There was an error rendering this rich post.

I am looking to purchase new lounge & furniture that also alows easy tv viewing. The room is 4.2m wide x 3.6 deep and layout is awkward with several openings.

Upon entry, living wall (partially obscured lounge) lonly 2.3 metres long.

Any suggestions appreciated.

I think it would help if you used your furniture to create zones and give specific areas in the living room a purpose. Right now, it's all pretty open, and the sofa is far from the TV, so it doesn't feel like it's one cohesive space. What if you tried something like this and used the back of the sofa to create a little TV zone facing your largest wall?

Then you could add a bookshelf or something secondary where your TV currently is. It looks like those doors open up to an outdoor space, so I would almost consider that its own separate zone. Just an idea!

I would take a different approach to furnish your small but very cozy living room.

Firstly, if tv viewing is the priority, placing the TV opposite the glass veranda doors should be avoided at all cost. Although you don't really have much of a choice of walls, this sofa arrangement works very well to avoid sun glare and to let you enjoy the natural light instead of facing your back to it. I would use the tv console as the location to place drinks and consider mounting the TV on the wall if you want more room for a sound bar or snacks.

Looking at your floor plan as a whole, I notice you don't have any coat closets by any of the entrances so I've chosen furniture that is mostly functional: a tall storage closet behind the couch for coats/bags and an ikea shoe cabinet underneath the mirror. After adding what I believe is essential storage for an entryway, I would use the last bit of space in the room to add a cozier alternative lighting to the ceiling fan.
