I've inherited this house and started some renovation work. My problem is how to decorate the living cum dining area. The colour palette in my mind is beige and orange as The highlight. On wall 1 I would like to put the tv. But I don't how how to arrange my chairs and sofa and the dining table which we r yet to buy. The 4th wall shows the kitchen door. This room will be mainly used as a family room and to entertain very close friends. As we have a formal sitting area downstairs. Please help me with your valuable suggestions. The pictures from the Houzz are for reference . However I'm unable to upload any more pictures from my gallery. Sorry for that .

I feel partitions are not needed. You already have too much for the space. Adding a partition will shrink the space further. The simplistic solution, you do not wish to discard any furniture would be to paint all the walls in lighter pastles. And use some wall painting frames to highlight certain walls.

Thank you for the suggestion, that's the first time I've heard of magnetic track systems! They definitely seem like they'd add a modern feel but I'm not in love with having a track visible on the ceiling as it feels like that might draw the eye more so than a few recess lights. It seems like even if you use the track lighting you still need to position the magnetic light system to highlight certain locations of the kitchen, same as recess you just have a bit more flexibility with changing the placement. If you were to use track or recess lights in our kitchen, which features would you choose to place lights near?
