So if you are anything like our family…your living room took a huge hit during the Pandemic with all those hours of family time, Netflix and chill, and toddlers running and jumping all over the place! By September we had enough with our old couch and set up and visited West Elm. We ended up selecting the Harris Sectional (very durable especially with the fabric we picked out) and allowed us to maximize our apartment space which is at at premium in Brooklyn. We needed some show stopping art (I don’t care what anyone says- art makes the space and we needed some big pieces to break up the large wall behind the couch). We also accessorized the space with a rug (similar to the top one) that had some texture on it and could very honest hide some of the crumbs and dirt that three kids bring into any space. Lastly, a few textured throw pillows for the space. The above picture has our actual art and couch but similar types of rugs and pillows.

Round Storage Ottoman- Home Goods What an amazing ottoman- we had to replace the other one not just because we had it for so long but the shape would not work with this couch set up. This one has so much storage in there despite it being round I swear it fits all of our extra sheets/pillows/towels for when guest sleep over.
Rug- Home Sense
All Throw Pills- Home Sense (Tip from me to you- bring a swatch of the couch material around with you until you find pillows that bring you joy) These ones ended up being perfect because they are not only different textures but depending who is over wants more or less back support)
Lamp- Home Goods (Still want to replace with an arc lamp but not with 2 toddlers running around!)
