Dining Room Layout Problem

by jett

My dining room is 8x15 feet long. One wall has the front door, a section of wall, and a large picture window in it.

Then at the bottom of the picture window I have 3 steps, a landing, and then more steps to the upstairs.

Right behind the 3 steps is where the picture (large) window is located.

Also at the other end there is a doorway into the kitchen and on the other wall a doorway to the basement (same wall as steps, just at the other end of room)

On the other wall is the opening to the living room which is an angled opening of about 6 feet which is right across from the front door.

When you come in the front door you can walk right into the living room or turn left straight into the dining room.

No matter where I put my furniture I cant get it to look right. No matter where I put the furniture it seems to look terrible.

PLEASE HELP!

Christmas is coming and my room looks horrible,

Thankyou
