Our living space is a semi open concept, with the kitchen and study being visible, making the space seem more open. We also leaned a tiny bit quirky with our decor choices. The burger ottoman and soft toys add small touches of colour and enliven the space, turning the house into a home.
Since we don’t have any built-ins, we have to get creative with our storage. This coffee table has a bit of storage space which we use to hold our party games in easy reach. Essentials like our remotes and other bits and bobs also live here.
Another way we worked around the space was to have a free standing TV instead of a TV console. We “concealed” the cables and our wifi router within a basket behind the TV and additionally made use of a faux plant to further block the view of any trailing cables.
A little side table in this space pulls double duty as an air cleaner! We also love decorating with dried flowers as they are low maintenance. The tray also serves as a “station” for our gaming controllers which keeps the space looking neat.
