A current Client is moving from Tai Tam to Clearwater Bay. From a good size home with a gorgeous view - to a townhouse with another gorgeous view. Problem is - will the furniture fit and where does it need to go? The new place is slightly smaller.
All the furniture I am showing - I can supply.

FRONT ENTRY - DISGUISED OFFICE
I'm
suggesting to cover your desk with fabric and hide the mess
underneath.
Use your brown rug and find storage bins at Ikea that will
slip under the shoe cabinet.
Add a new office chair that is pretty when
guests arrive. I have a source for this.
I used the 2 remaining bookcases that are available. I would rather the bookcases in the living room be symmetrical. Here it's not as important - they are similar in design.
LIVING ROOM
LIVING ROOM
Here the funiture is placed in front of the window. Not conventional - but it give more space to that side of the room. You have the other door to go in and out of. There's actually room for an ottoman.
A living room should seat 6-8 people. You can bring the dining chairs over if needed.
The smaller bookcases surround the sideboard. It makes a frame around it. Then the large green painting is centered - together they make a grouping. The 3rd smaller bookcase is next to the stairs and the larger one by the sofa.
SPEAKERS - they are so large and the color is also very apparent. In a space that will become very monochromatic - they will stand out! They might fit by the sideboard wall.
Here is the more conventional placement. I do have a conflict in my measurements. I logged that it's 155" from the living room wall to the middle wall. But the actual measurements of windows and wall show only 144. Not sure where the other 11" went. I thought that both window groups were the same - I did not measure the living room side. They may be larger.
AMES chair - but probably don't have room for the ottoman.
Instead of an Ames - you could use an Egg Chair and keep the color neutral.
Color Palette of gray, white and browns
COFFEE TABLE
I would just use the tracks you have or we can get new very cheaply - and not use rods. Hide them all the way up to the ceiling in the alcove. Mine are done the same way.
Linen curtains will flow in the breeze and give your room a fresh atmosphere.
DINING ROOM
DINING ROOM
Capiz Shells
You dining room table is only 71"L. The Chandelier should only be 1/3 the size (or close to)
I haven't found a home for this yet......
DAUGHTER'S ROOM
These are the colors that are popular for a girls room - orange and pink. I found the stripe and the plaid. The plaid is really too light weight and the stripe is really fun. Children love a punch of color - WE could cover the bulletin boards with the plaid.
Below creates the Bohemian look that is so popular now.
SON'S ROOM
This is a fun fabric for boys. Navy and touches of red woven together. Will make a nice heavy fabric for a roman shade and bring some interest to a room that has no pattern at this time. I know you asked for cream with a blue border - but I just felt the kids would like something more 'fun'.
MASTER BEDROOM
I would like to try and make your master a little more cozy and romantic. Again, (don't hate me) but it's feeling more like an office space.
1 square = 10"
There is no room for your bedside shelf. You will need at least 20" next to the bed to get in and out of your closet. The shelf is 25" and there is not enough room on the window side.

If the dresser is opposite - you can place a TV above it. Then there is room for 30-32" wardrobes on either side.
Remember to leave at least 2" grace between furniture in case of mistakes and movement.
There is room for trunk or storage at the end of your bed! As long as it's low.
I cannot get these items in the room below...
If your bed were smaller with storage underneath - you would have a more functional space - also leaving room for bedside tables on either side. The rim around the bed is over 12".
The bed is 89.5 leaving 9.75 on both sides of the bed. You don't have room for side tables.
It just seems everything is in view - books clutter, clothes - you need ample storage.
TV ROOM
You could use a rug in here - soft to lay on the floor and watch TV. Also using the Thai Pillows. I would rather see the wire chair here - it's too casual for the living room - unless it had a formal cover.
