So essentially you want to start over. We can help, so let me start by suggesting a few things that definitely need changing.

You could use a longer TV cabinet. It will look more balanced and better ground the TV.

The art and shelf and little wall hangings behind the chair are way too small for that wall.

The mirror doesn't reflect anything worth seeing twice. I'd replace it with art.

The valance on the window is dated. It should go away.

And there might be a better furniture arrangement. This one is totally focused on the TV and there's a traffic lane in front of it. It's also not set up for when you turn the TV off and just want to have a conversation. It's best if a room is set up to do both.

Do you have any inspiration pictures to share so we can get a sense of your style?

Try moving the TV to the opposite wall and placing the sofa to face it. This will create an entry from the front door.

This is the new view from the sofa:

You want to redo the whole room and don't know where to start. Picture frames are not a starting point. Room arrangement is. You need an arrangement that works to determine what kind and sizes of furniture you need. Until then, you won't even know where the frames belong.

The solution to this kind of problem is multifaceted and complex. I'd recommend buying a couple of hours of consulting time from an interior designer. They will offer a fresh perspective. They are also design professionals and will come to you with a wealth of experience.

Well, tdeepat, I've given you several suggestions and you've responded to none of them. I've even Photoshopped your room to show you how it might look with a leather sofa, two chairs, bigger art, and a new furniture arrangement. I can't do any more without knowing what does or doesn't work for you from what I've already suggested.

Maybe a long narrow bench under the window. Sorry I couldn't turn it properly, but you get the idea. I wouldn't put anything there that would block the light.

Oh gee, thats what it is...I thought it was a cabinet you could use for books or decorative items! Do you have another place in your home to move it to? I truly think first things first; shop for the sofa - whether you decide on leather or fabric. If you are purchasing new chairs, do that too. One could be larger than the other, but best if they are the same height. Then shop for carpeting. Then you can decide on paint color. I'd keep it light. Your tv stand is fine; After you paint, don't put the mirror back on the wall. It seems too big for the room. Maybe your new sofa could be moved to the longer wall (facing front window); and 2 chairs with a table & lamp between them on the wall where your current sofa is located. It would also be ok to have a table & lamp centered in front of your window, since the window is large and the view wouldn't be that obstructed. If you get a new door, find one you like that has at least a small window on the top, or a larger more decorative one. I've been in numerous homes with living rooms just like yours.

Here are two layouts for your room. Using one of these provides you with a designated 'foyer entry' area and a living room area in your room.

This new floor plan is to scale and the sofa shown is 3'x 8'. The room will work better if you can keep the sofa at about 7' in length. That means sofa without really wide arms. Coffee table will work in the space.

Beverly's last floor plan will probably work best because the TV is not across from the window. You can also reverse the sofa and chairs depending on which one you prefer for watching TV. However, I would probably move the window seating to the opposite wall for two reasons: 1. you can look out the window, and 2. it leaves you less blank wall to decorate.

Find your sofa first. Purchase a good one. You'll pay more but it will last forever. Also be sure the scale of the sofa is right for the room. Then work from that to make your other color and textural options.

These leather sofas from American Signature & Rooms To Go are 88" or less and would fit in your room. Stay away from the real overstuffed sofas because you room is not large enough to accommodate their bulk. I'm hesitant to even show you the first sofa, but I aware that lots of people like the recliner sofas.

Don't get a reclining sofa. You can't even use a coffee table with them. Get Hubby a recliner instead.

I would also STRONGLY suggest before you do any shopping that you move your current furniture into the different arrangements and see how they work. Choose the one that works the best for you, then measure so you know how large or small each sofa or chair needs to be.

Also, do not get bonded or bicast leather; it's a total waste of money and will not last. You want top grain leather, at least on the seat and back portions of your couch.

Leather is a good choice. Just avoid the big bulky ones. It will fill to heavy for the room especially if you decide on a brown one. I like this one because of the low profile back and arms. Also like that it is open at bottom-again makes it feel less heavy. Added bonus it reclines:) If you went with something like this I would pair it with a fabric chair or chairs. Something with a pattern you like that works with the color of the sofa. Try not to choose a pattern you will tire of after a year. Once you find the chairs your options for color elsewhere (walls, floors, etc) will come more easily. Have you ever tried floating a sofa or a couple of chairs to make the room feel more separated from the entry? It would mean placing the TV on another wall but I would try to do that either way and treat that wall as an entry. That is assuming the door I see is an entry door:) Hope some of this will help.....

tdeepat, it will make your living room seem smaller, but that's not a bad thing because it will also make it feel cozier. Right now it doesn't feel like a living room at all. Your current arrangement makes it feel like an entry with a traffic lane in front of the TV (even if you never use that door, the feeling is there) and no way to sit face to face and converse.

Turn it around so this 13 x 18' space becomes two, an entry space and a living area that is closer to square. You'll find it looks and works much better, I think.

Nice choices on the seating. I like the canvas a lot. I think the metal art is going to look puny.

I would say no to the swag on the window. It's as dated as valances are. And be careful not to get too small a lamp for the entry. It will look best if it's proportioned about like I show in the renderings below.

Your paint color looks orange, not rust, on my monitor, and it's an awful lot of bold color for that wall. A more neutral color will work better, IMO.
