Have you thought about painting an accent wall? The room looks great, but I feel like a pop of color would really elevate it. I'm thinking the wall opposite the glass doors.

Thanks for the suggestion! I have, but I'm renting and currently using it as a wall for the projector. Would be nice though!

Understood. Great space!

Ugh. Yeah. Renting too. Hate the inability to paint walls different colors.

Hell yeah to the Akira piece.

I'm in a similar position. Getting stuff 1) that I like, and 2) that all goes together has been WAY harder than I ever thought.

Could you share what kind of couch that is?

I bought in in Switzerland from Home24, it's called Schlafsofa Daru. I'm sure you can find something similar elsewhere though!

Not bad. I'd get some framed art for above the coach (something wider than it is tall) and on the other wall.

Nice, love the little vitra elephant hiding on the table

You get wonderful light. How does it work with the blinds on the outside of your windows and doors? Do they raise and lower?

Thanks a lot! Yeah the light is really nice, especially in the morning, even have a little bit of a view of the Swiss Alps :) The blinds raise and lower electronically!

The furniture placement seems a bit odd. What’s your reasoning for placing the chair and ottoman in front of the coffee table?

If you’re going for a conversation setting, two chairs facing the coffee table would look a lot better.

Hey, thanks for the comment & suggestion. Yeah I agree it looks a little odd, but it's because the chair is facing the wall which I use for my projector (white loudspeaker looking thing)

Hey what kind of chair is that? I used to have one similar but much older
