Design Dilemma Living Room

Living room layout

2 years ago

we are stuck with what to do with our living area. The angular walls are making it difficult to position a tv and family friendly lounge etc i would like to eventually fill in the bar but that walk is also on an angle!

Hi Joe, if you are not going to use the bar you could place a tv on a stand on top of the bar and use the two solid walls opposite to place a sectional facing it. Round side tables or ottoman would soften the effect of the angles. The tv & stand would face the corner of the opposite walls for easy viewing. The two angled sections of bar/wall would meet behind the tv. You could then furnish the space towards the entry step down with some comfy chairs, coffee table & round rug to create a separate conversation area that ties with the tv area. Later, you could plaster the space above the bar. Your tv would still sit in front of where the two walls meet however it would enclose the family room, look more finished and stop you from looking past the tv into the bar area. Congratulations on your home, I think houses with different floor levels look amazing.

Ok the house was staged to make it seem bigger but more like a waiting area than a home. Tv on the wall couch backing to bar

This is a tricky one! I'm not a fan of a TV dominating the room either. An L-shaped couch could be a starting point - thinking about furniture that isn't always oriented towards the tv but flexible when you do want to watch a movie. We also found having a lower, longer sideboard / tv unit made the TV appear smaller in proportion, so not as focal. Good luck :)

something like this with TV and/or heating and storage on the wall opposite the double doors and low cabinets with art work and/or open shelves along the other wall and lounge chairs in the window space that can be rotated for TV or towards the views

Hi, thanks for the reply and the wishes! None of the items are mine, I just shared the pic of the old owner :) the dimensions are: 3.4 m right wall. 5 m wall to wall distance. 2.3 m from Left wall to the opening of door toward pergola. I initally kept TV on the Right side wall, but when I keep couch the distance will be maximum 2.7 m and then at the back will be dinning and a way to cross for pergola. now, if I keep this was toward window. the room is not coming out as apealing and looking bit clossed. I need to change the couches but waiting for the best layout before I finalise one. I hope wonderful people like you might help to solve my concern!

Without sizes of the furniture and the wall sizes it's almost impossible to suggest much . IF everything is to scale , you probably can't have a 3 seater couch , because even if you put it along the 'picture window' side , there doesn't look to be much room for a TV and cabinet , and definitely not speakers and turntable , on the opposite wall . Spin 90 degrees , and the TV would go between the entry and bedroom doors , but the fire is in the way of a couch position ( 2 armchairs would be okay by the looks ) ; likewise the couch along by the window is then at a strange angle to everything , but the stereo along the other wall may work , although wiring behind the fire mightn't be best .
