Include a buffet to the longest wall to give height and add more china space. Now separating the room, with a moveable screen it helps to create "disconnected" rooms.

This room is dull and boring, the fireplace and the TV armoire are both focal points but are placed next to each other. The room is set up like a maze of furniture. The couches are to far apart for trouble-free conversation. .
             The first thing to be done is create many different focal points. Form a "hallway" behind the conversation so that there will be no disruptions with people walking threw.
