Nothing particularly special here, in my opinion... Actively disliking the coffee table...

I don’t like the zebra chairs or the floral ottomans

Crowded but otherwise ordinary.

There are too much straight-edge, hard lines. I don't mind spots of color and texture but there seems to be jarring color in big leaps, wadded up in the shocking flora and zebra stripes.

The color would be more wisely used with the same sofa, two chairs in a tomato color and one side chair in that tomato and lime flora. Delete the black table in the window and the wonk-sided table, work from there.

I think a large zebra rug could be good with the other deletions and additions. Even the glass coffee table would sit well on a very large zebra stripe rug with the tomato colored occasional chairs and one straight back floral chair but you must delete the black piece in the window. That is cumbersome and crowded, not to mention wrong place and the side table turned sidewise (yikes). That makes it appear even more like there was not room for everything, so they just put things in the window and wedge others in crossways.

I like it except for the chest in front of the window, and the end table I thought the drawers are suppose to face forward.

The idea of what the main room should look like today has changed. This room has too many hard angles and doesn't say "comfort" to me in any way.

It lacks appeal for me and I would have to make changes in the furnishings and bring different colors into the room.

Needs more red. The sofa is so blah. The chemistry beakers on the side table are a fun point of interest.

Thanks @jubilant

Too many pillows on the sofa and the green and white chairs have got to go. Also, those patterned cubes opposite the green and white chairs at the other end. OMG!

This is what some interior decorators are calling Modern Traditional, nothing close to traditional early America.

Sometimes, as in the case of the coffee and side table, a few pieces of modern are mixed with traditional that makes it Modern Traditional.

Nothing exciting or comfy going on that would prompt me to copy it. Very blah to me.

Everything is ok but the zebra chairs don't seem to go with the rest of the things. I don't mind these chairs and they would look fine in another setting.

I think there is just too much furniture in this room. I am in the minority and like the Zebra chairs and Floral Ottomans. I think are are different and add interest to the room.

I would replace the coffee table with a round one and rearrange the furniture.

The color palette is bland for me and the floral ottomans and zebra print on the chairs are pretty ugly, IMHO. However, I do love the clean lines of the living room. I only wish the arms are the zebra chairs and the mirror were squared up.

too much stuff and clutter--not into the patterned upholstery either

Really like the subdued colors. The paint is wonderful.

If were mine, I would remove a little clutter, but overall it is pretty.

I actually like the room,however I would change out the coffee table for a round table, and also change the glass top end table, but other than that I like it and I like the pops of color with the otoman cushions and the chairs!
