    Default Rearrange my Furniture

    Hi all! I need some help with my living room. First of all, let me say that I love this room, but I don't quite know what to do with it.

    The picture window starts at the floor and I hate having people see the entire back of the couch from outside. I also feel like it is so far away from the fireplace, that when we finally start using it, we won't get the warmth from the couch. I've been thinking of arranging the furniture so that the couch either has it's back to the piano or is facing the piano and bringing in some armchairs, but I just don't know how that would really look, especially because, as you can see from the second picture, the foyer looks into the living room and that might block the view.

    Do you have any thoughts?

    What a gorgeous room! I love the colors and the wood floor.

    Hmmmm..... could the couch go opposite the piano, in front of the white railing? Then some chairs in front of the window? Or would that cut off the "path" to enter the room?
