Sorry to be a downer, Suzanne, but the minute I saw your table I immediately thought bulk so I have to agree with Leelee, that it will visually fill an area, especially where space is tight. That said, I do love the table. The other thing I am looking at is the table with your sofa - the sofa is much more formal and delicate and suggests a period design, while the table is ultra modern, heavy and casual. I'm wondering what chairs you would put with the table to balance these differences out and that won't be swamped by the table. Love the example Dy has posted for you, he always has great ideas. There was a lady once on Houzz who had an extremely tiny home we helped her decorate and she went with predominant whites with shades of blue and natural elements and the result was restful and really beautiful. Her tiny rooms were beautifully decorated without making the rooms looked swamped. These make great backdrop colours and you can see from the two vases of flowers just how easy it is to add some additional colour. Keep a lot of clear glass for accessories too - lamp bases, coffee or side tables, vases, etc. These will create a more spacious look also while still dressing a room.

Hi! I agree with anniau. Your Living & Dining have heaps of space to furnish. I've designed smaller areas than yours and it was furnished perfectly. It really comes down to the the size of the furnitures you have to be in proportion with the areas minding the general traffic within the areas. Also I would suggest that your opening to the bed hallway relocated to your kid's retreat so you have the opportunity to extend your kitchen and watch the kids while you're in the kitchen :) I would place the fridge to the opposite side as well so it can be easily accessed from your entertaining areas easily. Just my 2 cents. :) I've attached a furnishing sample I did and a marked up plan of your house.

Go with your plan to feature colour Wall A and mount mirror on Wall A and place beachy art work on Wall B. My suggestion is to maybe consider using a paint colour for the featured wall that is tonally similar to paint on Wall B and not too dark so as to give room depth but not close it in with a dark heavy contrasting shade. Offsetting the hanging of the mirror closer (to the plant) could also add interest (and work with the shorter end of the sofa). Often going with you intuition is the best advice!!!

just my personal taste , I'd put the table and chairs in front of the window to the kitchen , and that would fill that area . I'd add a large bright print or artwork on the wall too . The lounge needs ( just my opinion ) the art changed -- its too plain and nothing to me ( I hope it doesn't have a deep meaning to you ) , and although the rug is nice , I'd like more colour -- a red rug or similar ( even a green or blue or purple etc ) BUT have that as the main colour in you artwork too . Then double down with cushions in a similar tone , and maybe a couple of potplants in pots the same colour . A riskier strategy may be to put the Ikea unit across the room , 2/3rds of the distance back , with a metre wide gap on the right hand side . The dining area behind it , the couch across in front of the window . You'll still see the view every time you walk to the couch , you can 'spin around' to look if you really want also . It has a slightly better flow ( if it fits whilst still allowing access around 1 side ) , but I don't really like how everything on the Ikea unit is sort of on display on both sides . Try and get clever and add material and it would look like the cheapest of student flats IMO -- so avoid tacky haha .
