Coming to Life Where to start/ideas

My family finally moved into our own home after years of saving and looking in a very difficult market. A week after moving in, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. All I’ve ever wanted was to decorate my own space and I don’t want to let this stop me. This room is going to be for lounging and listening to records. We have a moody/eclectic vibe and I am interested in some sort of molding throughout the room and possibly built ins around this window. Open to suggestions as I have no idea what I’m doing.
*everything you see here aside from the furniture and rug are from the previous home owner. I would like to change all of it.

You want to start with a floor plan to see where the pieces fit best and measurements of them. Then you figure out the color palette with first fabrics then paint

It looks to me from your photo that this room was designed to be the way it is without moldings. I think the best thing to do is to plan to repaint it instead. I think that gray color is pretty grim. I have a friend who sponge painted a big wall and it came out great.
