Hi I am needing help from an interior designer for my snug.
Hi I would be most grateful for any help from a designer with what sofas, lighting, rugs (colours and styles) I could put in this TV snug ( the snug is this little space off the diner). I do love eclectic and I have a leather sofa in the other living room I could use) As you can see that room needs cleared out!! TIA x

Comments (3)Ok, first of all I think we have very similar tastes because I looked at the pics you tagged in your idea books, but this layout is not efficient at all. your working triangle is non existent and I think there is way too much crowded in one corner. The island is staring out into nothing, and definitely needs to be rotated 90 degrees and I think the shape looks like something you would see in a bar. I am currently doing my own kitchen in two shades of painted cabinetry and will post my drawings and actual images, and then some images that you might like. I think the sink and DW need to be in the island. The fridge needs to be integrated to avoid this much stainless steel since you clearly like a more eclectic, non modern look, and the hood can be more elaborate. I personally think a 48" range with a dramatic hood on that back will with the island turned the correct way will be a nice focal point for your kitchen. You could also do a microwave drawer in your island, that way you only see the range from the front. Also, where is your pantry? Where are you storing food? The second image is a range hood you will probably like The third and fourth are drawings of my kitchen, and the first is a painted on painted kitchen with whimsy you might like. I will attach photos of my project on an additional feed since 4 photos is the limit....See MorePlease I need help advice/tips on redecorating my bedroom, Thankyou.

Comments (2)It's difficult to provide decent advice with limited information. Issues to consider: - access to the front door of new house, is it level or on a low slope? - is there level access from all external doors? i.e. no steps up or down. Do you need a ramp building with handrails? - is there a toilet downstairs? Do you need mobility aids like grab rails and emergency call systems? - doors need to be wide enough to get through. Assuming you use a wheelchair you may need wider doors. - is the new house on a single storey only? Bungalow? Obviously better if it is as there are no stairs to navigate. - steps and stairs generally - try to avoid properties with these or make sure they are limited or have a low rise and large tread area. - age of new house. The newer it is the more likely it is to more suited for accessibility. The older it is the harder it will be. New houses have access requirement regulations to comply with. - do you need an accessible kitchen? Larger space needed with low worktops for wheelchairs? Not sure if this is any help but maybe it is..?...See MoreNeed help with my sitting room
Comments (5)Your room looks large and lovely but with an entrance at one end and a fireplace at the other can seem a bit long. Firstly take EVERYTHING out. This will show the room in the best advantage and get rid of clutter. Only put back things you absolutely love. I would put two sofas or a sofa and two chairs (they don't have to be a suite) in front of the fireplace OR get a solid coloured L shaped sofa as it seems you are orienting the room toward the TV. You could then put a nice rug under a light-feeling coffee table (maybe glass and wood to pick up your chimney breast) in the middle. This would allow you to get rid of the multiple small side tables. I would lighten up the alcoves alongside the fireplace, either paint or light wallpaper. Get a proper piece of furniture for the TV to stand on. TV stands are ugly. There's lots to choose from. Try IKEA. Take down the heavy curtains and put in Roman blinds in a print fabric you love (try to find one with at least 3 colours) and coordinate with your rug. You could then use colours in this to make/pick throws and pillows. At the end near the door you could put in a small table and your rocking chair and make it like a separate area for music or reading with a nice standing lamp. Get some inexpensive drum light shades to update the lighting and put in another standing lamp by your sofa, as mentioned above, and lower your pictures to eye height. Good luck!...See More- last year
last yearI think painting the walls a darker hue, as Sarah suggests, will create a cosy cocooned affect, just right for reading or watching tv. Some floor lamps perhaps in brass and rich velvet sofas would be perfect. F&B Oval Room Blue (first pic) is a lovely mix of blue and green, as is the darker Inchyra Blue. Here’s some cosy ideas.
PROlast yearHi wendy!
I agree with Sarah go with a nice dark blue, add a light brown leather sofa some beanbags, lots of plants in a white or lighter colour vase, artwork on the walls, rugs (a personal favourite with this sort of look is a cow rug or something that covers most of the floor). Don't be afraid to go large on things you buy this includes plants too!
Adding lots of different textures will create that snug effect you're looking for so don't be afraid to go crazy on pillows and throws! Also, layering lighting too will help. I always go by the three lighting rule.
I've added some photos below for reference!
1 - main lighting2 - task lighting
3 - accent lighting
I hope this helps!
Kind regardsJess

I’m not sure if the blue would be too dark? I have limited colours on my ipad but might go for a buff cololour as shown (but a cleaner version). You have a mix of industrial and mid century so would continue with that. Perhaps a fluted coffee or side table to complement the island. A chalk sofa with a leather armchair and berber rug

If you’d prefer to go light and airy with the white, then tan leather sofas, warm wood and a caramel or cream rug with wooden lamps would create a cosy Scandi look. Add cosy textures in cushions and throws. The first pic isn’t a snug but that’s the sort of thing I mean.
