Big couch, narrow room, 3 entries
Comments (4)Ok thanks for the great additional info! I know the Jasper is hard to work with in a small space but what a beautiful, big comfy couch it is! Perfect for everyone to kick back on. I'm not sure what your budget is suttons06 but these would be my suggestions to create a space that functions a little better and frees up floor space for you. Your room needs a focal point and we can give it one! The large wall with the one artwork on it is our saviour! So, what you need to do is shift the Jasper onto the window wall. This will free of valuable floor space by removing the TV unit and also open up the doorways by having the chaise up against the wall (not hard up against it but aesthetically up against it). Of course you'd leave enough room to operate the blinds. This will stop glare on the TV and give you a nice large wall to hang the TV (on a bracket to rotate it in the direction of the viewers). The chaise section will block the other doorway but not as much because of the larger wall it would be up against. This setup will allow the TV wall to be the focal point of the room, anchoring the space with a purpose and focus which the room is lacking now. Either side of the TV, I would place artwork and family photos, framed in dark wood (same color as your new pendant, let's call it walnut for argument's sake) with white mats on floating shelves. You can also decorate with vases, books and sentimental items. The white will add a crisp, fresh neutral to an otherwise warm palette, balancing it out. I've attached some photos of similar layouts for you. What do you think? Then I would invest in a modern coffee table in the same walnut. A place for your coffee cup, some magazines, kids books and anything else you like to have around you when relaxing. The last thing I would add to complete and modernise the space would be artwork on the other blank walls (or photos) and new Holland sheer blinds (if privacy not an issue) or blockout blinds if it is. I hope that gives you some ideas to work with. Don't be afraid suttons06, just do it! If you don't do it, you'll never know. And make sure you have fun along the way. I love your bright colors and they tell me you have a bubbly personality so enjoy, experiment and make it yours. Good luck! Sense of Style Interiors xo...See MoreWindow treatments in our spare room
Comments (18)We have custom made blinds from Spotlight in our bedrooms. On the tall narrow Windows I put dual roller ( that is privacy & blockout) on the large windows we put roller privacy then Roman block out over the top. While they all look lovely & I am more than happy with the quality they do restrict the breeze. It is difficult to have privacy and a fresh breeze. Which I never considered at the time of purchase....See MoreWhat was your latest home-related purchase?

Comments (20)Hi diviabhi Here are a few links to companies which supply the roman blinds you are after (blockout & sheer). I would suggest looking at a few, getting an idea of the type of blinds you are after, doing a cost comparison between them all. You might want to request an obligation free quote. Of course, depending on your location, some may be more suitable than others. Fabric/Material, Exposed/Hidden Tracks, Motorised/Manual, Cordless/Corded and COST are all things to take into consideration. http://www.kresta.com.au http://www.victory.com.au http://www.luxaflex.com.au http://www.sunway.com.au http://invisageinverloch.com.au Take your time and good luck with your decision....See MoreDebdo
