Could pls provide more details viz - the North-south alignment of the room, what kind of seating u prefer( formal/casual), would u be looking to place a dining table too in the living room area, what would you be using this space for etc?

Rgds

Hey preeti thank you for your reply,
I would like to use the area in frOnt of the kitchen entrance for dinning.
That is between wall a and b.
How about tv n sofa?Builders point for tv is on wall c that seems not impressive for me.
Waiting for reply this time.

Hi, Thanks for the info. I hv a few qtns and suggestions--


Suggestions:
1. Since u wish to hv the dining area right opp. the entrance way to the kitchen, that will put it right opp the main entrance-way too. Hence u shall need to create a transition space opp. the main entranceway to block view of the dining.

2. In my view , a good place to locate the entertainment console/unit wud be on the portion of wall D that is directly opposite Wall C. Your living room seating can be arranged with wall C as a back-drop .(Maybe a L-shaped sectional with the back-less portion toward the balcony doors).

This way, the TV can be viewed from the dining table as well as the living room area.

Questions:
Have u considered locating the entrance-way to the kitchen on wall C instead of its current location? That way, the dining table cud be place b/w wall C and D and the living room cud be b/w walls A and B.

Also could u pls provide the exact dimension of wall C?

Preeti

U are right leme answer ur qs

Hi Preeti before i start let me thank you again!

Suggestion-1 i completely agree with you, but what kind of transition would you suggest

Suggestion 2. i agree too, but let me tell you, wall to wall is 10 ft , backless portion would be confortable enough to enjoy the TV?

I had considered your question, but as the previous owner has made the kitchen nice i would not like to touch it.

1 question. which is the soft looking dropped ceiling in new trend? this is the pic i would like to have , but not so loud.

Hi,

Are these pictures of ceilings of the actual living/dining space, or hv u posted these as a reference, looking for something similar? A lil confused here....

WRT the transition space, pls check attached pics of a similar space created using a shoe cupboard/ display rack. If there are budget constraints and/or space constraints, then a simple bead curtain can also act as a demarcation device b/w the transition area and the dining/living area.

To answer another one of ur qtns, the backless portion of the L shaped sofa wud be like a chaise lounger.

What kind of opening is there to the balcony? French doors or otherwise?


Preeti

Well the windows are frenchdoor,
Ty for the Suggestion of the transition area partition
Ceiling pics are of my neighbors flat like same area of mine.
Well i liked the style of those ceilings but it's too loud for me.
1st pic is living room area n 2nd dining area ceiling.
U can suggest me the ceiling u like n latest trend.
Thankyou preeti

Hi,

You can go for a floating false ceiling with cove lighting (similar to the pics u have uploaded). Just use neutral LED strip lights instead of any coloured( Viz Blue as used in the pictures).

You can also use textured paint on the ceiling to create more drama.

Have posted some pics as reference.


preeti

I was thinking of the similar kind of ceiling,I am more sure about it now thank you.
I appreciate

Glad I could help. All the best. Do post 'after' pics once your place is done.
