This living space is a perfect example of why visual scale is very important!
In the before photo you can see 2 love seats, smal rug, small coffee table & 2 tiny end tables and across from that an empty wall to wall built in book shelf.
A home of this size really needs appropriate furniture because buyers really need to see what the space would look like with larger pieces in place. 90% of buyers can not envision the potential of the space so when they see a small couch & small items the room feels way too big and that their items will feel “Dwarfed” which will make them think that they’ll have to purchase new items when that is not the case.
In the after photo we created a focal point as well as brought in a large sectional, 2 large armless charis, larger end tables, larger rug, and lots of accessories for the book shelf. Instantly it made this home feel the right size and inviting. We really wanted to show off how this is a great space for relaxing, or even entertaining because it is such a large space that will allow for lots of seating.
This home has been on the market for a while vacant and now it is staged I have a bet with the home owner as to how fast it’s going to sell lol.
