Ideas on making this small wall a fire place/the feature of our lounge

last year

We have recently bought a house, we love it but i would love to do something with this wall and turn it into more of a nice feature in the living room, we haven’t got a chimney but i am going to buy an electric log burner, and would love to by a beam too, then have the TV above on the wall, so basically just want some nice cosy ideas to turn this into like a fireplace? :) thank you (on the photo it’s the wall with the tv on) Not a huge space but i’m sure we can do something with it ?

I love gallery walls so yes that would work :). What I mean it put the rectangular lamp on top of the unit at the side of the tv, you will need to find something taller for the other side to balance it out. Could the tall candle holder find another home maybe?

I'm not sure making the fireplace look heavier would be a good idea. However rather than fight the off centre I would work with it. Possibly wall hang the TV to the right of the fireplace it looks as if that would make it quite good for viewing from the sofa. Get a bigger rug which would still be off centred but would pull in/integrate the soa area more. I wouldn't put the TV in front of the window as the blockage of the view could feel negative and if the sun shines through during the day difficult to see TV without drawing curtains. What about a mirror above the fireplace you seem to have a window at each end of the space so a mirror could act like a third window reflecting light and giving weight to that are away from the TV. A window seat could work nicely.

Hi Diana. Re your windows I would look at something like this (dining room pics in link) http://www.drivenbydecor.com/2015/05/window-treatments-tricky-recessed-corner-windows.html 0r have a voile blind inside the recess and the curtains hung outside to give more height to the room. I'd go for a pole that doesn't contrast with the wall colour. Farrow and ball blackened may work for the walls (which way does the room face? I'm assuming some of the pics are a little dark as you didn't have any light behind you when taking the pic?!). Were you planning on dressing the feature window? As you've got cool and warm greys I'd layer them so a warm grey sofa with a cool grey or maybe blue ikat cushion. I'd have seating at right angles to the fire, sofa to the right of the fire with a lamp table closest to the fire and 2 accent chairs opposite, patterned ones might be nice. I'd go for large art over the fire rather than a mirror as you've got the window, perhaps a landscape. In terms of the look you want, perhaps look at velvet for the sofa. Lamps will add cosiness, a driftwood lamp will give the natural look. Add texture for the seating, perhaps a patterned cushion in front of a textured one and a textured throw on the other arm of the sofa. Also use plants and perhaps some faux flowers (I like oka faux hydrangea but it needs to be mixed with foliage). Perhaps a brass glass coffee table to add some warmth with some coffee tables books and the flowers!

I would personally have linear storage/ shelves the whole wall, with bench/ sideboard closed storage along on floor ... to store books, tv, electronic stuff, toys, decorative objects ... even maybe have a little bench area for kids .... difficult to explain, so I attached photos! Would be so practical whilst beautiful! Ps: try not to put the tv on wall, but rather on a low furniture!!
