Mount it on a black painted wall. Don't pick the wall where the sun shines on (this wall needs to be able to reflect the light into the room, so no black on that one). If you want to add color, pick dark wood, black, gold/bronze, naturals and earth tones (brown, eggplant, burnt orange, greige, stone). Some accents (like pillows) in red, some teal/seablue.

The first thing that bothered me in this room is the distance between the seating area and the tv area and that both seem unrelated in everything. I think what you should do to pull everything together is the following: 1) Move that sectional away from the back wall and the curtains (placing couches against the wall is outdated now) and closer to the tv 2) Center the coffee table under the chandelier with the sectional placed 16 inches away from it 3) get a console table of a height equal to the sectional's back 4) place few decorative items, stacks of books, candles, lamp shades whatever you find suitable on the console 5) someone mentioned that the two accent chairs are not in scale with the room. I totally agree with that. You need wider chairs with a low back 6) A rug is a must and two are better than one, layered of course !! But make sure the biggest one is big enough to place all the seating on it. 7) pillows and a throw will add warmth and texture too...

A houzz contributor, not too long ago, had made a wine rack out of 4'x4' wooden pallets, that are used in the US to move a load of goods with a fork-lift truck. Perhaps they have them in your country. He cut them in half so they were only two feet deep and stacked them up to high counter height. The wood would be a nice contrast with your concrete, might add a little warmth to the space. cascio.offsite@gmail.com

Hello Kaushik, You can have a tall cabinet next to the door and stack them. What is interesting to know is that you are planning a chimney on a sliding window. Are you sure that's feasible ? We would be keen to know how that's done. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore
