My Combined Living/Dining

Neutral

Other

The room feels a bit bare like it's just furniture, but I also do not like clutter and want the focus to be on the views. That said, it seems like there should be some decorative pieces/plants on the built in cabinets. I struggle with the length of the room. I am trying to create separate multi-use spaces that flow together nicely without a hodgepodge of furniture. The table under the east-facing window is used for work, puzzles and morning coffee. I was hoping to be able to use the two chairs from this table when needed at the dining room table. They don't necessarily have to be the same, just complimentary. I think some of the pieces I have may be too high given the windows and I feel like there are too many furniture legs in the room - no piece of furniture sits on the floor. For the dining room, and in general, we do not like very deep chairs. We are smaller in size and don't like our legs dangling.

Anything that works, except I do not want to keep either of the dining tables or the dining chairs around them. This furniture came from a different residence and was not purchased for this room, but I do like some of it (the small swivels and the bar cart are midcentury restored) and would be happy to use some if it works to achieve the feel I'm trying to create I want really to keep the wall clock.

Yes, Area Rugs

The floor plan measurements are not accurate due to the built in cabinets under the windows. The dining area built in is 18 inches deep and the measurement from the built in cabinet to the wall is 10 1/2 inches. The living room area built in cabinets are 15 inches deep and the width of this area from the built-in to the wall is 14 1/2 inches. The overall length of the combined space measured from the built in cabinet to the opposite wall is 42 1/2 inches. The room also includes and alcove as you can see in the floor plan. This is all one big open space. The room faces south along the three large windows and east where the one window is located. There is a lot of light in this room all day. At night there are city views out the east facing window and the first and third south-facing windows. The middle south facing window is looking at a neighboring building.
