Have a cushion made, or maybe you can locate on the right size, and make it a seating area

I moved the doorway to my bathroom and it was worth every penny if it means you can get a better arrangement, but exploring all the options first is best to avoid the hassle. Personally i would put the TV in the corner labelled 'wasted space', put the sofa where the bookcase is, put the armchairs in much the same place but perhaps more in a straight line with the fireplace and the coffee table in the middle. It looks like all your furniture hugs the walls, but it will make the room seem a lot less long and narrow if the flow was broken up a bit in the middle. Then I would move the book case over where the TV is, add a snuggler in the bay window and perhaps a sideboard (or guitars) to the right on the wall across from where the TV currently is. It would almost be like splitting the room in to two different spaces for two different purposes. The guitars and books near the window for light and relaxation and the furniture in a social setting without being center around the tv entirely but in a good view as well. My room is equally as awkward and I am still trying to figure it out so best of luck to you!

Hi Benjamin. I'd bring your formal sofas back in, I think they're each better suited to the rooms and purpose. the large sofa would go opposite the fire And agree with others to leave the walkway behind. However I'm not sure the other sofa will fit without overlapping... If it doesnt And it can be done in stages, I'd go for an upholstered footstool and either 1 or 2 chairs angled in front of the bookcase (love that idea!) facing the sofa. Agree with above, the rug will zone the area and you'll lose that corridor feeling. Once you've decided layout think about side tables to add lamps for a cosy feel. Art on that bare wall will also help. I love the inky blue, are the other walls F&B blackened? Just wondering if a warmer stone colour will cosy it up, perhaps F&B purbeck stone depending on which way the room faces?

Me personally I would try to “zone” the areas as two separate areas. Firstly some nice custom built shelving either side of the fireplace for books/ornaments/ picture frames etc. Then like suggested above, I would make a study by the window with a desk; where the sofa is and shelving under the pitched ceiling opposite. A tall house plant would look good there to the left of the window to balance out the window being off centre and an area rug to tie it altogether :)

Hello, I think the third one will offer better viewing of the TV but the communication between sofas and the use of the bay will be better in the second one. I like how the view looks as you enter. I would place a console in the bay behind the sofa. I hope it helps :) Gina
