Love it Leave it as it is!!

I love it too - leave it :)

Thank you all.

I can't really move the lounges - they do look oversized in the photo (more so than in real life, and they are very puffy at present as they are new)

My husband feels it's a bit cluttered for moving about...so I might pare it back while I consider...I did want occasional chairs as there are times when we have a bunch of people come around, but perhaps I can position them elsewhere and bring them in when needed. Also thinking if I had 2 light cane or 2 matching white rattan chairs it might look more unified.

Hi k4thleen. You have created a really lovel and inviting room. If you keep just one chair in the grouping, I'd suggest the one with bent/curved arms - it is perfect. I like the other one as well, but maybe it can be placed against that narrow wall where the white rattan table is. The chair can easily be brought back into the grouping as needed. Could the white rattan table then be placed next to the chair but under the window? Just wondering how that would look.

May I also suggest a small potted plant on the coffee table as it will bring in some green onto the white. Maybe something in timber a small well, small round or irregular shaped bowl.

Mean to say perhaps a small round or irregular shaped timber bowl on the coffee table as well, but now I'm thinking that's maybe too many bowls. Something in timber, tho.

You have done extremely well! I think the couches and white rectangular coffee table are great. The things that worry me are the 2 small round tables, the 2 occasional chairs you have now, (though I can see they are lovely chairs, but at different heights and styles that causes a distraction), plus the nest of tables as they don't go with you lovely rectangular coffee table between the couches and the placement of them. I feel there maybe just too many small tables in that immediate area. Looking at the style of the nest and the taller round table, maybe if you stripped back the tops of the nest of tables and painted the legs white so that they match up the other round table they would work together, but remove the small round cane table in the background.

I do like the taller occasional chair more than the low one and would try to find one similar. The low chair might be good in a bedroom. To have a higher back chair especially as we get older can be a good thing for guests that drop in and when you are needing to get up and down quickly as the hostess, (good for our backs and our take off). I think introducing cane though it is light weight and that is a good thing, might just be adding too many textures if you want a calm plantation style room. It would have to be a fine cane, maybe featuring the wove rattan sides. Taking another look at the chairs they are both nice chairs but I think you need 2 of the same style.

I like the fabric that features the muted lime and black and linen look in the cushions, just that small use of it as a complementary fabric is great.

I am wondering if you are able to raise up the palm so it is higher, and used as a more decorative element.

I am wondering where your couches came from and the mirror too, if you can remember. Thanks and I hope you find these suggestions helpful, Good Luck

Thank you for the feedback. Reading this makes me realise I should have removed the pieces that are not supposed to be there...like the round cane table, the painting on the floor, the styling on the tables...FYI the lounges are from Plush - very happy with the lounges but having an issue with the legs (which they are sorting out), the mirror is from Frame88 on Penshurst St in Willouby.

I absolutely love that combination. It always reminds me of my parent's house, since they have a very similar style. Neutral enough to complement any decorating style, this classic combo brings warmth and brightness to rooms. It's clear that designers also agree that white and wood are a perfect match since I've seen thousands of similar combinations all over design websites and, of course, Pinterest. I saw that my favorite furniture store, https://furniturevogue.co.uk/, also makes this combination in its photos. Therefore, I think it looks great, and you shouldn't change it.
