Hi robo25267, my sister has a similar lay out, all windows and doors plus a staircase that leaves little wall space for furniture. I am not sure if this would work for you as it is difficult to see the space properly in the pics and also the dimensions of the furniture might not work. But could you turn the lounge to face the sliding doors (good feng shui!) and butt it up either 1. against the stair corner? The TVC could move to where the single white chair is ( on an angle as it is a big telly) and then single chairs opposite, one where the tv is now, the other in the corner near the sliding doors. 2 on its left side against the wall between the windows? I am not sure if that leaves enough space to get past the lounge and the wall in either case. The maroon wall seems the best space for the TV but it is the largest wall so I see why you have it configured as it is now. If they fail, try swapping the lounge and chairs to the other wall and the tv against the maroon wall. The lounge could be as close as possible to the tv which let's you walk behind it along the window wall to the stairs? I know, not ideal to have a tv facing windows but your curtains would help.

Cheapest thing to do would be to paint the doors put a bit of timber benchtop from Bunnings and perhaps mirror the back panel, but where's the Bar Fridge going or are you planning a bigger fridge nest to this. As Louie suggested it might be better to get rid of the old as there's no place for a much needed Bar Fridge, A Barn door of whatever style suits you would work well, you can pick up second hand doors with character for this. Then again some Bunnings timber benchtop , (Mel) fitted & supported by beams screwed into the rear and sides of the nook and hidden by a strip across the front as your bench top. With a bar fridge under this, floating shelves above on the wall for bottles /glasses and DVD player etc, much easier to use the DVD when it's not in a cupboard love the room.

Thanks for your lovely comments Betty, our clients have had many Happy Hours with their new bar

Hi me me EC Group are a small Australian mill that were previously known as Edwardstown Carpets. They have traditionally made a good product. The carpet you are looking at is a BCF solution dyed nylon. This means that the fibre is a Bulk Continuous Fibre (ie a continuous length) nylon that has had the colour mixed into it while the nylon was still a liquid (and not applied afterwards). It gives it a much greater resistance to staining and soiling (be aware that it has no separate stain treatment) and means that it also resists fading in direct sunlight very well. As far as the durability of it is concerned, the ratings have evolved to a two tier level of Extra Heavy Duty now, being a 5 and a 6 star. Avenue is a 5 star which is reflected in its' light commercial rating. Being a 25oz I would say it would be a good performer for bedrooms and living areas but will tend to flatten down in doorways, stairs or passages. Without knowing the areas intended we would probably suggest also looking at the Stoney River which is similar but a slightly heavier pile weight and a 6 star rating. Being a solution dyed nylon means it also responds well to being steam cleaned which tends to make it 'bloom' again. Cheers
