I also had the same recommendation of switching the mirror & calendar to allow the two styles to mingle a bit, and to give you bits of gold color on both sides of the room.

Another possibility might be to pull the sofas away from the wall a bit; that way you could put a table between the two, but it wouldn't have to be particularly large. A sofa table could be added behind the white sofa so that it doesn't feel like it is floating. The jacquard sofa has a lighter feel, so it doesn't necessarily require a table behind it, but even pulling it 6" away from the wall would get it closer to the other sofa. Then you could use a larger area rug and cocktail table between the two to tie them together.

Another thing I noticed is that one bookcase is mostly white books, while the other is arranged by color; currently, the colored bookcase is visually heavier. You could alternate a row of color with a row of white on each, so that there was both white and color on each side. This would feel more balanced between the two bookcases, while the rows of white on both would form a visual tie with the white sofa opposite.

You do have a noticeable style developing; good job!
