seats get a fireplace view. Would an L-shape/soffa plus one armchiar work, along with moving the book shelf to the dining area? Many thanks P.S. I've also attached a picture of the table (it's not round though) and what I had in mind as for the chairs in front of the fireplace.
