Designer's Critique: What works and what doesn't in your room. |
 | The personality of your room is down-to-earth. It creates an emotional feeling of being intimate. |  |

| Hi Susan!
Thanks for your room review request. Great use of complimentary colors in your space, I love the wall color! And you are correct, the windows do make the space a little more difficult to work with but not impossible.
Right now your space is lacking a focal point and balance. Properly placed artwork and accessories will help add balance and a focal point to the space. For example, artwork of different sizes arranged on the window wall across from the entry, would help balance the awkward window placement and add a focal point all in one!
Window treatments would be another option and can be a good way to tie in an accent color to create harmony.
Replacing your two chairs with just one is a good idea, especially if you still need to house a unit for your television. If you need help with space planning, product recommendation, or any other specific questions, we would be happy to help! You can simply e-mail me directly, or select more options from Ava Living's online designer services menu.
Ciao!
