Months of thought have passed. Finally zeroing in on wants v needs. We have this weird front room that is open to dr and k (imagine a “Y” flow with the front room being at the bottom and the two branches being wide molded framed doorways (no doors) opening to the K and DR. It’s also missing one wall because the whole side is open to the entry hall. It isn’t large enough to be a very functional family room especially with all the openings. The real family room is really large with a big fireplace and is down the hall where our york sectional is, really detached from the heart of the home. I thought I would make this front room that flows to DR and K a living room/sitting room with 2 sofas... we will have guests who will sit and stare at each other here, I mean converse ... yeah no, no we won’t... it would sit mostly unused like many formal living rooms of days past. What’s strange is this is a new home! Perhaps if we had a piano for a music room or a lot of books for a library, but we just spent 11 years moving around in the military! Guests would likely sit at the adjacent huge dining table to visit over a meal or hang out in the kitchen. I’m going the study route now and think a few built in bookshelves, a small computer desk, and a nice sleeper sofa makes really good sense since we have no guest space or place for our computer. I saw your post about the m3916 taylor king sleeper...any chance we could get our hands on one quick?
As for chairs for the cozy space I had imagined as a keeping/coffee/away space by the kitchen, I think 2 westwood tilt backs in cabrini toffee would be perfect, although I’m sure my husband will steal his right away and put it in the living room!!!
Would you like to post photos of the space for assistance?
I can call in a favor and get that TK Conner unit out the door in three weeks with an in stock cover.
