1. You have some great ideas. Our problem is we have two focal points: the tv and the fireplace are on opposite ends of the room – and it’s a pit living room. We have gone over and over it to come up with something. Oh, and we have an L shaped sectional faced toward the tv. We’re thinking of getting rid of all the furniture and building in our own furniture to fit. Any ideas would be very welcome.

   1. 2 accent chairs flanking the fireplace would make this condition work even with the layout you have now Sandy

2. I have a very beautiful but oddly set up room. There isn’t a focal point …I need help!

   1. Check out my video on how to create a stunning focal point in the living room M 👍🏻☺️

3. Hi Julie, My downstairs is a small open concept space. My dinning area is 13′ by 7 1/2′. It’s in between the living room and kitchen. On one side is a pantry and a sliding door on the opposite side. What type/size/shape dinning table should I get? Thank you.

   1. Hi Duyen, check out these videos for more tips on layouts and measurements: 1) dream space series- how to measure your space for the right furniture 2) awkward space series- open concept layouts. That will answer all your questions 👍🏻☺️

   2. @Julie Khuu Thank you 😊

4. I have an awkward space for the living room and I really don’t know how to design it. I know I do want a sectional – however, because it’s an open space with the dining room on the other side, I have little room left to put the TV elsewhere than on the biggest wall. I am also a huge book lover so I was thinking of having a big library in which to include the TV… but I worry it would be too busy.

   Too many questions x) ahah

   1. Check out my awkward space series for more tips! The episode on open concept layouts will help guide you 👍🏻☺️

   2. @Julie Khuu Thank youuuu !

5. Julie I need your help! My mom and dad’s living room is driving me crazy with the layout! The main entry door is in the middle of the room and the space is a rectangle with a fireplace in the center of one of the walls. I’ve tried so many angles and I need help. Is there a program i can use to see a couple of layout options, any recommendations? please help! Love your work, your just simply amazing 💕

   1. Thank you for watching Daisy! Check out the long and narrow room episode in the awkward space series- sounds just like your condition that I cover. I work in autocad, but Plan your room, roomstyler, Floorplanner, 3Dream, Sketchup are all free programs. Good luck!

   1. Never too late to chase your passion Jada 🙌🏻

7. Hi love all the tips on how to set up the living room. I bought my biome 2 years ago and I am not happy with the builders layout of my leaving room. Nothing I do seems to look good. My living room is very small and has an odd shape. I have an open floor plan and the only think I am unhappy about the house is the layout of my living room. This is a cry out for help!!!

   1. Check out my videos on open concept layouts and measuring your space in the Dream space series Adja. Lots of helpful tips to get you started 👍🏻

8. This video was helpful, as I have an open layout space that I’m trying to make into a conversation room not just to watch TV. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on desiging & decor

   1. Also check out my video on media rooms ideas for more tips Marissa! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻☺️

   2. @Julie Khuu Will do. Thank you again and many blessings unto you and your family. God bless you! 🙌🏾

9. I have a living room that’s very small with two walk out doors with a TV sandwiched between. Would a smaller tv or bigger tv make the room look bigger?

   1. A TV that fills that wall will make the space appear larger Tori

10. Thanks a lot

    1. Thank you for watching Rami ☺️🙏🏻

11. My mother lives with me in my house I been trying to decorate but she has her furniture in my living room and both couches is up against the wall pinning the new curtains 🙄 I can’t decorate the way I want to anyway all my furniture is mix match which I hate but the colors are in the light brown to tan colors I’m making a coffee bar on a smaller wall but her table will have to be relocated the flow just sucks

    1. Sounds like too much furniture which can definitely crowd the space Ms.Lee. Pull the sofas away from the walls just enough to operate the curtains. It will feel more intentional as a result 👍🏻☺️

12. I love your videos !
    I would LOVE if you could help me out with my large living room area my husband and I got our first house a year ago and I cannot figure out the right layout to our living room we have a 27×17 space and no matter how I place my new couches I don’t seem to love it 😒 when you come in through the door you walk straight into the living room we don’t have a foyer .

    1. Watch these videos:

13. I’m not an Interior Designer (it just my dream job is your job but unfornately I ended up doing house chores like many maids doing even if the occupation is really outdated & then the second job is to check the business workers but not the business owner of the family business actually two jobs are harder to do than just one even if both of them are easy to do because of multi tasking) just a bit knowledge like what you said that’s what I did is to figure it out carefully no rugs and fire heater in most houses in the Philippines the fact that it is a tropical country (only fire heaters are not included) not like the USA that all states has it whether it’s and old (chimneys) and modern houses to solve the problem because the other chair is in the front of the router it interrupted/can’t see when my parents, I or the visitors like my other relatives want to watch especially the tv remote control can’t turn on the light signal at the top plus there are no big or small beautiful rugs because it’s hard to clean the floor if I put on it instead I used a cover for table like cofee table at the front of the altar so that it wouldn’t easily dirt, if I put on it, it didn’t fit based on the house architectural style and this old house is not that small

    1. You may opt to use an outdoor area rug indoors, so much easier to take outside to clean while adding texture, color, and dimension to your space 👍🏻☺️

    2. @Julie Khuu thank you for the helpful advice Julie 😁

15. Watching this video really didn’t address my dilemma re seating. I have two armchairs and one loveseat. It’s an L-shaped living room/dining room set up. The loveseat is against the wall, while one of the two armchairs is anchoring down the furthest corner of the area rug. Here’s the problem: what do I do about a reading lamp for that chair (I read a lot of books!). It’s not near an outlet in which to plug a lamp, because it might as well be in the center of the room. Right now I have one floor lamp that I move from one armchair near my workdesk (it works for both chair and desk) to the other armchair in the middle of the room (long cord!). But it looks weird and is a tripping hazard. Thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    1. Use a remote-controlled light bulb! There’s a ton on Amazon, problem solved ☺️

    2. @Julie Khuu I’ve heard of these (first on Lone Fox). I asked a lighting store employee what I should do with the cord of whatever lamp or sconce I put the bulb in. Their answer? “Cut it off.” 🤔
