I agree with the comments...you don't have to have one. I don't have one and it makes my living room feel bigger. However, once in awhile it would be nice to be able to put my feet up, but then again that's what ottomans are for.

You can always keep an ottoman to the side somewhere to pull out when you want to kick your feet up and relax!


Breaking the Rules: Forgoing The Coffee Table

I've been reading apartmenttherapy for a long time, but this is my first post!

I think the room is too large to act as the dining room. I think it should be a more formal living room and the other room the "family" room. So to me it's OK to have two rooms near each other with couches...if one is more formal and one more casual.

I would do the 2 identical loveseats facing each other idea (or 1 couch or loveseat with two opposite chairs). The backs of the loveseats should be lower rather than as high as the couch you have in the room right now.

Then in the corners of the room,start adding some things with height--a tall tree, a bookshelf, etc. One might have an accent chair...
