Better ways to optimize the space?

[u/Jotuski]

I'm having trouble figuring out if there is a better way to use the space, a different way to put the couch, different type of couch, different placement of other furniture.

We are thinking of getting a different couch and maybe coffee table, but the other furniture in the space, we wanna keep, I just don't know if there is a better placement. The big white cabinets, are cat toilet hiders.

One idea is getting a different couch where it's left sided instead of right sided like now ans putting the cat toilet hiders towards to walk and have the open side of the couch towards the entrance to the living room.

All and any ideas are welcome 🤗

(The stepladder is not a regular part of the furniture)

Great start! I really like your space.
My recommendation would be to bring that green rug out so that it’s tucked under the front feet of the couch by a few inches instead of stuffed fully under the couch. It might help, but I do think the rug might be too small for the size of your room.

I know you said you want to keep the cat cabinets, but they really are not doing your space any favors. I think your other furniture is a nice mix of modern and MCM with clean lines whereas that is kind of farmhouse style and draws lot of attention which is not what I would want for the cat’s litter box. But if you must keep it consider replacing the doors with some DIY doors with cleaner lines.

If you use the fireplace maybe consider some floor pillows if you’d actually use them. Plants are always a nice addition.
