"Creating a comfortable and functional living room doesn’t require a degree in architecture or a two-year subscription to interior design magazines. It only takes a few simple steps to put together a living room that looks good and works well. First, choose a focal point. This center of attention could be a picture window with a great view, a fireplace, the television, or some artwork. Next, arrange the furniture around the focal point.
