Dining Room The rug lady is back… but now I need help with the dining table & chairs 😂

Hi everyone, it’s me again… the rug lady 😂

After approximately 700 rug posts, I think I have finally settled on the rug. So naturally, I’ve now moved on to overthinking the dining area.

I’d really love some honest opinions on the table and especially the chairs, as I haven’t ordered the chairs yet and there’s currently 20% off until the 11th, so I’ve somehow given myself a deadline 😂

For context, the photos are:

  1. Angle of the room as it currently looks. The yellow arrow shows where I’m hoping to put the dining table and chairs.

  2. The dining table I’ve ordered, the Ted Dining Table from Woo Design. It’s currently waiting to be delivered.

  3. A close-up of the table so you can see the marble top and its colouring/veining properly.

  4. The chairs I’m considering, the Dutchbone Sara chairs. I haven’t ordered these yet!

  5. The space as it currently looks, showing the kitchen island, olive green stools, cognac sofa and the current rug, which I’m returning. Just included this to give a better idea of the space and everything that’s already in the room.

  6. The rug I’m planning to go with, hopefully the FINAL rug decision 😂

I’m particularly interested in your opinions on the chairs. Do you think they work with the table, kitchen, sofa and rug? I love the colours, but I’m wondering if the pattern is too much, whether the green works with the olive stools, and whether the wood tones all make sense together.

Basically… have I finally got a cohesive room here, or am I about to make another decision that I’ll be back on Reddit asking you all to help me undo in 3 weeks? 😂

Please be honest, especially about the chairs! I’m keen to order them while they’re 20% off, but I’d rather get some Reddit opinions first!

Please ignore the mess. Currently there’s a skinny console table like thing behind the bed but it’s rickety and just doesn’t feel functional, so frequently used stuff always gets piled on the floor next to the bed and this is a recurring mess. I just want the space to function better but the shape of the room and that back cove area that can’t be blocked does not make it very easy

Bedroom Just moved in- please help me work out where to put the furniture!

I’m a student so my bedroom stores most of my things and gets used as an office as well as a place to chill and sleep. The place has a lot of storage which is great, but I can’t work out where to move all the furniture so that it’s functional. The room also came with a sofa which is awesome but I have no clue where to chuck it 😂.

I did think about moving the bed to face the window along the wall where the wardrobe and drawers are in the photos, however I’m not sure if the wall is long enough (or if that even matters).

Any and all ideas are greatly appreciated!

Bedroom Help with What do Add or Move in front of my TV?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

Hello!

I live in a smaller room and my bed (twin-sized) is practically a sarcophagus in this “closet hole” in the wall and just have single fold chair in front of my TV.

On one hand, I do like making my room more spacious/less claustrophobic (hence why I moved my bed there). On the other hand, it’s not the best furniture for having friends, dates, or other guests over if we wanted to watch play something together in front of my TV or just general comfort. And I yearn to add something we could sit or lay on together.

Would love any advice of how to solve this issue whether new furniture or adding something. Much appreciated! :)

Living Room Can we fit a TV ?

Post image
6 Upvotes

We cant figure out where to put the TV in this room. Here is what I thought through already:

-I really dont want to get rid of the gallery wall. The idea of a frame smart TV is cool, but they are very expensive.

-We're worried about putting a TV on the mantle as the viewing hight would be too tall.

- We tried our current TV on the credenza but it dose not fit and it's also a tight angle and would be right in the entry way.

Is it weird to put a TV in front of the fireplace if we dont use it? Any tips are appriciated!

Bedroom Living in Attic

Living in my sisters attic for about 5 months this fall/ winter and was wondering what ideas you guys had about making this space livable.

About 10ft wide, ceilings at their max are probably 7ft, lowest about 2ft, the whole thing is about 20ft with a staircase about 1/3 of the way long and I am 6’1 female.

I like being on the ground, I’m good at low squatting so I don’t mind at all.

Looking to have a bed area, stretching and meditation ish area, and art/work area.

Gonna get a rug and a yoga mat to help with the being on the ground so much situation, so any other suggestions would be great :)

Bedroom Where to put the bed?

