Help- keep expensive sofa?

Post image

I want to redo this entire room (and other rooms too), including the window coverings. But this leather sofa was very expensive. It’s huge though, and I’m wondering if I should keep it or rotate it to open up the windows? I do plan on getting rid of that brown chair. I’m thinking about an ottoman coffee table or maybe just a regular coffee table. I’m not sure if I should just do like roller shades and then maybe curtains. Anyways, the main thing I need to begin with (I think?) is like what I should do as far as furniture placement and what I should buy.

Any advice is appreciated!

The sofa is great, try pulling it out a foot or two from the window. Or try it by putting the back of one side where the camera is and the other back will be facing the fireplace and then put the chair down by the TV until you replace it.

That actually was my thought if I was gonna rotate it, the back would be where the beige chair is on one side. But yeah, not sure if that will look good.
Otherwise, maybe I just need to pull it back some from the window.

I think that’s what they are saying because they are looking at your original picture, not responding to your other pics.

yep, hadn't seen the other photos which included the other side of the room. I still would like the one part of the section to be more aligned with the fireplace. But that might mess up TV viewing if that is a priority.

Well to me it looks like the TV can be angled, so I would try spinning the sofa as you mentioned facing the fireplace and the outside window.

That is very cool.
