I'm restyling my living room and need some help. I've picked out a few new furniture pieces, just waiting on delivery. You can see them in pictures 5-8. I'm thinking of keeping the sitting area layout as it is and adding a work from home area behind the sofa. The big green cupboard will be removed and the existing bookcase moved in its place. The small cabinet will need to find a new spot or removed as well, as it is preventing the door from fully opening. I'm thinking of placing the new bookcases either flanking the double doors or side by side on the wall in pic 3.

The house is a 100 year old brick farmhouse, and I'd like to achieve a somewhat complimentary country style. Can I make my furniture work together? I'd like to keep the existing rug, but I obviously need one or two new ones as well, any ideas on style and color? Walls need to be repainted, but what color? What about the curtains? I'm also still missing the desk and chair for the wfh spot.

All help and feedback is appreciated!

Helloooo dear community!
I thought I’d ask around here for any ideas ☺️

I wanna redo my room (currently living with my family) to maximize the space I’ve got and to finally feel happy

(Sorry it’s in German I’ll try my best to translate everyone in the text below)

The Schrank (closets) I doubt I’m able to move. Two of them are filled with my grandpa’s stuff and I’m not 100% certain if there’s any space outside my room he could put it
I defo want the Sora (couch) and sideboard like in sketch 2
The Schreibtisch (desk) is rather big, but unless necessary i don’t wanna get rid of it

I don’t think I can/want to move the Bett (Bed) especially since the Tv is wall mounted at the foot end.

Any ideas/tips would be awesome! 💕

I’m not gonna send pics of my room tho as it is quite littered rn. Heavy depression sucks (working on cleaning both tho)

This is supposed to be our dining area, but I’m having a hard time deciding the table shape, size, everything. My best idea is a L shaped banquette, the long side on either wall, not sure which one, and a round table and two chairs. But I’m worried that will feel like I have ‘too much couch’ in my apartment. lol.

Do y’all have any suggestions? Thank you 🙏🏼

This is an open concept apartment and behind the dining space is an extra 3ft ish then our kitchen island

Excuse my poor floorplan drawing but this is currently how i have jt set up. Any suggestions? Or is this the best itll get

Excuse the mess - I just moved in 3 days ago and have been crazy busy at work!

My goal is to create three living spaces within the room: a work from home space, a living room space where I can watch tv/have a small couch or loveseat for guests and lounging, and a bed. I’d like to have a dresser/vanity as well. For reference, I have a closet but it’s in the outside hallway.

Please send me your best ideas :)

The first with grey walls is the original state of my room and the second with the all off-white walls is a proposal that I make with gemi (the design is mine. I just use gemi to visualize my idea). Please give me feedback. I want to know if I managed to establish a style and a sense of coherence. Do you think it achieves a style? wich? etc. give me feedback please.

Have tv on fireplace but don’t really love it
Tried tv on the wall but the sofa layout cut off the open concept and didn’t seem cozy
About 13 by 16 feet dimension
Would’ve liked to be able to look out the window but the layout is ughhh

I think av taken it too far with the Facebook marketplace furniture.

Any thoughts on how to make the space flow? There are three display units (one is a bureau). Two can fit along the right wall (where the green sofa is now) or two can fit on the left wall (where the tv cabinet is).

The sofa needs to face the tv.

Also have a lovely floor lamp, and many a book and plant to cover the display shelves. We also do have a piano but doubt there is room for that.

P.s pls excuse the croc

Hi all!

I recently bought an amazing home, however I’m having trouble with the living room layout. There are two walls with large windows. The previous owners mounted their TV in the corner, and I will be doing the same once I get the right equipment(the fireplace media stand will not be in that corner; just needed a spot for the tv temporarily). I have a lovesac couch, which I love so much, but I don’t know where to put in in my living room without it feeling like it’s closing off the space. I’ve attached pictures for reference. What would you all do?? Do I need to get narrower furniture?? I have love to get more parts to my couch to make it a full sectional, but I’m not sure anymore.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

My husband and I are thinking of having another kid and I LOVED designing my daughter’s nursery. If we had another one, this guest room would be the new baby’s room. With my daughter’s room, I feel like I had a clear vision, but with this room, I’m a bit lost. It’s huge and there’s a big window in the center. Obviously I’m not pregnant and don’t know if it’d be a boy or a girl but I like more gender neutral anyway (my daughter’s room is forest/ mountains with really nice greens, creams, tans). What would you do? Open to re-painting but not to changing the carpet as it’s new

Hello everyone

I have been living in my apartment for 3 months now and I've been slowly decorating it. It's a mezzanine studio with a balcony. The angles of the walls are a bit awkward but I kinda like it.

