Living room plan from photo taken today. Furniture marked out.

Today I measured out the space needed for our 2 sofas, television and radiator. I used bricks to mark the corners of the sofas and a shovel to mark the position of the flat screen TV. Compare to the initial design idea below.

Our 2 sofas, TV and speakers, radiator and French windows shown.

This was my original plan before we hired an architect etc.
