    When you upload that kind of videos I always pause before you reveal the fix, and think what I would do to fix the space. And I'm usualy right because I've watched so much of your content.

    In one of the videos you mentioned that the number of seats in the living room should match the number of seats on the dinning table. That this rule still hold true with the additional stools you added or are they seen as temporary seating?

    Instead of using stools to close off the space, lay down an area rug. Adding stools will just clutter up the room with too much furniture.

  • @tic857
    @tic857 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a small living /dining room like this, the thing that is making me frustrated is that where you place the two arm chairs is a very large window, which is where most of the light comes from. You had placed the cough on the right side, but I can only fit a small couch due to a floor heat vent thats in the middle of the room, I cant put it on the left wall because it would block the doorway that's in line with the door, and I cant figure out how to have seating for 4 people.
