nben1, Hi, I would open a 42" to 45" opening on both ends of the wall between living and study. That would leave room for a TV with components in a unit below. A desk would be nice in the back left corner of the study, with art or photo above, a chair in the back right corner and a chaise or small sofa on the wall behind the tv. That would make everything look roomier and make the study more inviting. In the living an L shaped seating would be nice floating with a small console behind. Good luck!

hi, the idea of having a partition where proposed is definitely a big NO. As rightly pointed out by Interiorzz it falls at the entrance foyer which kills the look as soon as you enter. i would suggest swapping the drawing and the dining. if you could accessorize your balcony well and turn it into a rock garden - it would be a welcome view from your dining table - you could add a pretty hanging light above the table. the dining family lounge is 11'x18'6" as per your plan. I think thats a large space to play around with and it would give you a separate seating space which you could divide into formal and casual by using a chaise in the middle. the TV could find place on the bedroom one wall or you could turn the set up around and extend the 10'x7'10" room wall till where you have shown a partition between the dining and the drawing and put it on this wall. you could also make an entry to this room on this extended wall right next to the kitchen entry so you have uninterrupted walls in the foyer. The "L" shaped wall that results in the foyer can be treated with wallpaper or stone so its adds a feature to the foyer. hope this helps!

For giving a basic space planning, the floor plan is much needed to work out the seating and circulation space. I am an interior design student, will like to help you. Thankyou, for further details contact 9830416466.

hi....the width of the area is 5 meters....from the center of the tv area to the left (till the wooden partition) is 3m, and to the other side is 4m. tv is comfortable to watch from the wooden partition end, but very far from the other side. i had alsl thought of creating two seperate sitting areas, but not sure what we should add. I hv 6 meters of the existing sofa fabric, and hv the option of getting another seating made with it if required. pls advice! also, i tried another setting with the existing sofas. sharing the pic...not sure if the sofa handles in the middle look ok!
