Living room layout help - sofas and TV

last year

We’re planning on removing a section of wall from out living room, replacing with glass panel / door, to allow nicer views out to the garden.

Currently layout in photos.

Unsure about where to place the sofas and TV. Ideally we wanted the 3 seater to look out to the garden, rather than facing one of the other walls but not sure if everything will fit - ideally don’t want any / much furniture in front of the new windows.

The brick which currently houses the TV we’re planning on removing so the wall is a bit more flush, and turn the cubby holes into storage.

Currently in the room are a 3 seater, 2 seater and a 1.5 love seat, plus TV (we’ll probably loose the coffee table in favour of a footstool of some sort) We’re a family of 5, with two dogs, so ideally we don’t want to loose much seating.

Any ideas / suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Ben Mavely, it looks like you have a lovely home and we love the wooden beams! Would you opt for a corner sofa perhaps instead of two sofas? With the room being rectangular it is a good idea to move the sofas away from the walls and zoning areas with rugs always works great.

We are an affordable online interior design company and can look at the layout for you to make the most out of the space that works for you and your family and of course budget as we can shop from anywhere for you! Feel free to drop us a message. You can find out more on our website too - www.thelivinghouse.co.uk

yes, it would in terms of size. My concern is that all the sitting area then would end up oriented towards that area, and the room might look weird or asymmetrical...? I am enclosing a few more picture of the fireplace area seen from the front, so that you can judge better. The other alternative that comes to mind would be to make the fireplace wall a bit wider, so that it fits the TV above... do you think that´s possible? Thanks so much!

Hi Kate, If you were to go with your original idea which looks great, we can suggest a few chaise sofas and matching straight sofas to fit your space. You will be able to fit at least 3 people on the chaise sofas and 2-3 on the smaller sofas. All of these sofas are available in a huge range of fabrics with some bespoke options such as contrast piping, leg colour and style, and matching designer fabric scatter cushions. 287cm x 185cm Arden Chaise sofa 165cm Arden Small Sofa 285cm x 175cm Galloway Chaise Sofa 160cm Galloway Small Sofa 294cm x 165cm Amy Chaise Sofa 150cm Amy Small Sofa We have many more styles available with matching chaise and sofas.

I think I'd put the T.V in corner A. It's the one least likely to get glare from the Windows. If your Sofa is along the line B /C ( don't know where the door is ), Then you will not be to close to the T.V. If the Sofa is in the middle then at a rough guess you're going to be well over 10-12 Feet away from corner A.............
