A Cosy Living and Dining Room
The brief
The clients wanted their compact living and dining room to work for relaxing, reading, television and meals, on a modest budget. A chaise sofa, 120 cm dining table and bookcase all needed to fit. The central door and its opening limited furniture placement, and the route to the garden doors had to stay clear.

The layout
The furniture forms two connected zones, with space to move between the entrance and garden doors. The living area has a compact chaise sofa, while a round table keeps the dining area easy to move around.
Developing the design
Comfort within a small footprint
Finding the sofa meant balancing a chaise, a small footprint and an affordable price. The chosen olive-green upholstery adds depth, while walnut-toned furniture brings warmth against the existing pale floor. Curtains, a textured rug and lighting at different heights soften the room.
Room for dining and books
The 120 cm table seats four, with terracotta-pink chairs adding a warmer colour alongside the green sofa. A bookcase keeps books and personal objects within reach without obstructing the route through the room.
The final result
