My house is really small and quite awkwardly shaped. Downstairs is only about 60 square meters and upstairs I basically just have my bedroom as it’s not very practical space due to the low ceiling.

The obvious choice here would be to just have the couch on one wall and TV on the opposing one but that just feels like a waste of space for a house this small. The two doorways also heavily limit where I can place furniture. However the room is also not large enough to be turned into two rooms so I figured a semi-open partition like this could be a viable compromise and it would then also allow me to create a little office space for myself which I currently lack entirely.

The only other option I can come up with is to block the left doorway and move it to my kitchen instead (the right doorway leads there) so then I could move the TV set onto that wall and put the sofa where my desk is here.

I guess I’m just looking for any thoughts or suggestions. I don’t feel like I have much of an “artistic eye” so I find it quite difficult to figure out a coherent interior decoration. The building part is my speciality, not so much the design.

This picture is based on a SketchUp model that I did so it’s to scale and based mostly on existing furniture.

    Is the half wall on which you’ve placed the tv optional? If so, I would place the couch opposite to where it’s at, in front of the window. The office nook in front of the other window. And the TV where the couch is right now. More distance between your couch and tv for reduced eye strain. Better use of the windows. You doll should be able to see outside when you’re working or studying. And better flow in the room.
