Would you consider building a closet that would hold the platform on which your mattress would be placed? The outer side of the platform could have drawers or doors to the storage units under the platform. This kind of enclosure would work better for a twin bed than for a double, but it would provide a place where the bed can be concealed during the day time. Then, if you could allow a path between the bed enclosure and sofa, you could have the sofa face the dining table, or you could place the dining table at a right angle to the end of the sofa.

I have a sitting area cum dining area of 300 sq ft which is adjacent to my kitchen ( 120 sq ft ). Over all colour theme is white and in STRAIGHT LINE. All cabinets in the kitchen are of white colour with grey Italian tiles and Siemens equipments. Have bought off white (leather) seven seater sofa with a coffee table with a frosted green glass top. The area left for the dining is approx 90 sq ft. My questions are : 1. Should i go in for a square dining table with six chairs or eight chairs. What should be the area of the top. 2. Should I go in for a rectangular table with six chairs or eight chairs. What should be the area and size of the table top. Have selected one with an area of 21 sq ft with a frosted green glass top. The fabric on the chair uses is black. 3.should I go in for a round table. What should be the dia or radius. Have selected one six chair Armani casa table with a radius of 2.5 sq ft. It is black in colour. The glass top is also black and the fabric on chair is also black. 4. What will be the best colour combination keeping in view the kitchen, sofa etc in mind. Pl advise.... I

Another idea would be to draw the floorplan in scale on a piece of paper. Draw basic furniture on another paper and cut them out. Play with the furniture to see what could work for your family. Imagine yourself walking around in it (about 90cm wide walkways) and doing your daily business (hobbies and such). Also think about the sun shining in. And meanwhile create some ideabooks on here with styles and interiors you like. Use as many searchword combinations as you can come up with. Good luck!

I love your wallpaper (?) and those pillows with the dots look great in front of it! But I get the feeling that you have a lot of different styles in that room (traditional, pop-modern, ethnic) and the small pictures don't really add something. I suggest you gather them all on one wall, try to make that niche with the wallpaper the focal point of the room (can you center the sofa or the dining table in front of it?) and if possible, remove a couple of sconces...Do you really need them all?
