I don’t even know where to begin! It’s an amazing space, but I’ve never lived in an open concept space. Ideas? Inspiration? **Note: I can’t paint the walls! 😭
The height of these ceilings is just incredible!
unfortunately I didn’t take photos of the west wall (windows) when I was in there, so this is all I have (for now). In terms of furniture, I’m starting over, and the only piece of furniture that may end up in there is a round swivel chair found here: https://www.roomstogo.com/furniture/product/brookeville-white-swivel-chair/12604472?region_id=002000&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PLA+-+Living+Room+-+SE&utm_content=PLA+-+Living+Room+-+SE&utm_term=&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21688047015&gbraid=0AAAAADuOUmoQdkt6LuEOnkwJYNG6CQfUC
My favorite way to define spaces is with big plants. And with all that wonderful light, you can have TREES! You could even make a rectangular planter (on casters maybe?) as an actual divider and plant your trees or houseplants in that. Even good faux plants add so much life to a space! And when real plants are in large pots, they don't have to be watered as often. I water mine well only twice a month and they thrive.
I agree with whoever said that rugs are a good way to define spaces. And large pieces of furniture are too. A long sofa or a piano, etc. can serve as partial "walls" to define areas.
We love our open concept house and find it's fantastic for entertaining. I bet you'll love this place too. Those brick walls are gorgeous!
Looks like a moveable work station/eating area would work well for the kitchen. Find yourself a beautiful rug to determine where furniture placement should go. If buying new furniture don't go too big. I think a modern, minimalistic look would fit well in your new place. If that's your thing, of course. Take your time deciding what appeals to you. Also love the windows.😀
I'd start from redesigning the space on paper or in 3d, e.g. homestyler, floorplanner, planner5d. I prefer the latter since it's super easy and versatile.
As for the suggestions, I like the ideas above, especially the workstation.
