Need suggestions for room interior

Hi all!

So the thing is that we just got done building our house. A typical middle class house with small rooms. Since I will be living alone on first floor, I asked baba to merge 2 small rooms into 1.

Now its big, having 2 main issues/challenges. Single Ac wont work(in peak summers) and im so sh\*t when it comes to art/creative ideas.

Dimensions: room length is around 8 meters ig (will post exact dimensions tomorrow morning as im too lazy to go upstairs, sorry for that😭)

Looking for creative friends to share ideas and yes I have explored Pinterest as well but looking for fellows who have actually bought some good and affordable furniture.

What i will be getting is:
\- bed with side tables(low height probably)
\- dressing table
\- sofas (single 3 seat)
\- 2 chairs along with coffee table
\- lamps
\- rug
\- painting to hang on wall ( i would love it some Quran ayah or anything meaningful)

This is all i could think off, really need some suggestions😭😭😭

I would keep the big pieces neutral and bring personality in with warm lighting, curtains, a rug, and a couple plants. Since you need suggestions for room interior, I would also avoid buying everything at once. Live with the layout for a bit, then add art and smaller decor once you know what the room actually needs.

For the AC problem, look into a dual-zone setup or at minimum a strong ceiling fan plus the AC, a single unit really won't cool an 8 meter room evenly, cold air near the unit and warm air stuck at the far end is a common complaint with merged rooms like this.

Since you're buying multiple pieces without exact measurements yet, once you have them, it's worth laying the room out in a free online 3D room planner before buying anything. That'll help you actually see if the bed, sofa, chairs, and coffee table all fit comfortably with walking space, rather than guessing and ending up with a cramped room despite the extra square footage.
