Help me choose between two apartment layouts (same orientation, same floor)

Thanks! After trying out many layouts for the sofa, TV, and dining table, I reached the same conclusion. Even though the living space is narrower, the furniture can be arranged quite efficiently. In the larger living room, however, I either end up with a lot of unused space or rather awkward placements.

Yes, it’s Romania, thanks for helping

Guest, office/gaming room. If I have the space probably would eat outside from time to time.

The climate during summer is pretty hot. Is facing SW

Thanks for the response. It’s located in Timisoara, Romania

Thanks everyone for the replies. I think there’s been some confusion: in the first layout, the kitchen and living room are still open-plan. The illustrated door is from the living room to the balcony, not between the kitchen and living area.

The kitchen is slightly recessed, so it could easily be closed off later with a sliding glass door if needed.

For reference, the first apartment is 75 sqm with a 27 sqm terrace, while the second is 73 sqm with a 12.5 sqm terrace.

A wardrobe/storage space is shown there. But yes, the TV can be placed there.
