Hi Ellice, we have just (on Saturday) moved our side tables out and put our tall boys beside the bed because of storage issues as well. We have an old house with no built in storage. We thought we could build in a wardrobe in a small space but just can't make it work so have ordered a free standing wardrobe that will be where tall boys were. I am just not sure about it as I really loved my bedroom as it was. I will post a pic of as it is now since Saturday and as it was

What style bedding are you drawn too? What is the wall colour? Inspiration: Black and white (or off-white) with deeper green accent pillow. Though this room is not carpeted , I thought this room would give example of how the colours and wood tone work together.

Thanks so much for your input everyone. Those who had a look at my idea books, unfortunately they are super outdated and a couple of years old. SInce then we have moved and our style has slightly changed. I do think the majority are right in that a coffee table would be too crowded- Vy the tv unit supports the tv as it is not wall mounted. We mounted it but it looked so out of place that we reverted back to the tv unit. I think i will search for a nice side table to place in between the two recliners and leave the space in the middle. The trunk doesnt look great in the middle as its quite a bit higher than the chairs unfortunately! Thanks again for all your input!

We dont have any metal side tables exactly like this but we have a variety of black timber ones that have the same shelf and closed cupboard configuration. www.satara.com.au
