ssuresh316...I hope all the pros on Houzz are in agreement here. Your room can be built as you envision it but we pros leave those sort of questions to a different kind of pro. Joanne is correct in that you need an engineer...but call a structural engineer. Civil engineers do roads, drainage, utilities and surveying. Structural engineers tell us how to make the building stand up.

I would suggest using a blackout and thermally insulating roller blind, and sheer drapes inside that. You would be able to use the sheer drapes most of the time, and the blinds for hot sunny weather or TV when the sun is in the wrong place.

I may be wrong, but I think this was intended to be a living room and dining room. So I would move the whole seating area down to where the rug is in front of TV and get a table and chairs.

Hi Nikita, First and farmost, you have very beautifull coushion on sofa, from where you buy it? You can check the videos of Small budget Big makover first session series in youtube. In One such house in Gujarat, Muninder and Bishakha coloured the old sofa set with whtie (The sofa is like yours) and changed the centre table. Interestingly, the family also had your kind of sofa set and they also want some modern style. The architect duo did not changed the sofa, just changed the colour. Yes I found it in youtube. it is the house of Setu Upadhyay. the link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85GNhyLeVnM Another suggestion is that you have many tables on the room. You can drop few chairs and opt for a single centre table
