Layout Discussion:

• Starting with the entryway: I placed a bench beside the door for sitting and putting on/taking off shoes. I will also place hooks above the bench for coats and bag. Also as you enter the space to your right I designed into a small little seating area. Behind the two accent chair I placed a console table. This helps extend your entry area and give a place for a catch all. A great place for bags and/or keys. 
• You may also notice with the placement of furniture it gives you a clean line of flow down the center of the space. This will make the room appear larger and the layout cohesive. 
• I placed your dining area on the left front in front of the fireplace and next to your bar. This provides a distinctive area for dining. That way you don't have barstools from the bar area in your living room area. 
• I placed your living room area in the back right corner. This gives you a more open feel compared to being next to the bar. The chair in the seating area can even be brought over if you have more guest and need additional seating. 
• Also note the placement of the bench in the entry way and the chairs for the seating area make a hallway of sorts to the door opening in the right front corner. 
• This layout makes each individual space fit into a cohesive layout that flows well with the movement of the house.
