After

The sofas are moved to an angled V position in front of the window.
Two rattan chairs and a coffee table finish the conversation area.
An antique secretary is set next to the front door to visually balance the weight in the room.
Finishing touches include three lamps, artwork and collectibles grouped in themed arrangements around the room.
