The reason I'm asking is because we've just moved house...we've left a small house and moved into a large one. The new house has two sitting rooms in addition to a large kitchen and a dining room.
I've realised that the two sitting rooms look empty even though they're quite small rooms.
One has a large sofa in it, a big, heavy bookshelf...tall one. It also has a desk and chair.
The other sitting room has a small sofa, a coffee table, a middle sized bookshelf....and that's all!
I don't go for a lot of ornaments but feel that perhaps this is why the rooms look sort of empty? What am I missing?
They both have open fireplaces and I'm planning to get nice rugs for both rooms...I also have some nice paintings to hang...will it look better then?