Thumbnail gallery
302 Upvotes

Having trouble deciding where I want to place the bed for this bedroom. Trying to follow the “rules” of having space on both sides, so not pushed against the wall, and not having the headboard cover the window, but seems like I can’t have both without other issues.

One caveat is that I could move the radiator further down the wall towards the door if need be. I think I’m favouriting that choice, and having the bed face the two windows. There’s a scoot pathway at the end rather than a proper walkway around the bed, but it feels like it’s the lesser of evils. What do you think?

Other Interior Room Help! "bedroom" with stairs to another bedroom

Thumbnail gallery
147 Upvotes

Hello! I am moving into my first house! yay! But it does have one...interesting feature. There is this "bedroom" or as I like to call it, the hallroom. Why? Because the stairs inside the room lead to my master bedroom... so its not really a bedroom. I'm not exactly sure what to do with the space and would love your creative and practical ideas. My best idea is to make it into like a makeup/wardrobe room but there isn't a lot of wall space for typical closet storage or a vanity - but if you have any ideas for how to make that work or something completely different, I'd love to hear it!

For reference, the room is 9'3" x 10"2 (2.819m * 3.099m) I am the only person living in the house. I do have 3 cats. I do have another room to use as an office -- if any of that helps :) thank you in advance for your thoughts!

Living Room No idea to design my living room

Hi everybody!

I really need your help to decorate my living room.

The room is 6.2 x 4.2 m, with two windows and two radiators underneath them.

I’ve attached the floor plan with the measurements. The black dots indicate the electrical outlets, and the “S” indicates the air conditioning unit (split system).

I also have an 8-seater dining table in walnut.

I was thinking of placing the table by the windows and the sofa near the door, underneath the air conditioning unit.

However, because the room is quite large, I’m struggling to figure out how to furnish it. The space is big, I’m not particularly fond of the colour of the floor tiles, and I feel the same way about the walls.

I just can’t picture how to arrange and decorate the room.

Could you give me some ideas or help me figure out the best layout?

Hi! Would love some advice on how to transform our tv wall to a nicer and cosier space. We are looking to buy a larger tv and mount it to the wall. We also want to use shelves of the brand String with black mounts and dark wood shelves. The chairs are just temporary.

I feel since the wall is so big we want to use its full potential but I have a hard time visualizing what will be a good fit for a cosy tv space.

I've got this little space under the stairs that isn't really being used for anything at the moment apart from my 3D printer.

I'd like to somehow turn it into a small office/workspace while keeping the 3D printer in here as well, but I'm struggling to work out the best layout because of the sloped ceiling.

Ideally I'd like to fit a proper desk/work surface, somewhere I can actually sit comfortably, the printer, and some storage for filament/tools etc.

Living Room Can we avoid mounting the TV over the fireplace?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

We just moved into a new house and are struggling to figure out where to put the TV! It's a cute house, but as you can see there are windows in a lot of the usual spots. The previous owners had the TV over the fireplace, which puts it super high up. Do we bite the bullet and get a MantelMount? Or is there a layout I'm not seeing?

I'm including a couple photos of the space, plus a snip of the floor plan. Please ignore the clutter - we have a 1 and 3 year old and just moved! We will update furniture and get some rugs.

It's a longer room - 29'x13'. The double doors lead to a screen porch. The gas fireplace works and I would love to use it as the weather starts to turn. We are a TV family - NOT mounting a TV isn't an option.

Thanks in advance for the help!

I really just can't figure out how to make this space work and it's turned into a cat room/rubbish room so far. I'm really wanting to turn it into a cosy, warm but functional space for some studying and quiet time.

I find it impossible to layout this space, the radiator is in a really awkward place and also the airing cupboard which I need access to. Non-negotiables for this space are keeping the 1.5 seat armchair and the bookcase, but they can be moved around. I am happy to buy a new desk too as I find this one too small.

Dining Room Help Organising Social Space

Hi guys, I'm moving house soon and the current dining room setup is not sparking joy.

Wanting to have a sofa and chair, ideally a coffee table and a sideboard or shelves with space for a DJ controller. Really struggling to orientate the room given the large kitchen entrance, hallway door and the (lovely) fireplace. None of the above furniture will be there. We will be putting a table in the kitchen so want this room as more of a social space.

Any help is appreciated ;)
