A larger rug would help too. Right now the sofa isn't anchored to the room and the room looks smaller than it is. A rug centered with the focal point of the room, while also fitting at least under the front legs of the sofa and extending 6-12" out from the sides of the sofa. Just research interior design and rug sizing. We recently followed the "rules" and our home feels much larger now when spending time in the new spaces.

Could you tell me the measurements of the besta doors you used? I am trying to order mine similar to yours please and which bests unit you chose and color thanks 🙏
Hello! I went with the "Walnut effect light gray" color. I bought it as a combo here: www.ikea.com/us/en/p/besta-tv-unit-with-doors-white-stained-oak-effect-lappviken-white-stained-oak-effect-s29568054/ It looks like they took that color down in the US. Maybe "White stained oak effect" replaced it? To be honest, I kind of like the new color more 😅
First of all I love your living room it’s what me and my girlfriend are going for in the middle of decorating our first house Very lovely tv stand we’re did you purchase this from and what’s the name of Cheers mate -John From England 🏴 ❤
Hi you may have answered this already but can you get the walnut doors from ikea as well? I ask that because I would want the doors to be the same color as the besta bench.
Hello! It looks like IKEA has discontinued the walnut effect light gray, atleast in my area. The next closest option would be the white stained oak effect, which I honestly think I like better 😅 www.ikea.com/us/en/p/besta-tv-unit-with-doors-white-stained-oak-effect-lappviken-white-stained-oak-effect-s29568054/#content
@@driggsy Ah I see. I actually prefer the walnut light grey effect and I believe many others did as well. I don’t know why they always get rid of the good ones. My only issue with the white stained oak is that it looks so empty. Like it needs to be painted or something to give it some life. Idk maybe I just prefer a little bit of a darker touch. My plan after seeing your vid was to purchase the walnut light grey tv bench and I had hoped that IKEA sold console doors separately that I could just put together my self but I may have to figure something else out. So at the time you purchased it did you get the console doors from ikea? Or did you buy the tv bench that came with the console doors? Theres a besta tv stands without doors and there’s others with them just trying to understand what you did cause from the vid it seemed like you had got the doors in a separate purchase or something but maybe im wrong. Apologies for the long writing.
@@igiveyouthefacts I can see what you mean. The "white stained oak" definitely doesn't look stained at all haha has kind of an unfinished look to it. When I picked this up, IKEA was indeed selling the "walnut light gray" TV unit with doors as a whole. I'm not sure why they discontinued it :(
This came out so nice! Definitely influenced us to redo our living room space too! Did you make the middle cabinet door a “push to open” we ordered three of the pull handles but not sure if it’ll work like that.
Woo! That’s so exciting So funny enough, we did the same exact thing. Ordered 3 handles, but ended up only using 2 because we liked the look more We made the middle door push to open but tbh, there’s enough space at the top of the cabinet and the door so you can just open it from the top with no issues Enjoy your new living room!!
Hi, I love this! Just curious where did you get your floor lamp? I’ve been looking for one for so long and have no idea what to get. Does it give off decent light? Thanks and I love your videos!
add the extra leg in the middle from ikea, otherwise the console will bend over time. trust me, been there multiple times and rebought the console 4 times already until I learned.

@@arirubii So funny you say that, we were also trying to avoid gray as much as we could! I'd say it's somewhere between gray and natural. We're definitely happy with how it looks, especially compared to our old one If you live in EU, you can get a really nice "white stained oak effect" that I'm jealous of (we can't get it in the US)
@@driggsy This is great to know! I ordered the walnut light gray besta earlier and started to regret it. I honestly thought yours was white oak at first hence why I asked what color earlier. This is reassuring for me because I think it looks great in your space! Thanks for answering!
This (decent tv) to this (a few inches smaller, looks like a projection), this was definitely not jesses idea. Real talk tho i prefer the old setup, u should ask people which looks better, Put(send) the new pic first, then the old pic right after and ask which looks better. U did get a good deal on the table , idk how the screws and a few metal bars,springs were pricey.
Your rug is way too small. The sofa should be partly resting on the rug, which would greatly enhance the atmosophere. And it would obviously give you a nice ground to place your feet on. Right now, the room looks disjointed.

Came to say the same. Such a good room with so much more potential of they had a better size rug.
I agree 100%. Love the upgraded console table, the legs and handles look great. Just get a larger rug. 😊
Larger TV console for the size of the TV too 😊
Looks much nicer, the extra flair really made a big difference... good job !!
Awesome job guys 👏. Looks great 👍
Thank you!!
your living room setup is beautiful before and after
I can tell and it looks drastically better! ❤
how many inches is your tv?
Those legs are awesome. Ikeas furniture tends to always be so short. Can I have the link?
Thanks! The legs really do class up the Besta imo.

Love the game systems on the wall!!!!
What is the name of the shelf thing from ikea cause im thinking about going with one
The shelf by the tv unit and with led lighting is the IKEA LACK
I’m just in the process of upgrading my TV space. Your looks amazing!
Thank you! I hope your upgrade went well 😄
Looks good either way
I like those shelves on the wall
Just went through you videos I can't find the full video on this revamp :(
It's like changing from a white t shirt to an off white with the same black pants

What’s the height from top to bottom with and without the legs.
I'm sorry I know you have so many questions, but may I please know where the beautiful coffee table is from 😊
loook so cozy! Great job

That Nintendo shelf is amazing
did the legs hold good in the "wood"? Because is not real wood.
Where did you buy the multiple level shelf where u got all your consoles ?
Right!!
That's from IKEA, LACK wall shelf
@@sarasegador8998 thank you
Beautiful! Links for the norsa hardware?
Is your Bestå out of massive or partly massive wood. Because ours here are basically cardboard
I agree I purchased one and returned it because it seemed terrible quality and cheap hardware

I had to custom cut one of them and was shocked to see cardboard inside
