Family Room Makeover Idea Board

My family room has been the one room in the house that has had more overhauls than any other room in the whole house.  Mainly because it has been put together with all kinds of things that I have had handed down for years and found at Goodwill.  Now it is time to furnish this room for the way I want it to look and the way it fits our lifestyle.

Here is an inspiration board I put together with items that I am thinking about.

1.  I do have a new off white sofa that will be coming soon.  It is a very small scale piece on the contemporary side.(Similar to picture)
2.  I also have a brass and glass coffee table coming that is like the one I am showing in the inspiration photo.
3.  I am keeping my cowhide rug that I currently have.
4.  I will keep my horse painting and sconces that I currently have.

Family Room Makeover

As a reminder, this is the current state of the room.

I added this french chair to this side of the sofa and it fits without making the room look crowded.

NOW FOR THE NEW ADDITIONS – – – –

5. I found a pair of charcoal gray recliners that I really like.  They have very simple straight lines and would go with the more updated look I am going for.
6.  I could either leave the french style chair in the camel upholstery or redo it with something in off white.
7.  I found a glass and brass console table that I like that would not take up any visual space and would work with the tv mounted on the wall.
8.  Brown wood blinds would be replaced with Bamboo blinds mounted high above the windows to add extra visual height to the room.

STILL TO DECIDE ON – – –

If I go with these items, then what to use for the second chair by the tv – either next to the sofa side or on the right side of the tv.

Also what kind of end tables.  I am thinking something light wood maybe with a gray wash.

NOW IS WHERE I NEED YOUR HELP.  Keep in mind this is a small room.  The TV wall measures 13ft.  The sofa wall measures 15 ft. and the recliner wall measures 15 ft.   So fasically 13 x 15 before you reach the sliding door.

Give me your input – what do you think?  Am I going in the right direction or do I need to change a few things.  I’m all ears.
