Pool table in living room
We have a pool table in the living room, which we really want to keep. At the same time, we want to reorganize the furniture and decorate the living room so that we can entertain people and make it really good looking at the same time. Any help is appreciated!

raksharaomr This is the photo of the other corner. We would like to add seating. Actually we would like to get a more formal seating instead of the old futon.
Thanks for the reply!

Dezign Studio Inc How about placing a sectional in place of the pool table, the pool table to relocate where the dining is and the dining to be placed where you have the sofa. The sketch may not be clear , but try if this suggestion works.

shelleyuk How about having a wooden top made for the pool table and using it as a dining table. Then you can remove your existing dining table and create more space that way.

raksharaomr Thanks for your suggestions.The dimensions of the pool table are 5'x8' and we need around 2' space along each side, so don't think we can put it in place of the dining. We need a way to design around the pool table.

shelleyuk But you then put your pool table by the kitchen area, used as a dining room table. You can give yourself the necessary space around the pool table/dining table. Remove your existing table. Move the sofa to the wall facing the fireplace.

I don't think you have enough room for a sofa, dining set and a pool table.

nikitasmom You could lose the dining table, get a sectional and this gas lift coffee/dining table http://www.popscreen.com/p/MTUzMTA1OTYx/Gas-Lift-Table-with-4-Storage-Ottomans-Table-End-Table-By-Homelegance-

bdennison harcoums is correct. Our pool table cam with a removable top and doubles as formal dining. Use the space being taken up by your dining area for living room seating.
