Hello bobbi, Here are the pictures. 1) tv unit area 2) opposite wall ( area for sofa) , 3) enterance ( please suggest something near the enterance area that incorporates shoe rack and a medium length partition that doesn't look very crowded). 4) dining area. As I had mentioned that we are looking at contemperory designs that are modern interiors with minimalist in furniture to give more of peaceful ambiance. We also have a 8x 11 patio area connected to living room. Suggestion for that would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance and for your prompt reply. With regards, Bhakti

HI --- Bhakti -- Can you send a picture of your kitchen and dining and living rooms , please . It is hard to know what you are asking . It would be good for us to see the rooms .Thank You

Any ideas what to do with this space. The wall on right has access to master bedroom. To the left is the breakfast nook and access to the kitchen. The entry way leads directly into the living room and to the left is the dining room area, which I want to use as multipurpose (that allows kids to play) etc. Any ideas? The walls just seem to separated, do I have the furniture closer together?

Having an eye catching dining area elevates the over all interior space. There are three main parts to designing a modern dining area - 1. Ceiling design : It can have beautiful chandelier which adorns on the top of the table. Cove lighting can provide a dim lit ambience of a fine dine / mood dining. 2. Background design : the wall adjacent or parallel to the dining table needs to be decorated with an art piece, mirror, artefacts, texture paint or simply a beautiful console. The idea is to break the monotony of looking at a blank wall and see something interesting while dining. Mirrors are a good idea since as per vastu, reflecting a dining table in mirror brings abundance and health. 2. : Pop up those dining chairs from rest of the color palette. A pop of color will cut off the monochromes and stand out. The image below is a perfect example of balanced and well designed modern dining area. Follow us for more amazing ideas.
