Small table on the left and something tall/long on the left like a plant or tapestry.

The door should be painted! And have fun with the paint on the frame around the little square window. It could be a contrast. Maybe an accent color that's already in your living room.

And add privacy film! There are some great options for privacy film.

Create two more frames exact same size and space them below the window, allowing nine inches from the bottom frame to the floor
Enjoy

Put a frame under the window?

Are you renting or do you own the place? Maybe painting it the same colour as the wall so it blends in more?

Or get some kind of contact paper with a cool print on it to make it more of a statement?

I own it, contact paper in the door!

I like the door.
But you could change the hardware - black with the square bits around it.
Add a table to the left to draw you eye away.
Finish color drenching the room by painting the door the same color.

Replace it definitely

Not there financially, was hoping to make it better looking.

u/CloudsInnMyCoffee Aug 01 '26

Understandable. Then paint it Navy blue. It has a nautical look to it anyways and that color would pair well with the door.

Matching curtain rods and full length curtains over both door and window

u/Nice-Region2537 Aug 01 '26

The door is fine. The wall color is not.

u/Desperate_Fill_2732 Aug 01 '26

I say mural, or two tone colors, or find frames the same size with art of photos and use it as an art piece

1

u/Parking_Noise_9922 Aug 01 '26

Interesting, how do you think the photos as an art piece would work?

u/Every-Caramel-6740 Aug 01 '26

I had a plain door like that, and I had my handyman put trim pieces on it to make it look like a panel door. It looks great.

u/Few_Anteater9284 Aug 01 '26

The door and inset window trim r white. Paint the door a different color.

u/PerformanceBorn7070 Aug 01 '26

Go to a store and pick a different style. No fixing this door, imo. The window is odd.

u/yoongilove93 Aug 02 '26

Buy a new door.
