We recently moved and our space is basically empty other than the couch in the pic. For the space visible in the pic I've uploaded, we are looking for suggestions for a coffee table, TV/entertainment stand, rug, a small sofa/chairs, curtains, a dining table, and some art for the fireplace mantle. We are open to a new couch as well but strongly prefer to keep it. We will also be adding a wall mounted 50'' TV on the wall across from the couch.
What pieces of existing furniture, lighting, art or accessories do you want to keep in the design?

The entrance to our home is on the right hand side and the wall on the right hand side is a set of large french doors that open to our condo's shared hallway with wall to ceiling windows. We are planning to add some curtains and are open to suggestions. To the left is our dining area and we are planning to put a dining table there and are open to suggestions as well. I will add a couple pics of this detail shortly. We are open to adding rugs but won't be changing the flooring
