I'd appreciate the name of the people who the bench seating

2 years ago

I might be able to produce the seat cushions myself, but would be apprehensive about the rear support: is this fixed to the wall? I would also appreciate the upholsterers name.

Living room seating layout

What is the door by the arch to the kitchen? I would suggest that you lose the door and the arch and make an arch to the dining room if feasible. If not, does the arch to the dining room need to be so large? You could make the space smaller and put up a stud wall therefore giving yourself more wall space. Re. furniture think square rather than curved and narrow arms to the seating. Re. swivel brackets, they work a treat and are the way forward for modern homes. My mother lives in a new build and she rmoved the fireplace as it was decorative and she put a sideboard there as a feature and above that a wall mounted tv on a bracket. It serves the lounge and she swings it out to face the dining room when she is dining alone and feels like a tv dinner. Instad of an arch she has tri-fold modern oak glazed doors so the space can be separated when need. Where you have the sideboard in your dining room she has a breakfast bar into the kitchen. It works a treat.

kitchen Island - struggling to find pictures of island seating layout

Oh, you sound so stressed! Other than the 3D rendering, I would recommend the old cardboard box trick to show how tight all the spaces are. Not only will you not be able to stand in front of your beautiful sleek drawers when you open them - you'll have to stand next to them - imagine coming in the door from the hall with a bag of shopping or your kids coming in with backpacks and then sliding through an 87 cm space. You need a lot more circulation space for a comfortable, working kitchen AND you won't be able to visually appreciate this island of your dreams where it is currently (as Jonathan said). Perhaps move the kitchen and island down in front of the internal bifold doors so you can see the island from a distance and gain more width and then have the seating at the end with the TV on the wall you already suggested, like this photo that J posted: Good luck!

Thank you Jonathan for your thoughts. We have worked with an architect to plan the house. The kitchen at the moment is an the first floor but it means we feel we live in a flat with little access to the garden. It is always an intention to spend time outside, especially meal times...it just never happens when everything has to be carried down to the outdoor. Interesting to have other perceptions. I will look closely at you living room layout suggestion though, hadn't thought of the layout you suggested. This would be more L shaped as the plan suggests. We can move doors, tv points and the fireplace could perhaps be evened up on the wall.

Just reading the comments and suggestions on here shows the capacity for lots of variations possible for a design in this size of space. Have you considered investing some time working with one designer - who you can work with to produce a layout that ticks your boxes and then shopping around with the finished plans - (this is the kind of service we provide ) it may be a bit less confusing than several people ‘having a go ‘ - although it’s always great to get others opinions on Houzz, and of course it’s lovely that they are offering you this help at no cost. But might be worth considering, as you will be living with the results for a long time!
