My LR is a real challenge — a smallish, narrow, darkish but centrally located room with 5 doors/doorways and 4 windows, a major crossroads in my apartment and the first room you see when you enter (no foyer). At the moment, we're trying to use it for conversation, dining and TV watching, but really the TV is the main use (we often eat in front of the TV). Other rooms are pleasanter because they get more light, so we tend not to hang out there during the day, but we can't ignore this room because we walk through it every day. It is cosy at night, and I do like small, irregularly shaped rooms, so I don't find it unattractive, but it is a problem
. Any ideas for how to use it better, given the lack of light?
