Small Japandi living room before and after: a cramped room made lighter
A narrow apartment living room with a bulky grey leather recliner, a black gloss TV unit and a glass coffee table, redesigned in Japandi style with the living room design tool set to a small space and this idea as the style reference. The sofa kept its place and size; the window, blinds and floor stayed.
Try this on your roomThe starting room
In the starting photo, a large dark leather recliner fills one side of a narrow room. The black TV unit and the glass coffee table add hard, dark edges, and the beige walls look flat even though a big window lights the room.
What changed
- The recliner sofa is shown in a cream textured fabric, in the same place and at the same size
- A low oak coffee table replaced the glass one
- A slatted oak media unit replaced the black gloss TV unit
- A jute rug, a tripod floor lamp and a potted olive tree
- Framed art on two walls and a round mirror beside the window
What stayed the same
- Walls, ceiling and the bulkhead over the window
- The window and its vertical blinds
- The air vent and the white access panel
- The light laminate floor
- The TV and where the sofa stands

Who it suits
Small or narrow living rooms where one large sofa has to stay. Changing the sofa's color and the dark, hard pieces around it does most of the work; with a big window like this one, the pale colors read light rather than flat.
Limitations
- Furniture sizes and positions are visual approximations, not measurements.
- Colors on screen differ from real paint and materials. Check them with physical samples.
- Results depend on the photo: its light, its angle and what is in the room.
- The sofa is shown in a new fabric at its old size. In a real room that means a new cover or a new sofa.
- The art and the mirror are added decor. Check your wall space before you buy.

Frequently asked questions
What is the small image in the corner?
It is the idea this case used as its style reference. The tool takes the colors, materials and furniture style from it and keeps the room from the starting photo.
Is this a real home?
No. The starting photo is a sample room we generated to test the tool, as the note under the image says. The result is what the tool made from it, without retouching.
