Ooops forgot to post the rug i was considering. Its from West Elm BTW

I LOVE your space and what you have so far!

I would add the you posted and maybe a muted pattern smaller rug on top?

I would add side tables (round) with lamps on either side of the sofa. I would add a table and lamp in between the chairs. I think a nice square tufted ottoman with some tapered legs would look great in your space. Also, Maybe a nice green potted tree to the right of your sofa for balance with the window?

I know these are far from your colors but I think they do a nice job of layering rugs in this home.

Seagrass is super easy to live with. It basically repels dirt and any spills. I've had it for years under table where we eat all our meals. I bought mine at natural area rugs and am very happy with it.

Have you considered an indoor-outdoor rug? I like the Dash and Albert Cleo Blue, or something similar to pick up the blue in your room.

Indoor outdoor is the way to go, when they get soiled you take them outside and clean them. You'll need end tables and a coffee table. I'd look for light natural wood for those, even a driftwood color would work. Look on Etsy.com I'd keep the lamps organic like stone or natural materials. Will you be adding window treatments? If so I'd only do a very gauzy one.

A large tripod floor lamp would help balance the other end of that wall :)

I love your space and can't wait to see more! For the blank wall i would put a vintage window frame with mirror glass to mimic your real windows.

artillery thanks never thought of layered rugs. hmmm that could bring some color in without being too overbearing

nosoccormom thanks for the website suggestion-- great stuff on there.

suero i am impressed with your photoshop skills. Indoor/outdoor rug makes a ton of sense. We get a lot of sun in the room and i was concerned about fading (chairs are actually Sunbrella for that reason). Dash and Albert has great stuff. Been trying to avoid white in a rug b/c the kids are already making a mess of the slipcover sofa (at least its a slip cover). Wondering if that is still a concern with indoor/outdoor???

yayagal i got some great stuff on easy and agree that organic is the way to go. not putting window treatments on the sliders but will be putting in simple looking light filtering roller shades on the windows. Agree on the end tables but not sure yet on a coffee table-- was thinking glass top with a driftwood base but the kids will make a mess of that and i am concerned about safety. Aktillery's ottoman suggestion might be a good call. It is a small space so not wanting to overcrowd it.

errant and tannatonk like the ideas for the blank space thanks

Consider a striped carpet & separating the artwork above the sofa.

thanks Beverly I tried a bunch of art layouts but not that one-- looks better thanks!! Was concerned about too many stripes but that actually looks interesting hmmm. Really appreciate you mocking that up too it helps to be able to "see" it

i think the art should come down until you're settled on what else goes in there. it feels very tight ...not really something i want in a beach house. i don't think the arrangement works... sorry.

zeitgast,

Maybe consider a seagrass woven coffee table for in front of the sofa.

Could you tell me who's sofa you decided to purchase? Looks very nice in the room.

thanks kateskouros i get what you mean and do sincerely appreciate the honest opinion

good idea (again) Beverly thx
