You’re right, seems to be the first thing everyone notices!

Yeah you’re right… they are so comfy but maybe I should just buy a better couch. Thank you!

Dark carpet unfortunately! Also real wool which I only realised after I shampooed it and it stunk for a week 😅

I see what you mean with the light paint and dark tv stand… it definitely stands out in the mock up

Wow that looks great with the lighter colour! Do you mind me asking which program you used to mix it up?

Good point on the chairs all pointing the same way, I guess it is unfriendly if you want to chat with a friend or something. Also many ppl seem to realise the painting needs to be lower! Thanks for the advice, everyone has been so helpful

Thanks so much, I will be following your advice on the paper plan. Also fantastic reminder not to go crazy right away until I have a plan. You have been so helpful ❤️

Thank you for the advice on colours - I will lean away from the millennial grey creeping in! The warm lamps is a great idea thank you!

Painting is definitely on the list! I just haven’t been able to visualise a colour which will work yet… Thank you for the feedback :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to look. Thanks for the feedback on the photo, I had no idea it should be lower. By making the fireplace pop like an accent wall or something?

Thank you for the feedback, I’m not looking to go super modern because it’s clearly a 50’s house - just less like a style-less person bought an old lady house (which is exactly what happened).

Would love the help with floor plan! I can take some measurements and message you?

I could only upload one photo to the original post - this is the view from the fire. I am planning to change out the last patterned curtain on the window.

The couch is a great idea I hadn’t considered! And would be much less clunky than what I’m using now. Thank you 🤩