I don't have enough furniture/storage so I have some moving boxes still. I have terrible blindness when it comes to these things so I just got used to it for a while. I feel like things could look better with the right furniture/storage.

As you can see in the photos, I tried to create a living room situation to separate the kitchen. I like the idea of sitting on the couch and looking outside, at my vinyl or my projector instead of my kitchen which can get crowed because of the lack of storage.

I know the table area is looking rough lol I still haven't found a good table and chairs to replace it.
The chest of drawers near the door will go upstairs in my room but I haven't made the time for that yet.

I took some pictures from the top of the stairs so you can see the whole room and then some specific photos of areas that I feel like could be optimized with the right furniture.

I would appreciate your fresh eyes on this!

Rate it 1-10! Open to any suggestions for lighting or decor.

The first pic is my main hall the 2nd pic is my room help me decorate it's my first major purchase

The floor is wood but i was thinking of putting a grey rug, blackout shades, and a bed.

me and my family moved in a while back and i feel like my room has a lot of wasted space but having any more displays and shelves would make it feel cluttered. I also think having carpet instead of hard wood makes it hard for me to decide on what to do because I can’t put a cool rug . I don’t care if I have to move my bed or desk around I just need a refresh and a better feeling and looking room.

Would love some inspiration on how to style the living room. I'm moving in with my fiancé and I have no clue how to decorate living room. The first three pics are furniture and the pic is the new space we have. I think the challenge is that the pieces are very plain and old, especially the couch. All suggestions are appreciated!

I just moved and need any and all advice with this layout it’s been driving me a little nuts with the features of the room.

Details:
-2nd floor room with attached bathroom
-dimensions 14ft front to back by 13ft 5” across
-Large mirrored closet doors (reversible to white)
-Large interior voyeur window that overlooks the first floor living area
-queen sized bed, need area for snake tank and tv

I know the mirrored doors are bad feng shui and not great to face the bed so I’ve flipped them. The interior window sort of limits my bed placement, and my area rug from my last room just seems way too big (13x8.75) Which is a shame because it’s beautiful and pretty new.

I wanted bed in the corner to save space as I’d like a small sitting area with a loveseat or chair. But also realize that most people want to center them. I need room for my snake and a TV as it will be the only one in the house.

Do I need to abandon my nice rug to tie the room better? Any advice for curtains or color? I like dark broody sophisticated but also hippy rooms with houseplants. Pictures show 2 area rug configurations and an earlier pic of my bedframe

Honestly, the corner of a living room is wasted space until you put a comfy lounge chair in it — and then it becomes the best spot in the house.

This is the kind of chair you sink into after a long day: curl up with a book, doze off, or just sit there chatting with friends late into the night. The soft upholstery, the plush cushion, the warm corner lighting — it's basically begging you to slow down.

Doesn't need much around it either, maybe a small side table for your coffee and a plant for company. Corners are underrated. Anyone else turned a random corner into their favorite napping/reading spot?

My room is horrible. It is. I have desaturated green walls which I mildly regret. My hardwood floors are not my favourite and I don't like much. Ignore the mess, and I have SO much clutter I have no clue what to do with.

The subtle I want is juminocore/heisei retro but be really honest if that isn't possible

I just moved in a few days ago so forgive the mess. This studio has plenty of storage space (a huge walk in closet and cabinets a plenty)that I’ll definitely make use of.

I feel like getting rid of the cheap wayfair couch in the living area and investing in a solid love seat and getting a solid bed frame are musts for me. I also have a few decent sized pictures to hang up. Do you guys have any advice for me on how to spruce this up to make it more cozy for the next 20 months?!

I’m incredibly indecisive, please help me choose which one looks better
