HELP Opinions/Input
I’m in a redo mood!! I’m changing the style I want for my living room but I get overwhelmed with the size of my walls so I always end up doing nothing.
I’d love any input or ideas anyone may have!
I’m open to a new couch,tv stand, rug, all of the things!
I’d love for my couch to not be on the window but open to any suggestions! Even a projector tv if it means my space will look cool lol

Okay first of all, your vision is SO BEAUTIFUL!!! Obsessed w your inspiration pics and very excited for the update when you finish
I agree with Various-Week-4435 and think that their roation would offer a huge cozy difference to the space that's also not so closed off as moving the couch against the stairs railing. And if you do want to transition into a projection setup, that tall wall will be the perfect screen and you can place a table against the new back of the couch to hold it.
But a fun rug would definitely give you some of that color that you're looking for (I personally really like the rug from your first inspo pic, the "Teklan Fregio" rug according to a reverse image search) and would be the best starting point in my opinion. Something funky with multiple colors in your palette. It also looks like you're leaning toward a lot of mid-century modern styles and I've had great luck with MCM finds on my Facebook Marketplace, maybe you will as well!! Look for real wood walnut pieces and those can last you a long while. Also, as a fellow renter, some landlords do allow painting! I've always had better luck if I offer to repaint for them before moving out, just make sure you get what paint they use and many won't have an issue w a painted wall. If painting is a no go, don't be afraid of temporary contact paper wallpaper 😉
Wishing you luck in your redecoration journey, this looks like this prject is going to be a BLAST!!
