A long narrow artwork on the right and two artworks one above other on the left.

A built-in tall bookshelf on the right and a long narrow artwork on the left.

A plant on the right if it's not too close to the heat of the fireplace, or a fake plant, and some floating shelves on the left.

Storage below and open shelving for books/display above on both sides.

Great suggestions from macyjean you could add shelves, built in low storage that you could stand a beautiful pot or planter, love the panel inset wall or you could add wall lights , depending how it blends in with your home.

I would look for drinkable water, then look for food. Can't live long without water. I would also create a shelter. I would then make a message along the beach using vegetation in big letters in case a plane flew overhead. I would then have a swim if it looked safe and think of it as a big adventure.

Hi Gioenne... We are empty nesters but have two dogs (one large) which is why there is no coffee table. I've ordered two small side tables from a local furniture maker which will have a modern feel but made from reclaimed wood.. We let our dogs on the furniture so it has to be durable... I'm leaning towards modern low sofas. We entertain a lot in summer...

Hey July07! What is the overall style of your house? What are your preferences with Art? At www.chamberlaindesigns.com.au we have a large range of art, and also the ability to customise- you find a piece you love a we can get it painted or printed to any size you like. I noticed the blue/grey lamp in the corner there, maybe the below 'Great Blue Heron' will suit your taste. Let me know!

Definitely requires wallpaper or paint. I would probably go a textured wallpaper like a bronze /gold weave wall paper. It will give the area deapth and frame the space to make a statement. You have the furniture and space for it. Large art or a mirror. I would possibly keep it rectangular or squarish. A rug would soften and fill the space but would have to be selected carefully to ensure no tripping hazard. Maybe something patterned (replicated through abstract & lines like the legs of your table, with a pop of colour and upgrade the vase of flowers to reflect this colour. Basis of design is replication whether it is colour, shape or pattern.
