Need help with the furniture/arrangement of the living room!

10 years ago

Need help deciding what type of sofa/armchair/storage and colour scheme would look best in this room. I would be looking into something contemporary style to go nicely with Victorian style bay window and wallpaper. Would consider repainting but not too keen as renting the property.

What an awesome place. The white walls look awesome with the wallpaper. If it were me, I would add lots of color in art and accessories. Modern style furniture. I see turquoise in there!

Hi, you have an interesting shaped room. I think you should form a right angle with 2 of the sofas and put the rug with them to unite the sitting area, at the window end. The shelves are not really helping with storage so I would be tempted to move them to the narrow end of the room where the dark grey sofa is now or editing the contents so you don't need them. If I understand the photo right, there are 3 sofas in the room. I would sell one on gumtree and buy a storage coffee table or blanket box to keep toys in. Toys expand to fill the space available so perhaps they could be stored in the dining room so there's space for you to relax in the sitting room after kids bedtime. Because the pink is to stay I would paint the other walls navy and find some huge colourful pink and navy throws to cover the sofas.

If you're keen to keep the existing furniture then the couches need to stay as they are - you can't block the opening or the cupboards. So the only option would be to change he actual furniture.

Hi N K hope the move is going well and you are enjoying the new home. what you can do to combat this issue of off-centering is use a simple hook and grip to loop the cable over from the outlet so that you get a centre hang. Please see image below. There isnt an exact science to hanging heights as everyone is different, but you should try offering it up and seeing what works best for you so that you do not have to keep changing it for watching the tv. hope this helps

Black and White never goes out of style and the light in your room is killer! If you're into something chic and interesting find the artwork first. It does not have to be expensive at all. Color and size will be the most important things to focus on. To tie the fireplace and the cabinet together, use several pieces of art, maybe a mirror, and one or two white objects hung on the wall. One piece of art (a poster, print, or photo) should be larger than the rest and hung over the FP. Then build the arrangement out to include the wall over your cabinet.
Treat the cabinet like a Bar by placing a tray and drinkware on top. I think that putting furniture in a loose and casual arrangement will look awsome and allow you to move things around according to the occassion. A loveseat with a curvy back and unmatched chairs will keep it feeling open and light. An animal hide rug and one tall floor lamp swooping over from the side of the window and giving you light at the center of the room might work for you. When you have a group of people coming say for dinner, a round expandable table in the alcove can be a plus.
All the best with your place, it's killer!
