      Hello if I can make a suggestion. Place the big TV on the wall where the bookcases are now, hung up. Then place the bookcases on the right side wall where the TV is right now. The sofa I would place parallel to the wall where the TV hangs then. Parallell to the kitchen as well. This would make it all seem more organized and calm I think and it wouöd make it seem bigger. Don't know if it works since I have not seen a full picture of the room of your end result, but I could imagine it works for all of you. 😊

      @@NicF22 Wonderful suggestion, thank you! 😊It sounds like a great idea to open up the room. I might give it a try and see how it feels! I have to measure some of the furniture... Thank you for sharing the idea! 🙏✨

      This is exactly what I was thinking to try. It would create 2 “zones”-one for kitchen and dining and another for the living room and TV watching.

      @NicF22 This morning we moved the furniture again! My husband was wondering why change the layout again, but luckily helped to move the furniture around once more...😂We had to move the kitchen table and fridge also, to fit the couch, but I'll post an update on Sunday 😊

    This change is very lovely. I wonder if Kuro would like a cubby-bed in the bottom right area of the left bookcase? Perhaps a memory-foam cushion with a cream or pale taupe zipper cover?

    Hello!!! It's so nice and calm!I respect that you don't want to put curtains in the living area ,but in my opinion a rod close to the ceiling and to linen curtains would frame nicely yout wonderful windows and they would look much bigger,think about it because the ceilling is not that high.I love the scandi style❤❤❤

The white chest of drawers definitely worked better. I do this move things around it’s amazing how you can change a space without purchasing lots of new things.

    The after is beautiful. You really warmed up the stark wall and I love the window without curtains. That’s not a common practice in the U.S. but I do love it. I use sheer curtains to get that light, airy feeling. Kuro approves!

    I like the new bookcases. The dark wood color of the cabinet is lovely but I understand wanting a calm look in a frequently used room. Would a low box kind of furniture work under the TV? I balanced my TV with a stereo. Less distracting to me that way. I also have beautiful fabric that I throw over it when it’s not being used. Like a changing gallery. It’s there but not a permanent temptation to just sit and watch. I love that your kitty was a wild little thing. Ours was born under a tree that had fallen in the woods.

    Beautiful place first I would put bookshelves in the middle of the long wall instead of corner in the corner a floor light would be appropriate exposure to all your children stuff would become more enjoyable tv perhaps on top of a chest with work better and use Chester drawers for everyday use desk is a beautiful piece but lost perhaps better suited as a bed side table anyway like you said you always moving things around tv should not be on the floor you had a nice chest that would be great well enjoy it takes time

Kuro is so charming, and such a good supervisor! I was enjoying the video, then you made bread and I was like, Yes! And then you said gluten free, and I was like YES!!! A video on making the GF bread would be fantastic, complete with recipe. Great music once again. Congrats on your move to the city!
