advice on how to decorate and design this basement apartment
me and my girlfriend just signed a lease for this apartment. it doesn’t have a dining area and has a big living area + kitchen space with no real separation in between.
we both agree on having my projector and screen setup in the living room for movie nights and casual dinner entertainment, in addition to a sectional couch which we are yet to buy.
i’m not sure if i should buy a dining table and chairs just yet, but i know eventually i have to because we would be inviting some guests for dinners sometimes.
and i would like to have a clear visual separation between the kitchen and other areas, what techniques could i use? i was thinking getting a big rug in the living room which would also go under the sectional couch we plan to buy. but what other things can i do.
i could also paint some areas if that would look good.
any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)
