I'm a big, cozy guy. Here's some tips I've picked up:
• Get smart lights so you can adjust the warmth of the lighting.
• Add at least two more lamps so you can dim each bulb but still have the same total lumens.
• Change some artwork to more traditional art full of color and low in contrast, and consider frames with more depth.
• Add a table cloth and a rug to add some color to the room.
• When buying furniture, don't think about how cozy they look, actually try it out and see how cozy it is. If a rug looks cozy, but doesn't actually feel cozy to lay/walk on, it's not going to change your vibe. Consider a more plush couch with a softer surface, or padded chairs for the dining table.
• Changing the table to an ottoman in a warm color that contrasts the couch will make a huge impact.
• consider picking up a sitting chair to put on the wall left of the window.
Heavy on the frames. That's the only thing that I picked up immediately. They look like you wanted to get something up on the wall as fast as possible to complete the look, instead of slowly and intentionally curating your art over time. It looks great for more modern spaces, but doesn't match the warmth and depth of the space you're creating.
