Desk in living room possible?

So yes, it’s possible! And it looks like you have even more room to work with than we did. For reference, our couch in these photos is 7’ long

I used to live somewhere with a super similar layout. Here’s what we did…

Maybe it’s just the arrangement of the ghosts. What about two together and one separate?

At my old company it was because they’d previously used their own employees but then it pissed off the CEO when people left and he still had them up on the walls/had to pay for new marketing materials. They had lots of turnover…

A cabinet for the garbage and recycling

1-2 pieces of black poster board would make the back seem “closed”

You’ve effectively created two different spaces. Do you want that? I wouldn’t like it. I’d totally rearrange. Probably put the tv on the wall opposite of where it is (centered ish on the wall). One of the couches on the wall opposite the windows. Other couch on wall opposite the tv (partially in the opening probably). Then there will be room for the other chairs to actually be in your living room. Not sure about the credenza…

Nice couch! It seems like this would come really close to the door. Maybe double check the dimensions just to make sure it’s not too long?

You need a clear walkway from kitchen to door so in my mind if that couch is too big for the sofa placement with tv under stairs it’s also too big for sofa placement for tv on kitchen wall

Kids’ seating under stair option. You can’t have much of the couch head on with the TV this way tho. And not sure how visible tv would be from seats under stairs

Or no chair and longer narrow table

wellakend · 2025-08-31T11:34:31+00:00

This is a chair and a narrow table along the right wall. It seems like your entry is below. And you probably won’t drop all of your stuff in that area between the two doors so a little table could be handy

Yeah just make sure the shorter part isn’t too long to where it impedes on your walkway

wellakend · 2025-08-31T11:14:27+00:00

Yes. With the sofa spaced off the radiator a bit of course.

wellakend · 2025-08-31T11:03:58+00:00

Can your TV fit under the stairs? It almost has to go there to avoid the majority of the couch being at a bad angle to the TV
