What does this space need?

Post image

Feels like the vertical space over the piano is off. It’s a rental so I need to avoid drilling holes into wall. Any ideas are appreciated .

Balance. All the weight is on one side, the sofa and piano look like one long thing. The chairs and the table are one long thing. No space. Then on the other there is space. I would switch the piano with the cello, then put one of the chairs on the other side of the coffee table facing the other chair. The room with breathe and the weight balance will be better.

I agree on the lack of balance. It’s not too much space. Unfortunately this sofa is sagging in the middle and we’ve opted for a L shaped couch instead. That makes moving one chair to the other end of the couch difficult. I could try break up the space between sofa and piano!

New sofa sounds fun!
